Tour of the Peter Whitmer Home where the Book of Mormon was translated

Yesterday day we went on excursion to the Peter Whitmer home where the Book of Mormon was translated in the upper bedroom of the Whitmer home, and the place where the Church was organized in 1830.  Wow!!!   We loved our private tour with 2 other couples we serve with, the Battie's and the Jensen's, at the Templle.  We couldn't miss the spirit that was there as we listened of the extrodinary things that occured in that home.  This is where the golden plates were translated, and the Church was organized in 1830.  Read D&C 65:2.  We are getting spoiled at our visits to the restoration sights with our private tours.  I guess that is what happens when you come in the winter months.

We had our Mission Christmas Party last night with all the other Temple Mission couples.  We enjoyed the night playing games, singing Christmas carols, and enjoyed lots of fun and laughter.  They are a great group of friends.

It is raining today!  Everone we meet reminds us that this weather is not normal here and don't think winter is ever like this years weather!  We are enjoying everyminute of it!  

Our favorite gift this year is our families and friends!  You are in our hearts always and in our prayers daily.  Our favorite tecnology is skyping!   To see our families on the other end of the screen is the best!    You will always be our favorite gifts every day of the year.
