Hendricksen Christmas Party 2009

We had the Christmas Party at our house this year! And boy did we feel some togetherness!! I don't think our house has ever had so many people in it!! And this is just Scotts immediate side! Wowzers!!! We made a little Christmas Tree craft. Nothing fancy..we were going to EASY!

Played some games

Celebrated all of the December birthdays! (Jentry, Shelbey, Nicole, Nate, Ty and Bailee)

And then we had a special visitor come! The kids were so excited! He knew a little bit about each of them. He asked things like.. "Ty, do you have trouble staying in your bed at night?" He also whispered something into Jentrys ear about a rumour he had heard about her not believing in Santa anymore. She denied that quickly!! Its a good thing..because around here... "If you don't believe, you don't receive". So even if you don't believe....you better not tell your mom about it!

How did Santa know all of this?!

Chase was so so cute! After he sat on Santas lap all he wanted was for Scott to take him outside so he could see Santa's Reindeer!! He was so cute. But too bad for him...Santa only uses his reindeers on Christmas Eve! He cant go flying around in them just any old night!!

We had a great time!!

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland in speaking of the divinity of The Book of Mormon said: For 179 years this book has been examined and attacked, denied and deconstructed, targeted and torn apart like perhaps no other book in modern religious history—perhaps like no other book in any religious history. And still it stands. Failed theories about its origins have been born and parroted and have died—from Ethan Smith to Solomon Spaulding to deranged paranoid to cunning genius. None of these frankly pathetic answers for this book has ever withstood examination because there is no other answer than the one Joseph gave as its young unlearned translator. In this I stand with my own great-grandfather, who said simply enough, “No wicked man could write such a book as this; and no good man would write it, unless it were true and he were commanded of God to do so.” I testify that one cannot come to full faith in this latter-day work—and thereby find the fullest measure of peace and comfort in these, our times—until he or she embraces the divinity of the Book of Mormon and the Lord Jesus Christ, of whom it testifies. I ask that my testimony of the Book of Mormon and all that it implies, given today under my own oath and office, be recorded by men on earth and angels in heaven. I hope I have a few years left in my “last days,” but whether I do or do not, I want it absolutely clear when I stand before the judgment bar of God that I declared to the world, in the most straightforward language I could summon, that the Book of Mormon is true, that it came forth the way Joseph said it came forth and was given to bring happiness and hope to the faithful in the travail of the latter days.
