December 1 and 31, 1996

Hi again; it’s me! Today is December 1st and the last day of Thanksgiving break. I have a horrible cold and I’ve had it since the 1st day of Thanksgiving break! Fun huh? I’ve had to stay in bed all week!

Today is also the 1st day of December; almost Christmas! I am making Grandpa 4 coasters and a card holder out of canvas. He will love it! Grandma is getting a Christmas decoration of some kind. Mom, I am making an earplug holder. I am still thinking about Dad and my siblings.

Anyway, we love it where we live. Our ward is nice. We’ve already had 2 really spiritual Sundays. One was a deaf person’s mission farewell. She gave a talk in sign language and the deaf Primary came to sign songs for us! The other was last Sunday. The Special Mutual came and gave us a presentation. They were all mentally challenged. That was also really neat. I could feel every one of their sweet spirits. Well, I’ve better go now. Smile always!



December 31st

Hi, as you’ve already guessed, Christmas has past and it was great. We didn’t get much but Sunday class was great! We had one of those really warm-fuzzy feeling moments.
