Christmas on a mission!

So, I wanted to share with everyone our Christmas Eve day.  It was fun, exciting, and different to have Christmas away from home.  But here are some of the things that we did.


1. I got A LOT of candy!!

 At my house, we get silly string in our stockings, and so we went out back and had a little silly string war.


Sister Cluff getting ready for war!
 The damage done...
But then we had a brilliant idea, we were to save the rest of the can and use it tonight at dinner with the Elders.  So we put our cans safely away and went to visit some people.

This is the view from the van der Boon home.  Yes, this is the view of where I serve.  That is Hidden Valley lake in the middle.













Another angle from their porch.  It was 70 degrees on Christmas Eve, so we spent as much as possible outside!
 Then we went to dinner early, spoke to the people that invited us over.  Told them our plan and were completely up for it.  Then we hid in the back, She asked the Elders to come and "move a chair for them out back."  They willing did so and then we pulled out our cans and sprayed them down!!!  It was epic!

The results... Oh it was funny!
















We did not have time on Christmas to open presents, so we did them German style and opened them on Christmas Eve.

















Thanks for ALL the wonderful Presents everyone!!!
You are the best!  :)
