oh. my. gosh. We had the weirdest Easter dinner of my life. It was cool but like, so random, i don't even know. Okay so before dinner we texted the fam that was feeding us to see if we were still on, and they were like yah, but we are doing a passover, so be here by 5 but we wont eat tll like 30 to 40 min after...so we were like uhhh okay. We both had no idea what a passover dinner was. So we get there at 5...and didn't leave till 8:30. That was the longest dinner appointment I've ever had in my whole life. So we help get things ready, and there was this platter that had a bowl of horse radish, some parsley, some spinach, a meatless chicken bone, an egg, a bowl of salt water and a ground up mixture of apples nuts honey and cinnamon. I was seriously about to die..I was like what the heck fire are we about to eat for dinner??? Then we all sat down (theres like 10 of us at the table, kids from 17 to 4) and we each have a packet, and we started reciting things together.., Guys, i don't even know how to explain the passover, just look it up or something, but its what Jewish people do for Easter I think?? Then they had us do random thinks like dipping the basil in saltwater and eat it, and put horse radish on a cracker thing and eat it..haha when the passed the horse radish to me i got my spoon and got literally a microscopic scoop of it and put it on my cracker and they all just started laughing at me lol, i was NOT about to eat that nasty stuff!! We also had nice wine glasses and had sparkling grape juice stuff, and half way through the passover, the 6 year old kid sitting next to me bit his wine glass and it shattered all in his mouth and on his hand...we all just looked at him and he spit the glass out, asked for a paper towel to stop the blood, his dad said sure, and we carried on...it was the weirdest thing ever...no yelling, screaming, crying or anything. It was so confusing.
The Easter pageant was so good! We went 3 times lol! The first time we went, we went with the YSA in really good seats, the second time was horrible omgosh but we still got good seats...and the 3rd time was awesome! we went with a part member family and got REALLY good seats! there is a reserved section in the very middle and there were 6 seats left, and the people never came so we were like yo, can we get those seats, and they were like uhhh probs not, then we came back and they were still empty like 30 min later (you have to get there at like 6:30 to get seats even though it starts at 8) so we asked another guy and he was like, well how many investigators do yall have and we were like 1 and he was like, well there are like a billion other missionaries fighting for these...so we were like awhhh, so like 5 min we came back and we were like soooo, can we get these seats? and he was like...ughhh sure, you won. SO WE GOT THE SEATS! #persistence
Have a great week!!
