| Christmas at Home |
Because I’m a month behind in writing the blog, it might
look as though I am mourning the Mitt Romney loss but that is not the
cause.
We have been very busy this
past month with activities that were not exciting enough to write about until
now.
We finished our work with the
Stake Nativity Festival this past week and that means that Norma can take a
little break.
During her break she
can work frantically to get ready for Christmas.
This will be our Christmas blog. Many of you will be reading it as a result of our invitation
in the Christmas letter to visit the blog. We hope you enjoyed the letter, and now we invite you to
enjoy our Christmas reminiscing in photos, together with the photos of our
activities during the past six months.

| The Nativity |
Christmas has several ingredients, which unite together to
wrap up the Spirit. I think these
ingredients are; the story, music, images, light, gifts, food, friends and
family.
For me, the story of Christmas begins with Third Nephi,
chapter one:
12 “And it came to pass that he cried
mightily unto the Lord all that day; and behold, the voice of the Lord came
unto him, saying: 13 “Lift up
your head and be of good cheer; for behold, the time is at hand, and on this
night shall the sign be given, and on the morrow come I into the world, to show
unto the world that I will fulfill all that which I have caused to be spoken by
the mouth of my holy prophets.
14 “Behold, I come unto my own, to fulfill all things which I have
made known unto the children of men from the foundation of the world, and to do
the will, both of the Father and of the Son—of the Father because of me, and of
the Son because of my flesh. And behold, the time is at hand, and this night
shall the sign be given.” We read
the rest of the story in St. Luke.
I hope you enjoy the photo gallery of Christmas
images of the past few years.
Merry Christmas and happy New Year
