Lots of Visitors!

I love surprises--especially when they come in the form of former missionaries. Today it was Christine Lyons. She came in Monday from Canada and will be here for another week. It's just so great to see missionaries that you don't know if you'll see again or not. Christine has gone back to her former profession as a hair stylist or cosmetologist. She's also going to take a job with a contractor doing office work. She likes keeping busy. It was great to have a few minutes with her before she headed out to see friends in Lafayette.

Brother Tolbert used to be in the Denham Springs Stake Presidency but was called as the YM President a few months ago. What a generous man he is! Among other things he comes in regularly to take the Elders to lunch. Today the Assistants went to The Londoner--a pub & grill in Baton Rouge that serves great British food. And, lucky me, they brought an unsolicited lunch back to me. Thanks, Brother Tolbert!

New companions--Hermana Astle and Hermana Palmer. I probably should've been calling our Spanish Sisters Hermana from the beginning, but I just didn't think about it. 

Elder Bennett--the eternal clown--was playing with my phone. Can you imagine how much fun he is to have in the office?
