raining........

It never rains in Southern California...ya, that song is psycho...not heavy ..just steady... nice day to be inside doing computer or reading and making cookies to take to neighbors...snickerdoodles to be exact...and we took them under a big umbrella. We have the Christmas lights on the trees and Christmas music playing in the sewing room...
Our choir did our program in Church today so we had the whole afternoon free !!!!

goal

I have officially passed off all my memorizing with my trainer..before 4 months at the temple. I am also beyond my goal for the year of 100 endowment sessions...I have started filling in free time doing initiatories. Today was awesome..now that I am not so stressed I am enjoying the people I work with and getting to know them better.

Busy Saturday !!

We went to our city's 60th parade this morning and to the Methodist church's EXCELLANT Bethlehem walk this evening.. I took lotsa pictures !!

sewing and baking

Today I spent sewing Christmas gifts, baking zucchini bread for home teaching and visiting teaching people, and reading Christmas stories !! It was lovely. Tonight we will deliver !
