SISTER REBECCA RICHARDSON MISSION JOURNAL -- Celebrating my handwork as a service missionary with the Nothums before I get released

Saturday 8, 2020:

This was a fun day. To celebrate ending my mission soon, Brother and Sister Nothum invited my parents to come down to their place in Missouri. My two brothers Mason and David joined us for the fun!! That morning we got up and drove 2 hours 15 mins to their place. They lived out in the country. There at their place where their home was, they showed my parents around. They showed them their backyard, their barn/a place: where people can stay, watch movies on the big screen they have in there, cook up food in the kitchen, and play games upstairs, showed the horses, the bulls, and the arena. They also had bathrooms in the “barn house” and in the two bathrooms, there were showers. Then Brother Nothum loaded up two horses to take with us to their 180 acres property they owned. We headed off to go see their big-o property. The property is called Turkey Creek. We were there for quite a while. There were a lot of things we did out there. My two brothers and I went swimming in their beautiful pond, while my parents and the Nothums were visiting together on the dock that was shaded, I drove the side by side with my parents in there and brother Nothum showing them their property, rode horses, they showed my parents the inside of the place where people can stay, eat lunch with them, and finally had a good visit with them. My parents loved their two properties. After we had a blast, we headed over to Brother Nothum’s business he owns down in Springfield, Missouri. There he showed us around and told us about how his business works. Offered us free shirts and two hats for my two brothers and my dad. Then we headed back home. We were with the Nothums from 9ish and headed back home about 4:30ish. The Nothum’s are amazing service missionary couples. They are fun to be around and make things fun. I am going to surely miss their gatherings for the service missionaries. I admire and appreciate them so much!!
