Parable of the Plumeria

We had our first official 'P-Day Pad Party'. One of the Sisters in our District is great at organizing any gathering that has to do with food. Elder Cameron cooked them hamburgers, hotdogs, (and toasted the buns) chocolate chip cookies and butterscotch pudding dessert.      ( The dessert has been renamed: "Sin".) There were a few tomatoes, lettuce and onions to go on the burgers, but that is about all the fresh nutrition they could handle.
One of our missionaries, who is Tongan, brought ribs to barbecue. He hadn't had any for awhile and was excited. He also brought some strange looking oranges. He cut them open and used them to clean the grill before cooking. So clever.
The "kids" played guitar, ukeleles, sang and played games in the driveway. The Sisters, dog-piled on our bed and two of them took naps while the others played. It was a great day for all of us to eat and relax. 

Our front door. A great custom to imitate.

Enjoying the music and the dogs.

Games in the driveway with our entire District.
