Hi William,
Last Saturday we had our annual Day of Caring at Church. We made about 25 toy Dumptruck baskets full of toys for little boys and 25 cradles baskets full of toys for little girls. It was fun and I would rather help make Christmas a little more fun for some children than to sit around eating at a ward Christmas party. A lot of people asked how you were doing and are so happy to hear that you are doing so well.
We got a lot of snow this weekend and it has been very cold. The high has been around 20 degrees, and everything is just grey and cloudy. I am looking forward to some sunshine later this week.
We bought some catfish at the store this week, and will be making it up tomorrow with some dirty rice and some hush puppies. I am really looking forward to that.
Mary Ann has decorated the house up very nicely for Christmas, The living room has been rearranged to make room for the tree, and "the stockings are hung by the chimney with care." Everything is ready for Christmas, now we just have to get some presents. Mary Ann is excited to see her kids again, and they will be here in just a couple of weeks. We keep saying that we need to get your christmas box into the mail, so this is your last chance to tell me what you would like for Christmas? I hope things are still moving forward for your latest baptisms. We are so happy that you are having so much success finding people that are ready to receive the gospel.
Well it has been a slow week, so I will close now.
We love you and our prayers are always with you.
Dad, Mary Ann, and Benson
