Christmas Day 2012

December 25, 2011

 Sister & President Keyes, Elder Stapley,
 Elder Poulsen, & Elder Seely

Our ward met with another ward for a Christmas Sacrament meeting at 9:00.  After, I spent the morning making pies, rolls and scalloped potatoes to take to the mission home for a Christmas dinner with the Keyes and the Mission President's Assistants.  We had a lovely steak dinner prepared.  The poor Elders had been eating all day, they were really to full to enjoy the dinner.  They ate what they could, then took some pie home - to full to eat dessert (hard to imagine!)

The evening ended with the Elders reading the Christmas story from Luke.  Then singing “Oh Come All Ye Faithful”.  It was a night to remember.  

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree . . . 

We were so glad we were able to Skype and Face Time with the kids.  We miss them.  They all seemed to have a happy day.  Our hearts were with them.
