Chapter 5 - White Out

Hi Everybody,
This week has been a lot better, and finally having a pday was the kind of break I needed! After that it was back to work. I've grown to love it out here. It will be hard work, and I'm always tired, but it will be well worth it!
  This week has been a lot less door knocking and a lot more contacting people. Most of the time they aren't home or they want to stop seeing us, but I guess we are just cleaning our area books out a little hahaha.
This past week was Thanksgiving!!! I'm so thankful for this gospel. It has helped my life so much! I'm also grateful for all the prayers that you send my way, and especially thankful for my family. I could have done this without them! I'm most grateful for our Savior and everything He did for us!
We had our zone conference and it was pretty cool to see the whole zone, and see elder Andrew again! Then we ended up going to go to taco bell, but it was closed so we went to McDonald's- it's so funny because we say a huge group prayer over the food!
FRIDAY! We did service for the Davis' and cleaned their gutters, then we went to Sam's club, and went to go get food for dinner, an we got quite a bit! (see some of the pictures down below) The pictures don't do justice, it was so good!! It's brother Davis' hobby to cook and he asked me how I liked my steak and I said medium well- (that's always how my mom has me steak). He said now that's where you're wrong, and I was taken back for a second. He said your missing out on all the flavor, he cut me some of the medium steak and it was tender on the inside with some of that blood in the middle, and it was good. I said my mom would never eat that because of the blood. He said that it's not blood, and that it's a misconception. It's actually a protein that's just red. He said most of the blood get s out when they process the meat.- so mom, you might have to try a medium haha it's pretty good!)
SUNDAY, we woke up to a white out!! Church was canceled, so we continued to get ready, study and plan. Then we were stuck inside so we took a nap (hahaha) and our cars where grounded, so we couldn't do anything with them. So then around 1 we got all bundeld up and walked over to bishop's house (one of my pictures). We made it to his house in all the wind and snow, and we had some pumpkin spice cake and then bishop took us to go feed the cows back near our place, and we got back into our regular clothes and helped him do that.  Then went back to bishop's house and played cards with his family which was so fun! Then we got cleared around 4pm to go out and about, so we went out to see all the roads and some of the drifts are pretty big.

Sorry this week's email is a little short.  Hopefully we'll start finding some people soon to teach!!
Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving!
Love,
Elder Roylance
