Toothless might fly through at any moment

31 August 2015

Friday was a normal planning and proselyting day, and then Saturday was a fun day. :D

We also helped with moving our ward to the new building. We brought stuff in, threw out magazines from the 1990s and early 2000s, and we helped clean out the cupboards where we were putting everything. There were things in those cupboards that had not been moved since the 60s...we also threw out a lot of that stuff because it had been chewed open and there were mouse homes in there...yeah, it was gross, but it's all clean now!

 

The new building is AWESOME!! There are skylights in the gym, which is in the bottom level, so there's natural lighting in there. The kitchen's next to the gym, with the young Women's rooms down there. On the upper level is everything else, but what's cool is that down the hall of the bishop's office, there's a wooden panel on the wall that when you open it, you can see down into the gym! It's so cool! And the chapel is in an A shape with dark wood, so it looks like a Viking hall. One of our zone leaders said, "watch out! Toothless might fly through at any moment." :)

So, we helped with that, then we had correlation, and we went home and I took another shower, then we went out and proselyted, then when we came home for dinner, there was my flight itinerary. After all the excitement and food, we went to stake conference. It was good! We learned about teaching the gospel to the family and that we need to keep the Sabbath day more holy.

Sunday was also Stake Conference. It was also good, and basically a further in-depth study if what we learned on Saturday.

Today, we just got back from our zone activity. It was good. We did some minute-to-win-it kind of games. Like you have skittles and a straw, and whoever can transfer the most Skittles from one bowl to the other in a minute wins. Another one is you put Vaseline on your nose and then, without using your hands, move as many cotton balls from one bowl to the other in a minute. Another one is how fast can you get all the tissues out of a tissue box with one hand? Or how fast can you move an Oreo from your forehead to your mouth using only your face muscles? Things like that. It was fun to watch, more than anything!
