Comida Returns
This week I got pleasantly surprised by one of the best meals of my life. A family invited us over for lunch on Saturday, and as we descended the stairs into their front patio, we saw the husband of the family stoking up the grill. At that moment, I knew my life would change. He agreed to show us how to grill the Norteño way (because apparently in the north of Mexico they make better meat). He made us steak after steak (the meat was called arrachera) and chorizo (which is the true fifth love of my life (obviously after God, family, freedom, and liberty (necessary to state twice))).
It was a really good meal of tacos accompanied by Manzinita soda and Coca Cola. It was a great meal.
Nopales No Problem
We are still on that health wave craze so we decided to take the craze to crazy and by some cactus (nopales). Since then, we've eaten cactus every night, and Elder Jones put it into his smoothie. Ha it was crazy.
Prince of Peace
Easter is up and coming, and so a new video has been produced to explain the peace that Jesus Christ brings to the world. This video struck a chord with me. I am convinced that the greatest source of peace in this life is Jesus Christ. The peace Christ offers is often criticized because of its simplicity. But, because something is simple, that does not mean that it is untrue or foolish. The peace of Christ is simple but is real. The peace is a personal peace that only comes as we learn more about Him and strive to draw closer to Him.
Video that will change your life and that has a surprisingly good soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?

Father and son reunited in the offices haha. We found a bronze eagle and American flag in the offices and took the photo because...'Merica" from Julie Austin Edwards Facebook Page
