Hey,
all.

| Wait, this can't be right... |

| That's better! (Yes, it's an old joke -- sue me whydon'tya?) |
Things
are going pretty well here; a member in the ward gave us gift cards to a pie
place. We're probably going to get pies and some apple cider and have a
little party for New Year's. The weather warmed up quite a bit recently
but then it got cold again but I don't mind. That's okay, you don't have
to get me Eccos at least not yet (2 months in, and his first pair of shoes was already beginning to wear out) and go ahead and hold off on the food and CDs
for now. I'll be good for awhile.

... I did open the box from you, it was terrific and thank you very
much. The way that I changed up, "I Heard the Bells"
was as follows: mezzo piano on the first verse, mezzo forte on the
second verse, acapella piano on the third verse, gradual crescendo to forte on
the fourth verse, and double forte on the fifth verse. (this
is Musical Stuff. Do not be alarmed if it makes no sense. Personally,
I prefer to not think of music as an exacting, mathematical
discipline. Music is like Love, or Electricity: Magic.) It was excellent
and there are some people in the ward who are wanting me to sing a special
musical number for January. I'll probably pick something from Sally
DeFord. I'm looking forward to it.
Have
a Happy New Year and a great rest of your week. It's so wonderful to
hear about everything that's going on in the family, that you had a good
experience in the temple, and that Naomi had a great teaching experience. ...I look forward
to writing you next week.
Love,
Elder
McMurray
