Thanksgiving in Parrydise

Today was a great day! We had a no-stress Thanksgiving and it was amazing. Each of the kids made a part of the dinner. Maysen made mac and cheese, Jorja made mashed potatoes and Preston made apple pie. Mike and I tag teamed the rest. (Mostly Mike... he is a WAY better cook than I am.) Mike loved not having a time he had to work everything around. It was yummy and fun. I loved it.

Stockton called and we were able to talk with him for thirty minutes. On Sunday he will become the new zone leader. One of the zone leaders is having an emergency transfer and the mission president asked Stockton yesterday if he would step into his place. Stockton is the only one who knows and says it is crazy knowing that everything is going to change on Sunday. It was great to talk with him. Last Thanksgiving without him! He sounds happy. Some members invited him to Thanksgiving, but then got scared because of covid. Instead they dropped off food for him and Elder Radley. I don't think Stockton was expecting much, but they dropped off an entire Thanksgiving feast. People are good.

Jorja took a nap on the couch with Bear while we were playing Gloomhaven. She loved it. I took lots of pictures. She loves that dog.
