Bob: Merry Christmas to everyone. We hope you are enjoying Christmas eve. Our day has been wonderful. Because of Bonnie we have given out 2 Book of Mormons to residents here in the building and a Mo-Tab DVD to the resident managers. Delivered 4 other plates of goodies and just enjoyed the day.
Found a car wash that is less than 2 miles from our apartment. Washed the car today for $2. They told me they have it open year round. Makes me happy. I have to use a wand to spray the car, but it is inside and not very cold. If no one else is in line I can dry it off so the doors don't freeze shut!!
We hope your Christmas is all that can be hoped for. Love to all and good night brothers.

Bonnie: It has been a remarkable day. I felt that one of the seniors here should have a Book of Mormon this Christmas. She readily accepted it, having had previous experiences with an LDS woman who worked with her years ago. She also grew up in a little town with a meetinghouse for the church, although she was not allowed to go as a child. Anyway, she said she always wanted a Book of Mormon! That was neat. There is also a preacher here that holds services in his apartment. We thought we should try to give him one, also. He graciously accepted it, although we doubt he will read it. We made two other stops and enjoyed the visiting. We found out that we are missed at "Tea" which happens every day from 2 to 4. Most days we are not home, but we plan on going back when we can. We dropped off cookies to two other members of the church after that, and after washing the car, went home.
I can't believe it is Christmas Eve already. The time goes too quickly here. We have talked to some of our children and grandchildren tonight. I can't wait to see them again. My second oldest grandson will be ordained a deacon tomorrow, and be ready to pass the sacrament January 1st.
We hope all of our readers, both family and friends, have a special Christmas day tomorrow and feel our Savior's love for them. May there be peace on earth, if not tomorrow, someday soon.
Love, Mom/Bonnie
