23 months after entering the MTC (Missionary Training Center). We have served the Lord, met a lot of people who we now call friends and grown immensely. We feel honored to be in the support position for all the missionaries and mission president. <br />
<br />
The time seemed to fly. We would go into the Texas Lubbock Mission office on Monday, turn around and it would be Friday. All in all, it was a great experience. Cheryl, being the mission secretary, took care of all the paperwork necessary to keep the office and mission running smoothly. Eugene was in charge of housing, finance and telephones. We have done our best.<br />
<br />
Did we miss our family back home? Of course we did! But we know they were blessed as much as we were. Would we go again? Yes! In a heart beat. Would we recommend it to others? Absolutely!<br />
<br />
As many of you have noticed, I am not a great orator. So I have tried to share our mission using pictures. Often, as advised, I have left names off out for protection of the individual. But I hope you have all enjoyed sharing our mission with us. We are home now so this will be the last post to our "Texas Carbine's" Blog. Thanks to all of you for your love and support.<br />

After a days drive we settled in for the night in Albuquerque, NM. When we woke up the next morning and opened the curtains, we were greeted by three hot air balloons floating in the air out side of our window.<br />

Our last night on the road we spent in Provo, UT. We had a surprise the next morning for our daughter Janene. She was running in a 1/2 Marathon from Provo Canyon down to the new LDS temple in Provo. We were waiting for her when she came across the finish line. We were so proud of her and she was sooooo surprised. And obviously, she cried!<br />

What a delight that was. Of course, Eugene speaking fluent Spanish, was right at home. However, I was not... in the beginning. The only thing I could do was smile in Spanish. And lead music in Spanish. But everyone in the little branch was so wonderful and welcoming that it didn't take long to feel loved. The spirit was so incredible and everyone was so kind. After a couple of weeks with Eugene trying to translate everything, it was evident that we needed help. So the branch president set up some headphones and a translator for me and his wife. She didn't speak Spanish either and he was constantly translating for her too. From that point on, we didn't miss out on anything. Just as we were completing our mission, we decided to take our camera to church and get some pictures of some of the members out in the hall. Here are just a few. I wish we would have written down all of their names because now, 7 months later, some of them have escaped us.<br />

The top left picture shows some of the Relief Society ladies. They are so delightful. I wish I could remember all of their names. Top right are Lee and Bea. The center picture is Bella Wright (Relief society president) and her husband and two beautiful daughters. And the bottom picture is the Andrade family. <br />

Sister Delgadio (top left) was an incredible Sunday School teacher. She and her husband were converts to the church and before the Spanish branch was organized, they attended church - in an English speaking ward. Never understanding a word spoken, they attended<u> faithfully</u> for the children! How we admired them!<br />

Serving the Spanish branch was a wonderful experience for us. We had expected to be called to South East Mexico on our mission. A little confused when we weren't. But this made up for not receiving a call south of the border.Eugene and Cheryl Carbinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15319361488963468246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3951277759037778480.post-15110937653227900312012-04-12T17:23:00.000-07:002012-04-12T17:23:01.035-07:00Rattlesnake Roundup<div style="background-color: #9fc5e8; color: black;"><b><span style="font-size: large;"> While performing our missionary duties, we have the opportunity to experience various activities in various areas.

It is very different in some ways, from Christmas at home. Yet in other ways it is the same. Stories and carols, parties and presents, decorations and lights. But the faces are not those of our children and grandchildren, Old friends and relatives. Instead they are the faces of Elders and Sisters and many new friends. This blog is one where we share all of the new faces with those of you back home. (Once again, I have omitted the names of our young missionaries for their protection.)<br />

We went to Fort Stockton, Texas. Spent the night with Elder and Sister Shurtz. Wonderful couple. Then the next morning, we headed to the Sonora Caverns. The Shurtz' and two of our Ft. Stockton missionaries, Elder Martinez and Elder Costley, also joined us. Two other Senior missionaries, Elder and Sister Fields (serving in San Angelo, TX) met us at the caverns and we had a great time exploring the caves together. <br />
At the end of the day, we went back to Fort Stockton and the Shurtz' took us on a tour of the historic town. It was originally a cavalry fort. Then it became a military base years later. Now it is a regular town - no more military.<br />
The next day, we headed down to the Big Bend. With the Rio Grand River forming the border between the United States and Mexico. There are many, many hiking trails there. We chose not to hike but instead had a wonderful dinner at the Chisos Lodge and then enjoyed Rootbeer Floats on the lodge patio as we watched the sun set. We spent the night there - being entertained by a few wild animals.<br />
After another day at the Big Bend, we headed back home to Lubbock. Sooooo relaxing and soooo enjoyable. Beautiful. Many areas reminded me of home... UTAH!<br />

