Twelve Days of Christmas

Here's a little ditty some friends and I did at the ward talent show last night.

(Warning - it's a little over five minutes long - just FYI.)

Some explanations in case you need it.

1. There is a candy line after church each Sunday. There are over 100 children in our primary. This was the Bishop's wife.

2. Absent Hometeachers

3. Greetings and Salutations - One bishop counselor welcomes us this way EVERY time he conducts a meeting.

4. Please be reverent - with 100+ kids, 50 nursery kids, and 30+ babies, it's not a quiet meeting.

5 Nurseries -not exaggerating at all

6. Weeks of dinners -the relief society tries to have meals made for families when a baby is born. Six weeks of meals - incredible.

7. Emergency preparedness - we're big on this, living on the gulf coast.

8. Enrichment evites - the women's organization in our church has gone a bit overboard with the get-togethers

9. Million meetings - self explanatory

10. Ward-Split rumors - We're busting the seams of the building.

11. Sleepy residents - there are an extra lot of doctors, interns, residents, and students in our ward - hence the babies

12. Pregnant bellies - lots of families starting out.
