Sister Missionaries for Christmas Dinner

We invited the sister missionaries for dinner on Christmas evening. The girls wanted our traditional gnocchi with meat sauce. 

It takes awhile to make the gnocchi, so I started boiling the potatoes around 3 pm. Dinner was at 5 pm, and once the gnocchi dough was made, Amy and I worked non-stop on dinner until 5.

The other girls helped with drinks and setting the table. 

The sister missionaries were only allowed to stay for an hour and a half. We shared our Christmas cracker tradition with them and Kristen had fun making them personalized to each of us.


We had dinner and then Sister Romeril (in back) and Sister Sotela (in front on the right) went downstairs to sing and play the piano with Kristen. They all sounded great together. Chris recorded a short video and sent it to the sisters’ parents.
