Serving along side these young elders and sisters is so much fun. This week, Robyn decided that she wanted to feed them all lunch following our district meeting. I think she ended up feeding about 20 hungry missionaries. They all loved her hot scones covered in butter and fresh pear guava-lilikoi jam that she had made last week. It was perfect timing. Thanks to Catherine Ghent who sent us the cool aprons with our names embroidered on them.
My official job title now is 'chief dish and bottle washer'. At least that is what my senior companion tells me. After today, I think we will probably be serving lunch about once a month from here on out.

BEST SHINED SHOES IN THE DISTRICT
Last week I instructed the district on the intricacies of polishing shoes. This week we had a contest to see who had paid attention and applied the knowledge to their shoes. Elder Duerksen had by far and away the shiniest shoes. The grand prize was a Kansas City Temple recommend holder.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SISTER ROMERO
 |
| Birthday Girl |
Today was Sister Romero's birthday. From time to time it has been fun to spoil the young sisters and elders here in our ward just a little. Her birthday fell on their P-day, so we were able to take them to lunch and give Sister Romero a Barbie Doll coloring book for her birthday (Robyn's idea). She was so excited and even promised to color one for us before she leaves in a couple of weeks, so we can hang it up in our apartment with the rest of the grandkid's art work.
