FHE at the Mission Office - special performance by Elder Hansen
On an outing to the German Embassy to see their Christmas "bazzar" with food and lots of fun things. It was raining. After riding the metro, some decided to walk to the embassy because it was only supposed to be "down the street a little" instead of waiting 15 minutes for a bus. The walk in the rain lasted about 30 minutes. but it was fun!

After the visit to the German Embassy we decided to go to a German restaurant because all of the German food had been sold. Jim ordered Pork Knuckle - a huge piece of meat but very tasty. I ordered a dish but wanted the sides that came with another dish. We thought we comunicated that to the waitress. Soon the watress brought two dishes and placed them in front of me. One dish had the meat I wanted (with the regular sides) and the other dish had the sides I wanted (with the meat I didn't want). The waitress then brought Jim's Pork Knuckle. We had Three dinners! The funny thing about this is that Jim and I usually split one dinner between us. We had a ton of food for the entire table! Andersons, Packards, Scott, Budds, and us

I must be fun to be able to eat in each others homes. Is it roomy or are you just a good photographer. So Mom/Dad why are you the ones w/o at hat on. All Babuska's wear hat's...or are you trying to start a new trend. The restaurants look fascinating as well!
