Emily Wardle Personal History

 Dearest Lily and Isaac, This week has FLOWN by! Got to do baptisms with Emmy and Joseph Had our traditional clam chowder for Christmas Eve Christmas morning was lovely! I got a new canyoneering harness, 2  pairs of running shoes, new air pods, a paint by number of a family photo, a new wallet, a book to record my life history, and a bunch of treats Joseph got a Switch 2, so much of the break has been spent listening to him and Emmy play various games We were still feeling a little sick, so we didn't go to the Wardle Family Dinner thing - Papa CANNOT get sick Dad got the guest room primed and it's ready for paint now!! It SNOWED Friday night and off and on Saturday - it will probably melt tomorrow. Ha ha Harrison Family Christmas party was tonight.  The White Elephant gifts were awesome, as usual.  Joseph came home with the traditional "House" DVD's.  Haha! I have loved thinking about and reading about the Savior this week!  Christmas is the best. I love yo...

 Dearest Isaac and Lily, I love you guys so much!! Emmy and I got to see Frozen at Hale theater. The set was AWESOME!  Best Anna-turns-to-ice stage moment! I had lunch with my lady friends at Porcupine Got to play the organ at the temple - my last time to get to play Christmas music there since I don't play again till January Joseph came home on his birthday! We got pizza from Porcupine for his birthday dinner and made Tres Leche for dessert.  Yum! I've been sick most of the week - so super low energy levels Joseph and I went to Draper and did an Endowment session.  We got to sit NEXT to each other since I was over on the Men's side. That was cool I got the Family Calendar finished and sent to print.  Whew! Helped Dad down at the hangar get a service bulletin done Emmy put together a list of family activities for during the break, so we had Karaoke night tonight.  Dad started us off with a perfect rendition of "Tequila".  Emmy and I sang "For Good" and...

Dearest Lily and Isaac, This week just flew by! I applied for a job as an anesthesia tech at Primary Children's.  I did not get the aforementioned job Emmy and I went to a Cirque de Soleil Christmas show at Eccles. It was awesome!  I'd love to go again next year I got to go to a couple of Emmy's Highlites Community shows We did baptisms with Hana, but she had to leave for an appt before we got a photo I got to do Initiatories and play the Organ at the Draper temple I went to lunch with Becky Hanson. She's been diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer and starts chemo on the 17th. She could certainly use your prayers. Despite that heavy situation we had a great time together. I really enjoy her! Dad and I had a YESCO Christmas dinner thing. He works with great people! We got the new mulch all spread around finally  I've been practicing the organ like crazy!  I play in church today.  I've been thinking this week about the Christmas hymns and how amazing it is that Chr...

 Dearest Isaac and Lily, You two are such amazing sources of joy for me! Drove Eric's dump trailer to my mom's house and got her garden, ornamental grasses, pots etc all cleaned up and taken to the dump. Picked up Sister Pan's daughter from the airport on Tuesday and toodled around Salt Lake with her for the afternoon before taking her to the MTC Attended Joseph's Acapella concert at BYU on Wednesday.  It was SOOO fun!  Lily, I think you would thoroughly enjoy doing it! Emmy had her choir concert on Thursday.  The Skyline choirs are so lovely to listen to!  And even though Emmy thought her choirs' songs were not the best song choices, they sounded SOOO good! Emmy and I went to the Celebration of Christmas concert at BYU on Friday.  It was divine! Elder Christofferson was there, which was fun.  He was sitting on our same row, so we took a photo but didn't go bug him. Saturday I played the piano at the Ward Party for the Primary nativity.  It was ut...
