Elder Thackeray's Christmas message

This was too big to put in an email so I hope it fits here.
I know it's not much of a video but it's the audio that's cool.
I love my missionary boy!

So this is Christmas!

Our Christmas Eve tradition includes a re-enactment of the Nativity with our cute neighbors, the Freeman family.





























We got our Christmas phone call from Johnny! He's doing very well. We had a whole hour to visit. We thoroughly enjoyed talking to him and hearing his strong testimony of the gospel. Yes, we did cry (not Jason) but it was a good cry.









Next it was off to Wa Wa Kathy's for food and fun. This is Harper opening her present. Johnny drew her name and sent her some Hoosier racing attire:)














Last stop, Grandma Thackeray's to hang with the fam for awhile. Everyone was intrigued by the new puzzles that one of the kids got for Christmas. It was an awesome holiday!
