We were only able to attend two of the branch Christmas parties but what fun. They were well attended and so much food. The Primary sang many songs, and then the Young Women sang. They had a play of the Nativity and watched a video of the Savior’s birth. Large kettles of rice, pilaf (rice with meat and seasoning), and large chipoties were served to all. (I’m sure my spelling is wrong but a chipotie is a large bread like tortilla made from yeast dough and oil. When I say large, it is about the size of a dinner plate and they love them. The saints eat a lot of food and warm soda. What a happy and loving people.

I'm so glad to see that you two are having really great experiences! Those kids are so so cute! When I come I might want to take one home! I am also very excited to try all that different food! Love and miss you so much!
I love that smile on Dads face when he was helping with the dough. It makes me smile and really miss him.
I am with Maddie. I want to take one home. I love the look of the girls in the beginning of the post, the one on my right looks a little sassy - she is my favorite. I wish I could come and experience this great gathering. I would love to meet all of the members.
The pictures of the children melt your heart. It will take years to remove the smiles from your faces.
I love that they are all dressed up in their best. They all look so happy! I also love the photo of Bruce smiling. It is good to see the joy and light in your faces. ♥
