The Joys of Life

Guess who we get to talk to in nine days??!! I'm so excited!
Abe's sister Marjorie gave us this ornament with Elder Fox's picture on it.  It makes me very happy!

Saddest little face ever.  No cause for alarm-- just a long day of being toted around to older siblings events.  Nothing a few fruit snacks can't fix.

It's a Christmas miracle-- it's like when someone sees the face of Mary in a cinnamon roll.  It's the symbol of Batman in Peter's hamburger.  He was so happy to share the miracle!

Few things make me happier than a houseful of laughing teenagers.

They make me feel sort of young and very old at the same time.

One of them said it was really cool to lay under the Christmas tree and look up from down below.  Apparently, that's only really good with a real tree.  Ours is fake and dense and the effect was lost.  Cute picture, though.

Faith and friends-- when they showed up for a bit, the older kids were like, "WHAT??!!!"  The Beehives and Deacons (12 and 13 year-olds in the church congregation) are hanging out?

They can't hang out yet!  

Abe's thoughts exactly.
