December 4 - 9, 2012

We returned from our China trip and found these beautiful Christmas decorations in our lobby. This is a real tree and spells sooooo good.

Poinsettias are everywhere and are gorgeous.

We finally took a walk down the Promenade at night to see all the lights on the buildings going down to the TST (Tsim Sha Tsui).

A view across the harbor to the Hong Kong side.

These are large buildings with lights on them.

These shredded squid stands had lots of people waiting to get some.  They must be good.

Another view across the harbor.

This was a Friday night and lots of people were down by the ferry.

In this view we are third from the top on the left.

It has been a quiet week since we returned Tuesday night.  Wonderful day at Church today.  It was the Primary Program and Sister Victor was in charge.  It turned out so well.  The children, all four of them, did a terrific job and their singing was beautiful.  After Church we went to the Wanchai Bldg. for the First Presidency Christmas Devotional and a local church choir performed.

We saw Elder Siebach at the Devotional.  He said he is doing great.  The language is coming along and he looks really happy.  (He is the grandson of our Palmyra Temple President.)  We sure love the Siebach.

Be sure to watch the new Nativity Video on lds.org, it is beautiful.  Remember the reason for the season, Christ lives and loves us.  We CAN return to live with Him again.  Be faithful, keep your covenants and endure to the end.  We send our love.
