This Thanksgiving was very nice. There was lots of food! We had two turkeys, one was roasted and the other was deep fried. I think I liked the roasted better but that was because the deep fried did not turn out so well so there was not much to go around. What I enjoyed most about Thanksgiving was the family. It was fun to see Katie, Amy, and Trent. It was nice to see Trent, Amy's husband, and get better acquainted with him. It is always enjoyable when other kids come for a visit, like Rosemary and Dave (they came in October).
I have been reading the Conference edition of the Ensign. I really enjoyed Elder Uchdorf's talk. During conference I really like the singing and music. Also, to see the building, it is so magnificent and big.
I just sent out my Christmas Cards and I hope that you all enjoy them. I would love to receive a card or email from you. And for those who have sent some already, thank you! The thing I look forward to most about Christmas is seeing Milton and Joyce. I can't wait to have them come home from China. When we first moved to California Grandpa and I, did not know we were going to stay, so that was hard to take. But now I feel like they are the parents and I am the child as they have now taken care of me for ten years. I now am with Evelyn and Jim and have been here two years this month.

One of my favorite Christmas memory is when we were living at the saw mill. For Christmas Randell made Dick some chaps out of an old pair he had. He also made Deanna a table and two little chairs. In the wood oven I would bake cinnamon rolls for breakfast. It was a family favorite and came from a recipe that came from Wasatch.
I never thought I would live to see the fast approaching 2010. Let us see what it brings. Wishing you all health and happiness this Christmas!
