Performance of The Messiah at Royal Albert Hall

We had the privilege of going into London this past Friday December 14th to hear a very large choir perform The Messiah at Royal Albert Hall. Our seats were up in what is called the Circle (Seats 78 & 79 row 4). We had an excellent view of the choir and orchestra. The choir had about 300 members so we could hear it great. Brother and Sister Rushforth (friends of Sister Kiddle's aunts Joyce and Valerie) drove us into London. Royal Albert Hall is incredible. As the picture we are including shows, it is a round building with many entrances that move the audience in and out very efficiently.

This past week we also received a package from home. Katrina & Brett's family sent us some angels made out of foam craft (displayed on the Mantel) and Cameron & Amber's family sent us angels they had made out of polymer clay (displayed on our little tree). The pictures are below. We love them and are enjoying them.






This past week at the Temple we were trained as Baptistry Co-ordinators by Elder and Sister Bartschi who have completed their mission and are on their way home to Utah. They will be missed at the temple. We will be on our own this week in the Baptistry. 

We wish our family and friends a very Merry Christmas and Blessed New Year.

Love Elder & Sister Kiddle
