No more sisters!

We live very close to where the sister missionaries live that serve in the area and have enjoyed having them over for dinner and even having them drop by for help to fix there bikes or print off some confrence talk off the internet or to watch a new movie they got that they want to see before they played it for an investigator. I have enjoyed on occation going with them to teach someone they are teaching (in English) and join in the missionary efforts.

I loved that I could have them over for dinner even when Brian was working late. I have just really enjoyed the sister missionaries being close by. They were so much fun to get to know.

We have seen many sisters finish up their missions and go back home from our ward. But when Sister Broadbent was headed home and we had her over for dinner on her last week here, her and Sister Miller told us that they were both being transfered out and that the Elders were going to be taking there place. I was so sad. I liked the sisters and I thought at least Sister Miller would be staying. But that was not the case. We were so sad!

Here is a picture of us and our last evening with the sisters before they left.

Sister Broadbents parents came to visit and I was able to have them over for dinner and see Sister Broadbent one more time before she left for home. Her parents were really wonderful and enjoyable to have over. He father reminded me of my friend Amanda (Cochran)Shabana's dad. I felt like I was at home hanging out at Amanda's house talking with her dad... It was kind of weird how similar they were, they talked a like. What was fun was Amanda's dad served his mission in Ireland and so did Brother Broadbent. He had so many stories about Ireland, just like I had heard from Amanda's dad. (Yea, it was weired the similarties, looked alike, talked alike, told the same storeis :-))

Anyways, it was an enjoyable visit. I was greatful for it and glad that they came for dinner.

So now we have the Elders. You know Elders are different then Sisters. We have them over for dinner and are doing are best to get to know them but Elders are different then sisters, really different.
