Mongolian Merry Christmas

While Eric was in Mongolia, he had traditional Mongolian dels and hats made for each member of the family. Tonight, after an enjoyable family dinner, we surprised the family with these delightful, colorful outfits and went caroling through the neighborhood in full regalia. It was a bit nostalgic for Eric, but we had a grand time as we shared a little bit in the wonderful experience he had for the past two years in Mongolia.

Heidi's family received their dels a couple of weeks ago, while Eric, Claudia and Mark visited in Oregon. Don't Zach and Tyler make handsome little Mongolians?

At this wonderful time of year when we celebrate the anniversary of our Savior's birth, please know of our love for you. May you know that you are always welcome to our hearth and home, whether in spirit or in person. Merry Christmas!
