Turkey (or chicken?) Day!

I did it.

I kissed the Blarney stone.

I actually had to do it twice because the first time I just kissed the rock that's next to it. Swag.

It's supposed to give you the "Gift of Gab" and help you speak eloquently. I'm not sure I've seen it work yet... will keep you updated though.

Also. Something else that happened.

I RIPPED OUT LIKE HALF MY EYELASHES.

I have no idea what happened but one morning I was using my eyelash curler and my hand had a spasm or something and BOOM!

I look down and there are like 8 eyelashes on the curler.

Then, one morning the weather was so nice! So I'm like, "Yeah, I'll wear my toms today."

just going through my day and BOOM
rain and wind and colddddddddd.

We stopped at a posh looking hotel to dry out my shoes in their bathroom hand dryers. :)

Our Thanksgiving was catered by the corner store near our flat. Shout out to microwavable roast chicken dinners and Dr. Pepper. True American's over here.
It's okay though because this week our American friends are having us over. We are going to try to make pie. Pray for us.

I'm trying to read the Book of Mormon again before I come home and it's making my studies so much better. I love that we can read this book of scripture and find peace and guidance through it. Joseph Smith was called as a prophet and translated these records through the power of God for US! 

How lucky are we!? God truly does love us. I know this!
