OFFICE ANTICS

The winner of the most unusual piece of mail is..............Morty.   The Moose.  Yes, Morty came in the mail just like you see him here.  The postage was stuck on the top and the address squeezed on the side.  How he got to Copenhagen in one piece and unsmeared and readable is a big mystery.  The postman, grinning from ear to ear, proudly plopped him on my desk.   Messages are scribbled on every centimeter, even the bottoms of the hoofs. The big, block "Y" on the chest betrays the family's loyalties. We were really tempted to write "Go Aggies" across the nose.  Really tempted.  Who would know?

The AP's are regular visitors to our little office.  Elder Reimschussel and Elder Mogensen.  We love these two loyal, hardworking and faithful servants. But they are not perfect;  sometimes they FORGET stuff.    On this day, they were driving to Jylland for zone conference - a three hour drive;  their car loaded with teaching materials, clothing, and loads of mail packages and supplies for the missionaries.  This picture was taken after the FOURTH return to the office, as proof that they were finally on their way..........and then they came back.


They look a little sheepish don't they? You should have seen them when they came back the FIFTH time.

The Fredericksberg sisters wander in from time to time offering to help and looking for treats.  This day we invited them to come for lunch.  Would you believe there is a fabulous, tempting, way-too-near, pizza shop almost next door?  They have this chicken pesto pizza..............oh my.   Sidenote: These girls can put away the food.  We are loosing almost all these sisters in January and February. They are fabulous missionaries.
