This has been kind of a light week.  We did not teach English this week because Altan went on a trip to China with her sons.  Monday night we took the Twister game to family home evening and it was a hit.  They loved playing it.  Of course we drove the van (because no one wants to be the first to put a scratch on the new Land Cruiser) and we almost didn't get out of the church driveway because it was icy! 
At the office this week, I decorated our door for Christmas, we put up the Christmas tree for our area(which was very easy because it is stored completely decorated!), gave the last Michigan test for this year to Battsengel, and got her test and all of the test booklets mailed off to BYU Hawaii.
Friday Elder Shrope finally drove the new vehicle so that we could go to Nalaikh and attend the baptism of a lady.  She is such a sweet sister and even though her husband does not want to come to church, he was still there to support her at her baptism.  Most of the time the person being baptized is the only one in the family and none of the rest come, so this was special.
Today we rode the bus home from Nalaikh and by the time we got home my toes were so cold I thought they would crack off.  It is not really that cold here yet, but the floorboard of the bus is so cold my feet freeze!
We have been looking for a hat for Elder Shrope.  He thought he might like to look 'cool' like some of the young men in Nalaikh and get one like this---

It also has a long fox tail in the back.  Don't you think that is the real him?