It is called Plantar Fascitis. It is an inflamation of the fascia (that's the tendon that connects the front of the foot with the heel.) It was getting pretty painful. Our son James suggested that he get a pair of "five finger shoes". A lot of people who have feet problems like that, find them very helpful in the healing process. Sooo, on a whim, we stopped at a sporting goods store on our way home from the office. It took him a while to figure out how to get all of his little piggies into the toes of the shoes, but, in the end - sure enough, we take home a new pair of really, really strange looking shoes.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4Yt-gHGO5hR-xVc62-U1e3VWuXe5QgIeETpqG46AmETJwsyXnUbifVw9arS_6V0a4cUn1mmUiOREsDpteMc8E5jYWqUzAoWBrWKzYNDQRJsg0pfDfdqhxaBjWuVdoajZ3UbKYsYe6Ejs/s1600/DSCN1901.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4Yt-gHGO5hR-xVc62-U1e3VWuXe5QgIeETpqG46AmETJwsyXnUbifVw9arS_6V0a4cUn1mmUiOREsDpteMc8E5jYWqUzAoWBrWKzYNDQRJsg0pfDfdqhxaBjWuVdoajZ3UbKYsYe6Ejs/s400/DSCN1901.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJZLzC1PpF6n5cYR8cRcigXGO0xC5i9RG1Jnc54PNEXx0UxuJkEUODvvucAMOQr4h43h15jvxyWgXGFbOaz2m2KWA5wh0JYepnhpvOjNnt_9hUCsdgFileVMzo4msa4NNT1j62gqCQz1o/s1600/DSCN1902.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"> <img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJZLzC1PpF6n5cYR8cRcigXGO0xC5i9RG1Jnc54PNEXx0UxuJkEUODvvucAMOQr4h43h15jvxyWgXGFbOaz2m2KWA5wh0JYepnhpvOjNnt_9hUCsdgFileVMzo4msa4NNT1j62gqCQz1o/s400/DSCN1902.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDJKP2_iToIFXPWCg1KxlESGhjLuvB4DqSPGw6o07OoLRfoydLDX15QkFKfxGSJ4-oupJvn9CaF9AvsooUrZDyJC_0EoKmLDzGZIZtRFc3WyZXPYAkY2ZDLAVPo5dD_XbeAVNiGFETO0A/s1600/DSCN1900.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDJKP2_iToIFXPWCg1KxlESGhjLuvB4DqSPGw6o07OoLRfoydLDX15QkFKfxGSJ4-oupJvn9CaF9AvsooUrZDyJC_0EoKmLDzGZIZtRFc3WyZXPYAkY2ZDLAVPo5dD_XbeAVNiGFETO0A/s400/DSCN1900.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><br />

From side to side. And in the process, we have seen some of the interesting parts of West Texas and Eastern New Mexico. Consequently, our children were questioning whether we were actually here on a mission or just on an extended vacation. Sooo, at our recent Zone Conferences, we took pictures. Pictures of the whole zone and pictures of us with each district as they had one on one interviews with the president the day before. Proving we really are here on a mission and not just playing.<br />
Please note that I have not put names on the pictures for the most part. This is to protect the missionaries. The names will, however be found in our scrapbook after we return home. Until then, just enjoy their cute faces.<br />

We must have taken between 75 and 100 pictures. But we knew we could never get them all in one blog and still keep you awake. We just picked a few from each zone.<br />
Of course we had some helpers with the camera since we were to be in each of the district pictures. Our office elders were more than happy to take the pictures. However when I looked at all of the pictures, I noticed someone had TOO much fun with the camera! I've decided that no matter how old they are - Boys will be boys!<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"> <i>We had officially been on our mission for 1 whole year on July 5, 2011. Our wonderful Mission President, John Lee Robison and his sweetheart of a wife Joan left to return home in Bountiful, Utah after 3 years as president of the Texas Lubbock Mission. We will really miss them. They had a warmth and love about them that made being a Senior Missionary (or any other missionary for that matter) easy, rewarding and enjoyable. They really made us feel loved and appreciated. There wasn't hardly a day that went by without them telling you how much they appreciated you and how you were needed.</i></span></div>

Normally, in our own car, Eugene, who was the driver, would have just swerved to miss it. However, he was driving a large van, pulling a large enclosed utility trailer and... he didn't see it until just before he HIT IT! Bam! Shhhhhhhh! Thump, thump, thump!

