From the beautiful morning reflected in the lake to a Senior couple get together where we never seemed to stop laughing, it was certainly not a bad Friday the 13th. Elder Beagley and myself managed to get the gas card receipt report complete and sent in, I took care of the phone report that needed to be checked and finished, and we figured out a better way to do things in the future.

Mary had a quieter day finishing an afghan for our newest grandchild, getting out the mail and making a salad for the wonderful get together at the mission home with president and sister Anderson all the senior couples and the Graffs who served here and left not long before we arrived.

   

   

The calm morning reflected in the lake. When missionaries get together there is always lots of food and talk so Mary is getting food and sister Collins is talking to sister Sommerfeldt and sister Graff.

The next row starts with sister Steimle, the Graffs, and sister Beagley. Next is brother Graff, the Beagleys and the Collins. And the last picture is elder Sommerfeldt getting ready to take a picture. Memories they will cherish for the rest of their lives.

Elder Graff provides a constant stream of jokes and startling comments. And from what was said it never stops. Not in airplanes, restaurants or even Church. He certainly kept all of us laughing.
