Day #24 - Christmas Eve (Heilig Abend)
Here in Austria, the presents are exchanged on Christmas Eve (or Heilig Abend). We were invited to be with the Veit family from the ward. It was an awesome experience. We sang Christmas carols and hymns together and we had a great time. We were surprised to learn that we also received gifts. The boys were SO excited, and they really enjoyed their gifts. We have played the Thomas Uno game in German at least 100 times already. And Liam loved his presents, too. It was such a special evening. They have a son on a mission in Russia, and it was so nice of them to have us over, even though he called while we were there. We love the ward here, and they have been taking interest and supporting us.
