Highlights of December 2007 - Part 2

Sunday the 9th we went to Matt's parents' ward to hear them speak before they left for the MTC the next day. They are now in Australia. They came over a few times in the evenings during their week in the MTC including the day they took off. That's sure different than when I was in the MTC. They got their evenings free. It's fun to hear about their experiences already. Like the cool fireworks show they were able to see for New Years. I know fireworks on New Years sounds a little wierd, but it's summer there.

When we were up north for their Sacrament Meeting we got to go to our friend, Shelby's wedding reception and spend the night at Lori and Marc's (more friends of ours) condo. They were so nice to have us! What a fun time!

Monday the 10th my mom took me birthday/ Christmas shopping. We ran into Melanie Parks and her kids (my sister-in-law) who had just gotten pictures with Santa. They looked very cute. Amy got her picture with Santa right after we ran into them. Neither Santa or Amy were very smiley, but that's OK.















This is a cute video of Amy that happened sometime in the week of December 10 - 16. I don't know, but I know when the pictures before and after this were taken.

For Family Home Evening on the 17th, we joined the Schaefermeyers for Christmas caroling some neighbors. We bundled Amy up, and Matt carried her in the little backpack carrier thing under his coat so she would stay warm.