The first thing is leaving your </span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">family</span> behind. But we know they will be blessed so it makes it a little easier. The second thing is </span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Holidays</span>. Of course that probably falls back to the family category because that is who we usually spend the holidays with. So today, I thought we would share some of our holiday pics with you.</span><br />

<div style="color: #bf9000;"><span style="font-size: large;">We were quite surprised to find the table (That would be a table-tennis table!) was all set. Potatoes were mashed, gravy was made (so what if it came from a package) and rolls were being removed from the bag. </span></div><div style="color: #bf9000;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #bf9000;"><span style="font-size: large;">The Sisters were cooking the turkey and a pumpkin pie.

Well, I refused to fix a big dinner for just the two of us. So, we went out to dinner. Most restaurants were providing a Thanksgiving Dinner. It was yummy! And there was no fixin' to do, no dishes to wash and no cleaning up afterwards! But... There was <u>no</u> left over turkey either and <u>no</u> left over dressing and <u>NO LEFT OVER PUMPKIN PIE</u>! Hmmm. Might have to re-think this next year!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

Took it to the apartment and - this has never happened before - we put </span><span style="font-size: large;">the tree </span><span style="font-size: large;">up. THE DAY AFTER THANKSGIVING!

In the middle of cotton fields, next to houses, surrounded by pecan trees. You name it and likely, you'll find a "donkey" there. The first "gusher" was in Beaumont, TX. But then it was discovered all over Texas and OIL became a household word!!!<br />

So this blog is one where we will share some of those sights with you.<br />

Created by some students at the University there. It is made to the exactness of the original. Very fascinating. Now I don't have to go to England to view it - unless I want to!<br />

Changed our clothes and went down town. Got there 20 minutes before everything closed. Walked through the museum fast. Bought a little green alien and a T-shirt. Took our pictures "outside" of the stores - they had already closed. They "roll up the streets at 5:00pm" in Roswell.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Also in Odessa, TX we went through the Presidential Museum. </span><br />

Personal items are on display of each president and newsworthy things that happened during each administration. Very interesting. They also had the home of President George Bush (both father and son) there. They lived in Midland for a short while and so the original home was moved to Odessa and set up next to the museum. The first, George H. W. Bush, came from a wealthy family but he wanted to make it on his own and not on daddy's money. So he started at the bottom - just like many of us do - and worked his way up. They lived in this house when George W. Bush was only about 4 years old. Some of the furnishings in it were just like some our parents had when we were children.<br />

So we decided to make a weekend of it. We went to visit the caves on Saturday. Spent all day there. Walked over 4 1/2 miles during both a guided tour and also a self guided tour. Amazing. Then that evening we stayed for the "flying of the bats". Wow. Thousands and thousands of bats flying out. It was almost orchestrated. Took over a 45 minutes to get most of them out. You're not allowed to take pictures or I would show you some. You'll have to google it.<br />

The following Sunday, after church, we packed a picnic lunch and went back to check it out.<br />

After making a run up to Amarillo on some mission errands, we came home via the Palo Duro Canyon. You are driving along. Nothing but flat land as far as the eye can see. All of a sudden, the ground just opens up and you have a little "Grand Canyon". It is actually longer than the Grand Canyon" in Arizona but it is not as deep or as wide. It kind of reminds me of Bryce Canyon in southern Utah. Only you don't go up into the mountains to see it. And you can actually drive down into it. When you are in the bottom, you can look up and think you are in the mountains. Looks very much like Zions, St. George etc.<br />

Met some really nice "cowboys" there. They were out punchin' cows the night before. There was grandpa, 3 sons and 1 grandson. <br />

And we saw some long horn steers. One was named "Biscuits" and one was named "Gravy" Don't know what the others were called. <br />

Colonal Goodfellow. How would you like to live in one of these. Good thing the people back then were short. Eugene would probably wack his head every time he went through the door. And when you're bald, that hurts. Of course, it hurts even when you're not bald.Eugene and Cheryl Carbinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15319361488963468246noreply@blogger.com0
