Hey everybody! I'm going to try and send you a handful of pictures so the e-mail might be short and you'll have a lot of them! Anyway, I live with a NASA doctor, basically he makes sure the astronauts are all good before, during, and after their space flight experience. And because he is who he is, I got to go places that normal people don't really get to go a lot.
I went into the places where they do the training for everybody. I got to see all sorts of stuff up close, and it was SOOOOO exciting! I was like a kid at Christmas! (haha, look at me being funny.)
If you were wondering I was taken care of for Thanksgiving, but it was NOT the traditional meal I remember. And like nobody actually has Thanksgiving at night here. It's Thanksgiving lunch with the football game. The Texans won don't worry. I was under the impression that Thanksgiving was about family, and eating, and giving thanks, and all those fun things....not in Texas. Here Thanksgiving is about football. That's all. As we all know, I was a little out of place in those conversations. Partly, because I can't watch the game, and partly because I don't believe the Texans winning will effect my eternal salvation in anyway, so, I have no interest in it. I guess after my mission I'll have to look into it a little more closely....try and figure out what all the fuss is, you know? :-D
Anyway, Here are as many pictures as I can send you before my time runs out. All is well in Texas. :) Sending all my love your way!
Forever,
Sister Christopherson
