A Week











Saturday night we went to a big show at the Thai Cultural Center called Siam Niramit.  Before the show there were dancers and elephant rides and a Thai village. In the village were women demonstrating silk making and weaving cotton cloth. The show is on a huge stage with at least 80 performers and a little river on the front of the stage. It had live elephants (and goats) and was a very good show.



On Sunday night we had 3 Sisters and 4 Elders over for dinner. The Elders got these "skirts" from Myanmar and brought one for Elder Grange to wear for the evening. This is Elder Slabaugh, Elder G, Elder Cooper, Elder Roberts, and Elder Arne.













Sister Sattatip made this really awesome birthday card for me. This is the outside and it opens up in two layers to show pictures of the Elders and Sisters we spend time with.







Here is the first inside layer with crazy pictures.



And the second layer.



I have found my most favorite Thai fruit. The mangoes are amazing. I have been having one or two complete mangoes every day.


Look at these beauties.
Ready for eating

  1. You guys look so great! What a sweet card and I really want a mango now. I'm eating an apple, do they have apples there? It's weird to think that they may not. Love you guys!

  2. Elder Grange in a skirt and no tie. He may need to meet with the president this week. When does the mango season end? I think our season is winding up. We will miss the juicy big ones.
