Week 18

9 December

Everyone delights to hear Stephen read Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins at each Hanukkah presentation we do—he varies his voice for the different characters.

10 December

I’m finally managing to get my Christmas decorations put up for the season.

11 December

On my way to and from the BYU Women Christmas luncheon, I passed Santa and his elf in front of the MTC. They were jolly and friendly but had specifically chosen this location from which to advertise an anti-Mormon website.

12 December

In the background you can see the remains of our delicious pancake dinner served by John and Lora. And then Maya treated us with belly laughs when she pulled the lever down on her toy—I love how children can be thrilled with something simple time and time again.

13 December

I made these Christmas stockings for the children years ago—I got a tip from Linda that there were some available at the store. They had just the right number left—three girls and three boys. I stitched the names in white baby rickrack and finished them off. Now they are more decorative than anything, although they saw their share of bananas, apples, oranges, nuts, and candy.

14 December

Merlyn has been my hairdresser for years—she first started cutting my hair when Jonathan was a baby and she worked at J C Penney. For years now she has done it in her home in southwest Provo. I go every three months for a perm and halfway in between for a haircut—hooray, I love looking good!


15 December

I was looking for a background so the snow pattern on the fence would show up, and what did I find in my viewer but a lovely tree in the shape of a Y!
