Decorating for Christmas

 

Our first week in Taiwan we helped prepare for an all mission conference.  The missionaries met for a morning of training, and a big Thanksgiving dinner (more about that in the next post). And the mission wanted the stake center decorated for Christmas before they came. We spent a good portion of the day decorating this tree. First we were supporting and helping the young missionaries, but it took a lot longer than expected due to two major problems. 1. The limbs kept falling off because of broken parts, and 2. we didn't have as many lights as needed to string them the way we wanted to. In the end it was adults doing the work while the missionaries went to other appointments, but despite the problems, we think it turned out really nice!

We also have a Christmas tree for our apartment.
