They had so many different cheeses to choose from. We got a sandwich with yummy Virginia ham.
They had all their Christmas decorations up.
They lit the luminaries, which was really nice and warm, too. We also sang Christmas Carols. They even sang Oh, Come All Ye Faithful in Latin.
For Alexis' Young Women's project she decided to plan and prepare meals. She made her own reciepe book and we did a little shopping for supplies. She decided to make homemade gnocchi with wild mushroom sauce, spicy green beans, guacamole and chips for an appetizer and for dessert flan. Wow!!! It was amazing. She made everything from scratch all by herself and it was delicious. You can't tell from these pictures how great it smelled. What a great cook she is!!!!
We decorated the Christmas tree with a little help from Alexis' friends, Maggie, Anna, and Darakshan. They had never decorated a tree before. We also made ginger cookies and had egg nog, another first for them.
All topped off with a star. Thanks Alexis.
