Christmas Parties

I have to admit--I like planning parties.  The Cattaraugus Branch had it's Christmas party on December 20, 2012.   This year I got to be in the middle of things.  It took lots of time and attention, but everyone seemed to have a great time.  Good food, good friends, and fun program. Even a Cattaraugus Branch Men's Chorus singing, "A Christmas Spectacular."  Thanks to Heath Garlow, Santa made his annual visit as well.

Just a few days prior to this, Brother and Sister Ted and Denise Hoca threw a festive neighborhood Christmas party.  We had President and Grandpa Jones there to entertain, lots of great food, some fun games, and several non-member friends to visit with.  Then, on Christmas Eve morning, the Hoca's made breakfast for the missionaries, a tradition that Brother Hoca began many years ago.  You can't ask for better member-missionaries than the Hocas.  They have become dear friends.
