Don slicing a ham for dinner, he came home between church and gospel doctrine class to work on the dinner, it was really good. Matthew over seeing the job.
















Denise working on some part of the dinner. I enjoyed going into Primary with her, the kids put on their Primary program and it was really nice. Denise is a counselor in the Primary and she has worked with the President for 6 years.

While I and Rita was on our way to a lady's house to work on humanitarian stuff, we drove by this house, I came back later and took a picture of the Scarecrows they put up, the guy didn't even notice me taking the picture. He was busy putting up Christmas lights.
















Trees over by the church, I just love the leaves under the trees.

I love to see the colors of the fall leaves, here are two trees close to where I live.
