I hope you enjoyed the last birthday of your mission. We can't wait to see you. You have served with honor and blessed the lives of many.

Our first Christmas in our new house

This last Christmas was a memorable one for a couple of reasons. First of all it was the first Christmas of many that we will spend in our new house! We have a chimney for Santa to come down, complete with stockings by the fireplace. We also had our first real Christmas tree. We have a really high ceiling in our living room, so our tree was at least 8' tall. We also continued one of our traditions of helping a family in need. That meant more to us than any of the presents under the tree. Another tradition is having a wonderful Christmas feast. Even though it was just the two of us this year, that did not stop us from baking all day long and stuffing our faces. Just look at the pictures and you'll see what I mean. We hope to be able to spend next Christmas with more of you.
