Our Lame Excuse of a Christmas Card

Photo By Emilie -1851

I think I've abandoned my traditional Christmas "to do" list this year, including sending cards to our family and friends. I've noticed a theme with several of the cards we've received and if it's true that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then many of you should be very flattered.

The Spirit of Christmas

Today we had the best lesson about Christ in Young Women's. It was just incredible and I think it meant a lot to our girl's. It involved blindfolds, music, and symbols of Christ that were placed into their hands throughout the lesson. The room was silent and a sweet peace filled the hour we were together.

Our family also watched the First Presidency Christmas Devotional tonight. It was excellent. I'm happy we have these reminders of the true meaning of the holiday.
