President Colton, a wonderful man.

A group of us got birthday congratulations and a $5.00 gift card to Wendy’s. That was not the whole group.

They had a talent show, this is a group of Elders and Sisters from our area, they did a Tonga dance. Not sure who won but they were great.

Halloween with a cute family from South Rexburg

We had a garden full of pumpkins, so we invited this family

over to carve some.

Tristian is so cute and had a fun time too (as long as I didn't pick her up).

Ashley's pumpking with horns

Sister Butler's

Brother Butler's

They have other children that couldn't come so we sent them home

with 4 more pumpkins.

Potato Harvest in South Rexburg

These are pictures from Lee Sutton's Potato Farm in South Rexburg



It was very interesting to see how potatoes are harvested



They dig them up first, then another machine comes along and put the potatoes
in a pile, then another machine comes along and picks them up and
puts them on the truck.

The truck then takes them to the potato storage building

As the truck unloads the potatoes workers pull out any stalks or weeds

The potatoes are then piled up in the storage building until sold.
This building is HUGE! He has several huge buildings and when harvest is
over all the buildings are full of potatoes. It is temperature controlled.
Thanks Lee for letting us see how it is all done.

What a Kick Off

On Sunday we met with the Idaho Pocatello Mission Presidency; the Rexburg Idaho South Stake Presidency; and some of the Bishops, High Council and Ward Mission Leaders. We were introduced to our assignment and given a charge and direction for our efforts. The Stake leaders are ready to help anyone and everyone within their boundaries that need help. The love that they show for their members is very impressive. My sweet companion and I are chomping at the bit to get started. We thank you for your sustaining thoughts and prayers.
