SKYPING ELDER HYRUM RICHARDSON

December 25, 2014

We were all so, so excited to talk to Elder Hyrum Richardson on SKYPE on Christmas Day!!! We introduced him to Richard and they talked in Chinese. We sang "I Am A Child of God" to him in Chinese and he said we sounded like "Main-landers." We have a "main land accent" according to Hyrum. Pretty funny. Melissa had the wonderful idea for us to have a family prayer together which was so cool. We love you Hyrum and are so proud of you!

CHRISTMAS DAY

December 25, 2014

A day of celebration and a gift giving.

Everyone is ready for the Christmas races!!! We are all gathered in Dad and Mom's room and are clarifying the rules for the race and the path that everyone will run. Ready to race!

Here we go to see what Santa has brought! We always line up youngest to oldest! Can you tell me how David got in front of Mason?????

Bethany likes to be the one to pass out presents. Everyone gets 1 present to open and then we go around and see what everyone received. It spreads out the fun and lets us all see what is going on.
