Translation

Actually, it is not for 1000 days. It is just that 3 years times 365 days plus June 27 through June 30, 2008 equals 1098 days, and that is way too cumbersome to convert into a blog headline. Futhermore, our release date will not be determined until May or June of 2011. Therefore, 1000 Days sounded just about right, more or less. Having noted all that, we are humbled and thrilled (Pres. Uchtdorf would refer to the feeling as "joyfully overwhelmed") about having this marvelous opportunity to serve in La Mision Mexico Veracruz.

Con amor,
Pdte. y Hna. Pete and JoElla Hansen

Christmas deliveries continued. The big guy is Elder Taufa, our first Polynesian who is from Mesa. His companion is Elder Garcia Flores from Mexico. The second photo shows Elder Menet from Ephraim and Elder Andersen from West Valley. They are contacting an older gentleman on the highway. We delivered their packages from home after they were done. The missionaries call Elder Andersen "Wonder Bread" because he is so white. The number one Mexican sliced bread company is Bimbo. We are grateful they chose to go with an American brand.

no, no, no! Not really!? That would be awful. Do they actually sell that nasty stuff down there? I thought Americans were the only people willing to eat that. It reminds me of a foodie blog post I saw the other day. There is a famous pastry chef living in Paris who found. . . true story. . . ketchup macarons. Macarons are very famous (and expensive) cookies - becoming super popular in the U.S. I'm glad you're out there sharing something valuable with people outside of our fair country - not just an affinity for white bread and ketchup!
