- Troutdale, Oregon is beautiful but WINDY because it is at the opening of the Columbia Gorge.
- Trevor really appreciated all the cards, gifts and goodies that were given to him for Christmas. He said he had more calories on his counter top than he could ever imagine.
- Trevor said the thing he misses most on his mission is HIS FRIENDS back home!
- Trevor felt he had to choose between becoming an Oregon State fan or a University of Oregon fan, and he is now an official Ducks fan! (UO)
- Trevor has taken up looming and makes hats in his spare time since he cannot watch T.V. or spend time on Facebook. You may have seen him sporting one of his creations on his Christmas card.
- Trevor is also into Disk Golf and says it IS NOT the same as Ultimate Frisbee.
- He plays basketball 3 mornings a week and enjoys it!
- It rains A LOT in Oregon so Trevor bought some rain pants to wear as he knocks on many doors each week.
- Trevor LOVES to teach people, in part because he LOVES people, and because he LOVES the Lord Jesus Christ.
- He enjoyed singing in the church choir for Christmas, and he also went Christmas caroling.
After we visited with Trevor, he was off to spend Christmas evening with the Bishop and his extended family. Here is the report we got in an email explaining his celebration.
"I had a great Christmas evening! We went to the Bishops brothers house! It was the biggest house I have ever been in!! The food was AMAZING! We just chatted for a long time. It was really great. And then we finished the night of by playing some poker. It was either play poker or watch "Wallie" on the television...and the white book says we cannot watch television. (haha) All in all, It was a great evening with some great people! I hope your guys Chirstmas evening was awesome! It was great to hear from you guys!"
Love,
Elder Morgan
Mom note: The white handbook has rules that all missionaries are to follow, and I guess they didn't think to include anything about Poker ;) Oh, our silly boy.
