Wendy and Christina's Visit

The Sunday before Christmas, we were excited to have our daughters come and visit us. It was the first we had seen Christina since she left on her mission over 1 1/2 years ago. We were thrilled to have both of them and Sherrie's mother with us for Christmas. We went to the mountains and stayed a night in a beautiful home of our mission president and also went dancing and did the tourist thing as well. 

We crashed a stake dance in order to get in some latin dancing. Wendy lives to latin dance. There were not a lot of youth in attendance but the music was loud and it was fast. We all got into it!

 On Christmas day we went with some of the other senior missionary couple to a retirement/nursing home. It was nice and we sang to the residents. The humanitarian missionary couple brought some quilts that were donated to the residents as well. The Catholic nun was very gracious and very appreciative.

Our Christmas tree was a traditional "charamico". It is easy to care for! We had it up in our apartment since last Christmas.

 The girls are excited!

 We were so excited to get a family calendar that the kids put together when they were at Wendy's house at Thanksgiving. We loved it and so did Grandma.

 I loved my ties too.

Ahhhhhh! Nothing like going to the beach at Christmas time!!!!! Sherrie never stops being a missionary! See her name tag!
