Dinner with the Missionary Couple

We had the missionaries over for dinner last night. It was great! They are an older couple, serving here as Military Laison's and they are a lot of fun. We enjoyed having them in our home. We miss being around our Grandma's and Grandpa's and having them visit with us felt a little like that. It was a nice little piece of home. They are retired Navy and had lots of interesting stories. I made my nummy White Bean Chicken Chili, canned biscuits (not so nummy!) and Jell-o. For dessert we ate warm Apple Dump cake.... mmmmmmm! They stayed and had Family Home Evening with us and we each wrote out our New Years' Resolutions. Miah's was great - "Learn to write cursive". Jess had some good ones, "Be a good artist, Learn how to play the piano, and Learn to write cursive." (Cursive is just not a big thing now-a-days! They both admire my cursive skills and want to emulate me I guess! I wish they pushed it more in school, but I guess computers have eliminated the need for nice handwriting!!) Jillian's was a beautiful picture of a person with 3 arms and a rainbow dress. I added, "Learn to write my name". We just might accomplish that this year! I won't bore you with Chris and I's... but it was a lot of fun. We're so blessed to be able to associate with such great people here! Yay for Couple Missionaries!!
