Goodies and theTemple (Sounds like a Disney movie)

One of our holiday family traditions is to get together and make goodie plates to take around to friends and neighbors. I do miss doing it with my mom and sisters but I have still kept the tradition alive. Saturday, we went to my friend, Amys new house and made our yummy plates.

Last night for family home evening, we went to the temple and watched the nativity story and then went inside and walked through the "Reflections of Christ" exhibit. We then went and watched "Joy to the World" in the theater there. Here is a little excerpt from it.
I am so glad that I finished my shopping a little early and can now focus on the true meaning of Christmas.
I am so thankful for a loving Heavenly Father who would send his son to live in this cruel, evil world. The sufferings that he endured on my behalf are incomprehensible to me. I am thankful for the atonement and the peace it has brought me in my life. I know that Jesus lives. I love him and am so thankful for this time of year that we get to celebrate his birth.
