Hey guys! Hey cool, so ya our Thanksgiving went well, it wasn’t like home, but it was good. We went over to an older couple’s apartment and had turkey dinner. It was good. We had turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing and salad. It was pretty good. lol Oh and they totally had the celery with cheese wiz on it. lol So that was cool, it totally reminded me of mom:)
But ya, I finished the Turkey Trot. I ran the whole time too! It was a four mile run and I did it in about 37 minutes, so ya not too shabby for an out
of shape missionary. lol But it was fun, I got a cool shirt and other stuff that has a cool turkey on it. Over 8000 people ran it! Pretty crazy huh! It was fun.
The work is going good here. Right now we have 3 really solid investigators, Sham, the man from Kashmir. He is doing good. He is moving slowly through the gospel but has been to church like 8 times in a row, so that is awesome. We have talked with him about baptism but he doesn’t have a date yet, but he is doing good.

Then we have Margarita and her daughter Margarita. lol They are like late forties and twenty one. We started teaching them about 3 weeks ago and they have been to church the last 3 weeks. They are Mexican, they moved here from Mexico about 2 years ago now, so they speak pretty good English and I get to practice up on my Spanish so that is cool. lol They are way solid and progressing wonderfully. We have taught them the first lesson about the restoration of the church, the second lesson, the plan of salvation, and pieces of the third, the gospel of Jesus Christ. Margarita’s son is 19 and was baptized about 1 1/2 years ago. He lives a few hours from Denver, so I have never met him, but they are doing good and we just last Thursday soft set them for baptism. Basically saying once you receive an answer to your prayers that this is Jesus Christ’s church will you be baptized and they both said yes, so that is cool. They are having us over for dinner on Christmas Eve so that will be awesome. They said they are going to make us a real Mexican dinner! I’m pretty excited. Lol
So ya, we have an appointment with Sham on Friday and with the Margaritas on Thursday. So yup, oh and on Sunday this older man in the ward Bro. Berry brought his granddaughter up to us. Her name is Mya, she is 10, and said this is Mya she wants to be baptized! Pretty cool so ya we have an appointment with her on Sat. So yup, it’s all looking good and I’m staying busy. The Lord has definitely blessed me and Elder Luce by preparing people here in the Crestmoor ward for us to teach. We are very blessed.
Ok, so for Christmas, we are going over to one of our kinda investigators house, the Plusses, for breakfast and stuff so we are going to be calling from there at like 11 or 12 Denver time, so 10 or 11 for you guys. I think that’s all you need to know. I guess I’ll just call the home phone, and I think Britt is going to be going over there so I can talk to her for a bit. Pretty exciting stuff :) So ya they are making us a big breakfast , so that will be fun. They are a cool family, I don’t think there will be any eggs benedict though! Sad day. lol But I think I will manage. :) Then we have a dinner at the Green’s house. They are recent converts, I think like 2 years or so. It will be good to have nice people and good conversations, so ya it will be fun.
Well let’s see, Friday I think it was, at night it got down to minus 18!!!!! Crazy huh? It was like minus 10 when we were still out, it was wicked cold. Pretty crazy stuff, but today it finally let up, it got up to like 40 I think. But the last few days have been brutal.
Oh I saw I had some money, so of course I had to spend it as soon as possible. lol Just kidding. But I did buy a bike yesterday, so thanks a bunch for the money. It’s basically my same bike but an upgrade, so it’s a little nicer. Mine was the GT Avalanche 3.0. lol Then Elder Bragg had to one up me, so he bought the one nicer model the 2.0 and I couldn’t let that happen. lol So I bought the 1.0 lol So ya pretty funny, but it’s nice, thanks a bunch!
Well I think that’s it guys, hope you’re all doing well. Love you all. I’ll talk to ya soon!

Awesome! You finished the Turkey trot with a pretty good time! I think you're a runner?!
Glad to hear about all the investigators! That's pretty cool, hope they stay on track.
It will be a sad day for me with out Eggs Benedict too! Nobody can make it like the Dunn's, I know I've tried!
Hopefully Elder Bragg's bike doesn't get stolen. He really doesn't need to buy the next model up.
Merry Christmas Elder Dunn!!! Glad you are where you are, doing what you're doing, and enjoying it all!
Luv, Kay
