This is Dad and Elder Corrigan, after their shopping spree at Walmart. Elder Corrigan is the one who is training Dad to do the Housing.
These are all the senior couples in our mission. We went over to Pres. Pike's home for dinner.
On the far left are the Snow's, then the employment couple the Sander's, the Pike's, and far right are the Corrigan's.

Here we are by the famous map at the MTC.
These next few pictures are of our apartment. We knew you'd want to see the bathroom first! Our apartment is very small, but we're humble missionaries so we're fine and getting used to it. We do miss the luxuries of home though.
This is the kitchen...notice the green counter tops? Love it!! haha. At least the stove is gas and not electric, so Dad can make his english toffee! Next to the frig on the left is a door that goes out to a small patio.
This is our queen sized bed. The mattress is good so we're getting used to sleeping in a smaller bed. I haven't slept the same though, since we went into the MTC. I know, I'm spoiled!
The living room with our un-matching furniture. We bought the white chair at Salvation Army for $27.00. Then the black table and end table, plus a t.v. table that you can't see in the picture, we bought at Walmart....all three for $49.00.
This is the outside of our apt. These are all separate units, ours is on the end. There are about 6 other units along the driveway. Look real close and see my new flower pot on the front porch. You know I have to have a flower pot on the front porch. There are no children living around us, so it's pretty quiet and boring not having kids here.
