Happy Thanksgiving!!!
We met up with a convert from Ryan's mission. She moved here from Japan about 4 years ago, married in the temple, and now is about to adopt her first child.
Her name is Yumi and she is really strong in the gospel. We spent Tuesday with her and her husband. They're visiting from South Bend, IN. We went to Chucky Cheeses and played around for a while. Noah loved the games and Jaxon loved the comotion. Afterwards we went to a Japanese restaraunt for some eats and had a great time. The cook grilled on the hibachi right in front of us, sorta like Benihanas. And of course, in lu of rivalry week, Ryan has been sporting his Cougar Tees. The night ended on a great note with Yumi's husband thanking Ryan for baptizing his wife. It made everything worth it! Life is good and sometimes we don't clearly see the blessings of our labors right off, all we can do is continue being grateful. We affect other's lives in ways that may not be immediately apparent, but someday, in this life or the next, they will make themselves evident. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
