Ron and I enjoyed a warm December 2010 celebrating our second Christmas in Johannesburg's springtime weather. The Area Presidency hosted a dinner December 14 in their garage followed by a musical program commemorating the Savior's nativity.
On Sunday, December 19 we hosted dinner in our flat for six elders serving in our area. Three were North American (Arizona, California and Utah) and one each from South Africa, Kenya and Uganda. Ron and I doubled up on the amount of food we prepared so had plenty of leftover potato salad and ostrich meat spaghetti sauce, etc. to send home with them.
Ron was caught in the mirror being the photographer for a Christmas morning brunch and caroling with Senior Missionaries.
The main topic of conversation was Christmas visits with children and grandchildren. The best invention ever for Senior Missionaries is Skype!
We enjoyed "seeing" our family living across the U.S. and in Okinawa, Japan, via the miracle of technology. Our three grandchildren born in 2010 were nonconversant. Roxy (7 months old) was napping while 6 week old Canon inquisitively gazed around at his world. Scarlett (6 weeks old) smiled at her daddy while being held in his arms and received his totally adoring smile in return.
Our heartfelt wish for you in 2011 is "peace, goodwill toward men".
