Hot Missionaries

 Hermana Catfish played a smorgasbord of hymns this morning

while Hermana ReeKay was finishing getting ready for the day.  

 

 I love music, so this was a great treat for me!

 

 Hermana ReeKay finished all too soon.

I could have listened to the piano for hours.

 

 One of my aunts in Washington was baptized yesterday.

Our family made her cards. Since the Hermana's are

part of the family, I asked them to sign the card.

My aunt is 75 years old.  It is never too late to be baptized.

This was a red letter day for our family!

 

 The Sisters are headed out to the library.

Then they will go shopping.

The Sisters have been so hot lately that last week
Mike suggested they go to the grocery store
so they could talk to people where it is cool.
They went to a nearby Fiesta store,

which has a lot of Mexican food products and kind of caters

to Hispanic taste. While they walked along with food in their basket
they were approached by an undercover police officer
who told them they didn't allow missionary work
in the grocery store. They were asked to leave. Oh my.

I know other missionaries have done this in the past.

They didn't know it was against the store rules.
They left immediately.

 

 The Sisters will also go to the church to play volleyball and basketball.

P-day is their day off (until 5 p.m.)

....and they always, always make the best of it.

 

I asked them if they were embarrassed about being asked to

leave the grocery store. They said, no.

Such is the life of a "hot missionary."

(These pictures were all taken this morning) 

Your Delightful Daughters

 The weather was a little cooler for the Sisters

this week. They seemed a little more spirited.

 

 One night they stopped by Sonic on the way home.

Sister Cat Fish says they love Sonic in their family.

 

 Today they were given permission to do a batch

of Indexing for the big church-wide push to go over

the current record. The church is hoping to top 50,000

indexers submitting in a 24 hour period.

 

Apparently all 50,000 people are attempting to submit

their batches at once. The Sisters were unable to even

pull up a batch to index, but they had fun waiting.... 

 

 We took a few pictures.

 

They were in a crazy mood!

I hope you enjoyed seeing your daughters.

They are delightful!



Obstacles

 

 The Hermanas have been having a lot of obstacles lately.

Tonight, it was rain.  A random storm popped up

about 10 minutes before they came in for the night.

They were drenched to the gills!

 

They are having exchanges today, so Sister Catfish is in another area.

She will return tomorrow. I'm sorry that I have not posted in the past

two weeks. One of my daughters had a baby on July 2 and I have

been doing Grandma Duty, helping her during the day.  I have been

home at night, but the Sisters have not been very talkative. It has been hot

and they are tired and ready to plan, so they head straight to their room.

They have had to knock on a lot of doors lately

and have not taught as many lessons as they would like.

Being a missionary is not a cushy job.
