Orange Peels

Well these past few weeks have been great. The work here in Foley is still going and I don't think it ever plans on stopping!
On Monday we had the elders from Daphne come down, and the Spanish elders who live 100 yards away, and we played settlers of Catan! Good way to spend pday.
Tuesday was Christmas eve and so that was fun. We had district council and then we came back and went to a members house for an hour or two and by then it was time to go home
Wednesday was Christmas! Christmas was good, christmas on the mission is weird especially when it's 75 degrees outside. We spent almost all day at a members house and so that was super fun!
Thursday was good too, we did a car fast and so we biked all day which isn't the best but it isnt too bad
Friday and Saturday we had an exchange with Monroeville and that was fun, which blasted our miles but that's OK!
Sunday was as good as any other Sunday... great!!

So a week ago we got a case of oranges a guy picked off of his tree and then we got an electric juicer from salvation army for 5$ so as we peeled the oranges we put them in a cardboard box and when the pulp catcher got full on the juicer we would empty it Into that same box, when we went to move the box to take it out of the kitchen it broke and all of the orange crap fell out and. we juiced approxamently 45 oranges so there was a TON of stuff
Well bye guys I have a couple of pictures to make this email worth the read

Week ????

Hello All,

Well time here continues to amaze me, I've been out for just about 4 months and it feels like I've been here in Foley for about 4 weeks now.
This week has been great we went on exchanges with the Zone Leader and his trainee I was with the zone leader, it was great its good to sometimes get out of your area and be able to serve somewhere else and be able to have a different dynamic for a 24 hours.
We also had a huge stake wide nativity showing where people brought out all of the nativity sets they had, they even had a "little people" nativity set! brought me back to when I would play with the one we had back home! it was a really cool night, and they even had a couple of choirs come and sing.
We now have Spanish elders in our area! they live about 100 yards away from us, its super fun!
this Friday is our Christmas zone conference and so Ill have a lot to talk about because of that.
sorry its short, so much happens each week I forget just about everything that happens

Have a great week everyone!
