Grandma Chubby's Stuff

I hope you enjoy my postings. My husband and I are serving a mission in Romania and have had some wonderful adventures. Each of us have experiences in our life that make us different from that time forth. These experiences have done that for us.

Transfer Day (Again!)

Transfer day was on April 30th and we lost another four great elders! Elders Valentine, Banu, Canfield and Selck visited Cismigiu Gardens, had dinner at the Ashby's, a great fireside together and said their farewells. We will truly miss these powerful young men in our mission.
Elder Valentine got a horrified look on his face as the reality of letting go his "tie" with the Romanian Bucharest Mission really hit home.
Our new bunch of missionaries arrive! We welcome Elder Bailey, Elder Barclay, Elder Eliason and Sora Shepard. Who is that woman next to Sora Ashby, you ask?.....Sister Geri Winkler....Sora Ashby's sister who came in with these incoming missionaries to visit the Ashby's for two weeks! We are excited for this new and enthusiastic group. However, of the four new missionaries, two of them lost their wallets enroute to Romania. I think they learned a hard lesson on watching out for pick-pockets!
Sora Shepard takes a little snooze before heading out to Transfer meeting and finding out who her first companion will be!

Last, but not least, we received another new and wonderful couple in the early part of April when Elder and Sora Edwards arrived as our new Humanitarian couple in Bucharest.

I can't believe we lost these four elders. There were an institution of the Romania Mission! And they were new when I first arrived here, I guess that means its just about time I get out of here.
The blog is fabulous. Keep the updates coming. It is so great to read what is going on everywhere else here.
Hope you and yours are doing well,
Kindly,
