Quatre images d'un jour pendant la vie de mon fils.


La voiture est trop petite pour mon fils! Il marche dans les rues à la place!
La jour de soleil à Calais
Il fait froid, oui!
Un dîner de thanksgiving pour tout les missioniares à Calalis et à Lille aussi.

Christmas Day phone call...
Us: How was Christmas Eve? (feeling very sorry for Tony that he wasn't enjoying our little family dinner that night)
Tony: Well, it all started with a 12 course meal at a member's house (no longer are we feeling guilty). First course was caviar. Second course was goose liver pâte. Next course was oysters...(and he went on to list the remaining 9 french courses...I think he ate at La Caille!).
Us: How is the missionary work? (assuming he is able to actually move and teach after a 12 course meal)
Tony: Très bien. President gave us a challenge to pass out more copies of the Book of Mormon than ever during Christmas. We were able to give 17 away in 2 weeks. Lots of teaching appointments came from that.
Us: What are you doing after this phone call? (again, feeling very sorry that he isn't home to watch our annual Christmas evening movie)
Tony: Oh, we are going to ride this huge open air ferris wheel that looks over all of France in the evening (did I mention we were just going to watch a stupid movie?)

So, in summary...pizza vs. 12 courses, huge success with Book of Mormons, Toy Story 3 vs. a view of the Eiffel Tower at night. Un Joyeux Noël indeed!!
