We had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. We had our first family visitors! Our son Chad and his wife Mairin came from London. We had 19 for dinner on Thursday evening. We loved having our home filled with family and missionaries. Thanks to Elder and Sister Brostrom for helping with the food and fun!

On Friday we went on a tour of the opera house. It is an amazing building. The clouds look worse than they were. We did not have rain…just cold.
We strolled the streets of Oslo with Chad and Mairin. I took this picture out the window of the second floor of Burger King when we stopped to rest!

Saturday night we attended a Jul i toner Christmas concert. Sister Leland and Sister Gates were able to play their violins. It was a wonderful way to feel the spirit of Christmas and enjoy the talents of members and other musicians from the area.
We have so much to be thankful for and we are so grateful for this beautiful country and all the wonderful experiences that we are having in Norway!

I am so grateful for you and President Hill and all you do for our missionaries and in turn for our family and for my mother heart. Thank you Sister Hill, for all you do for the mission and for taking the time to write these blog posts which are like nuggets of pure gold as we learn (and see) how well our missionaries are doing in your care. Everything you do, down to the last morsel of yummy food, helps move the work forward as these great missionaries feel loved and cared for! We love you!
Such a gift you give us when you Blog!
Loved this!
