Yes, we did decorate for Christmas. Thanks to Jiffy for the the socks and ornaments, Stephanie for the candy canes and the Porters for the snowman. Most of the young missionaries had small christmas trees in their apartments. We took the missionaries double AA batteries in their christmas sacks. Then we found out that the fire alarms take 9 volt. So our intend was valid, but what can I say? Our house was build over tweny years ago and the fire alarm still works and takes AA batteries. Elder Graff told them to put the batteries in any toys that they got for Christmas or they could put them under their pillows and recharge at night.
