Photos and Video: Arcadia

Here are the last of the photos from Arcadia along with a little video clip at the end. And then, off to Mexico!

Our goals...Realistic but challenging!

My new house. (The second place Jake lived in Arcadia.)

Photos: Missionary Life in Arcadia

In the car [duh].

I am always tired.

Missionary get-together.

Studying in the cold.

This bridge is in "Batman Begins". Kinda cool.

The senior couple, the Snows, are going home.

This car got gutted over night. They took everything--engine, lights, tires, radio, you name it...

My district: Me, Elder Martinez, Elder Anderson, Elder Harper, Elder Ault, Elder Baumgart, Sister Kunz, Sister Kimball

With Anna, a member

Us with more members of the branch.

With Hermano Oscar Rodriguez. This guy is awesome.

This guy challenged me to one-on-one.

Maria and Elder K.

Eating a huge steak--yum!

Arcadia Pictures - Branch Thanksgiving Party and Santa's Lap

Right before Jake left for Mexico he sent his card with pictures from his last couple of months in Arcadia, CA, which I will be posting in batches throughout the week. Captions are provided by Jake. Enjoy!

Crazy Santa guy

He pinched our bums in this one!

Santa needs the gospel too. :)

Santa wanted to hold me. His idea.

Santa choke-out.

He wanted us to try the suit on. This suit cost him $1,500. The buttons and belt buckle are gold-plated and all.

These are photos that Jake took of graffiti in the area he is currently serving in.
