I got those shoes returned last week at the Nordstrom
and it was really simple! They put the money back on your card! And one really
important thing, that drivers record thing that I sent in the mail to you guys
when I first got here, did you guys get that filled out and sent to the Mission
office?? And that is so crazy that Chase is leaving! His whole call time
has been since I have been here in Chicago, it seems like I haven't been here
that long but back at home tons of stuff has gone on!
But this week has been great! We got our Ipads on
Wednesday so we have been trying to get everything figured out on that all
week! The church has it super restricted and everything so I unfortunately
can't get my twitter back up and going but I guess that's okay. ;) We have wifi
in our house too because of the members that live underneath us so that is
really convenient because we can just do our facebook from here but it is a big
temptation! We now are putting our area books onto our IPads too and that literally
sucks. We have to upload all the information from it into our Ipads and it is
taking forever. It wipes us out and we aren't even out working! It sucks now
but once we have it all done it will be so convenient! But all this sitting around has gotten
me kind of homesick because it has been pretty boring here. I hate just
sitting in the house but we have to do it! Early in my mission I was just like
I just want to relax and read the BOM but now I would much rather be out
teaching and walking around! It is freezing outside some days but I love it for
some reason! It is dumping snow outside right now and it just brings a smile to
my face for some reason! I am beginning to love the snow and the cold weather!
But Liz’s family came to church yesterday together for
the first time! She has been progressing so much but there were tons of time
conflicts so we could never get them to come and we finally did!! She loved it
and she cried during relief society she loved it so much! Her kids made turkeys
in Primary and Oscar stayed with us!
Their whole family is doing so great and they do family home evenings
every Saturday and they are learning so much! Liz says she wants to get
baptized we just need to put her on date! Their whole family is amazing and I
love them so much!! They treat us so well and they are so happy so bringing
this joy to them is the best feeling!
But we don't teach as much as a lot of my friends in
other countries but that just makes me more grateful for the everyday little
successes that I am having! I am working my hardest! And I love everyone
that I have come in contact with here!
The members take care of us so well! For thanksgiving
we are going to a member family named familia Armendariz. They are so nice and
they are a great family! They have two kids, a daughter who is a little older
than us and a son who is just younger! They told us if we had any food that we
always ate at thanksgiving to tell them and they would make it for us! They are
so nice and I am so excited for thanksgiving so don't worry about me, I will be
in a great home! It is really weird not being with you guys for thanksgiving
but we will be together for eternity! I love you so much though! Have a great
week and stay healthy!!
Love Markell I mean Elder Eichers
