Christmas Day






















I woke at midnight with a surprise, the refrigerator hose for the ice cubes had sprung a leak and was spraying. When I went down to turn off the water there was a big puddle on the floor of the basement. We'll have to get it fixed, but the water drained into the cracks of the basement. The Sister missionaries got up at 6:30 AM to open their presents. The family came over around 10 AM to open the rest of the presents and to eat. Some of us played Rummykub and Phase 10. It was fun. Of course we ate again and wished Grandma Foster a Happy Birthday. Adrian and Brittany called and we all sang Happy Birthday to Brittany who was in Texas. Sarah called while the girls were opening up presents from her. It was a good Day. Mary, Amanda, Eva, and the kids stayed the night as there was to be a big storm. We watched the new Harry Potter movies we bought.

One of the presents we unwrapped this morning was a scrapbook put together with pictures and a note from all the Sister Missionaries that have lived with us. It was a wonderful, thoughtful gift that will be cherished.
