THE ELDERS CHRISTMAS!

Elder Holley's Christmas Serenade!
Christmas Puzzle Tradition!
Snappy Happy!
Elder Holley and Elyse Puzzling!
Elders missed Christmas Eve Crab and Shrimp but LOVED going to the Prewitts (a non-member) for dinner and then LOVED going to the BAPTIST CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION along with the Crafts.
Elder Holley cashed in on a midnight snack of left over crab!
Games on Christmas Eve.
Elder Barth laughing to tears!
Elder Holley is SERIOUSLY COMPETITIVE. Showed us all what 3 YATZEE's is like.
Elyse out did us all the first round!
The AWESOME CHEESE PLAYER! Elder Barth made me laugh to tears also. YES IT WAS PAST 9:00 We all had a great time!
Elders are included in the family Christmas Eve P.J's (YES... my tree went UNdecorated this year! I had stowed all the deco. before thanksgiving and couldn't get to it in the few days I had home. Elyse's comment: ("quite frankly Mom, I'm surprised at you") Christmas was still fun. The Tree downstairs was decorated for the Elders. Does that count?
PACKAGES FROM HOME!
Presents and Phone calls!
Elder Barths AWESOME tie
Elder Holley LOVIN his HATS!
Elder Holley's favorite treat from home!
Elders Barths stuffed pockets!
Ear plugs, because the Elders live with a DEAF FAMILY, and their room is not insulated. They are special boys to live with Mr. Clarks daily morning sickness, and constant noise!
ENOUGH SAID! Monkey Powder and a slinky... Santa knows best!
and a new TOWEL...
The Shepard boy!

How fun it must be to have the Elders in your home! I got to speak to my little bro Christmas morning (he's serving in Oregon) Just thought it was pretty funny that my parents got him a GPS too... is that the new necessity for missionaries? Guess so.
