We've just been strugglin down here and it's too freezing to go anywhere and we have no miles on our car.
It was one of the Elders birthdays on Saturday, so we got him a chocolate cake and they made triple chocolate muffins and then we had chocolate pudding and our new neighbors made us chocolate cupcakes, and we ate it all. So that was pretty much the best part of the week and I regret nothing.
It was so amazing to have Aaron come and take us out to dinner! The first thing he said when he got out of the car, was 'What is this place? It's like an armpit!' Welcome to Starke, Florida. Weren't even in the swamp of Keystone. But for real perfect timing on his part! He was telling us all these stories from his mission and literally everything he was telling us, we are struggling with right now. Lots of good insight. We were talking about miracles and he said, wasn't it a miracle that when I had to come down to Southern California on business that I chose to stay in Fountain Valley and met the Carr family and God knew that I would be in Jacksonville when Sister Carr was here. But like for real what a miracle that we needed to hear those stories and needed a bit of encouragement right then and there and from someone who literally knew exactly what we were dealing with. So great.
I've been attacking Facebook and we have all these people that add us cause we're missionaries and I've been talking to them and getting referrals from a lot of them. Missionary technology is amazing. We had a trade off with our Sister Training Leaders this week and that was the best thing ever! They had just gotten their iPads the day before, so that was the funnest thing ever to figure that all out. The two guys that started the Facebook missionary program on Facebook came down from Salt Lake and showed them new ways to use the pamphlets and gave them all these amazing ways to do lessons and we just talked about that for hours. I CANNOT wait to start using those techniques. They're amazing. Our iPads are coming February 1. Our area book, planners, and literally everything is on it and Salt Lake has access to all of it. President Monson can tap into Keystone's area book anytime he wants and check up on us. Hello no pressure.
So we're all stoked for that. Besides that, nothing really new. Just hangin'.

This was our backyard the other night. Florida's absolutely gorgeous. Some of the time.
I felt like y'all needed to see a house that we'd typically tract around here. You won't see any of these anywhere near California. Welcome to the South
