New Arrivals.......but this time a Special Group!

Yes, we are at the airport again; but this time some very special people are arriving...Our daughter, Devin...
and her husband, Scott, have come to Poland to spend a week with us!
Believe it or not, they packed in 2 carry-on bags and the rest of the luggage is carrying goodies/essential supplies from home. It took 2 cars to get this crew to the Mission Home!
Once at the Mission Home, we were greeted by these two guys.....'Thommy and Stewie'. The Assistants, Elders Stohel and Tribe, had left us a Halloween surprise! (Little did they know that Halloween is one of my favorite holidays in America; and I love giving out treats to the kids when they come Trick or Treating to our home in Las Vegas....What a treat!)
Unloading the stash from home....essential supplies like crunchy peanut butter, cream of chicken soup, velveeta cheese, spices, Christmas candy, dish cloths, and lots of other surprises. Here I am with the Bennetts showing our favorite root beer, Teddy's!
A BIG THANK YOU to Devin, Avery and Emily for gathering all these much appreciated supplies....I love you girls! ALSO...a BIG THANK YOU to the Palmyra Ward Primary and Relief Society for great letters and pictures....Yes, they made me cry! We miss you, love you, and feel your prayers!
This weekend the Poles are celebrating "Day of the Dead". The cemetaries are absolutely beautifully lit up with tens of thousands of candles and gorgeous flowers. The Polish people truely know how to honor those that have passed on to the next life. There is a cemetary within walking distance of the Mission Home. It was the first stop on the "Show Devin and Scott Warsaw" tour.
Another Surprise! When we got home from the cemetary, the doorbell rang......Trick-or-Treaters!!! We were not prepared for this. But everyone seemed happy to have a handful of American Tootsie Pops! It was a great Halloween!
