Missionary Surprises!

So two times in the past couple of months I have been
surprised that my husband has been entertaining the
missionaries.

The first time, I was out of town and came home to find
out that my husband had invited the young male missionaries
in to our home and sat and talked with them for a bit. This was
a shock because my husband hasn't been active since I have
known him and I would have never thought he would be
entertaining the missionaries without me around.

The second time was about a month ago, I was sitting on the
couch chillin' after just getting home from work, a little tuckered
out, thinking to myself that I hoped my husband would take me
out to dinner cuz I hadn't planned ahead for anything.

Bruce walks in and says "Hi, dear! I just met some new
missionaries and I hope you don't mind that I invited them
to dinner tonight-is that okay?" Well, first off I was a little
shocked and then embarrassed cuz I hadn't made any dinner,
so I told him I was hoping he would take me out. He then replied
that we would just take the missionaries out for a nice dinner!
He invited them in and introduced me to Bro. & Sis. Bingham
from Idaho, currently serving a mission at Temple Square, but
had recently been assinged to branch out to our stake.

Apparently, they had been driving down the street looking
as if they might be lost so Bruce flagged them down to help
and struck a conversation and invited them for dinner.

I am still not sure if they were actually looking for our house,
since Bruce is inactive he was probably their intended target!
Anyhow, we have been associating with them several times since
then. They spoke in our ward and invited Bruce and he actually
went. Then Bruce and Matt actually went bird hunting with Bro.
Bingham on his farm in Idaho.( What missionary gets to go hunting
on their mission?) We have also gone bowling and for ice cream.
They are a real down-to-earth couple and are very nice and easy
to talk to and get along with. I am so glad that Bruce is receptive
to at least befriending them at this point and who knows what it
will lead to.
