So at 9:30 Christmas morning we turned on our son-in-law's laptop and SKYPED with Harry! It was so great!
Much thanks to the Ardis family who let him use their laptop and fed him (and apparently every Sunday). They have an 8 year old daughter who bugged him a lot of the time we were talking and we loved it.
We met his companion from Stockholm, heard about a few investigators and the ward (about 150 members). AND he showed us his very pointed toe shoes to go with is posh grey suit.
It was funny we thought he had a bit of an accent and then he turned on his Essex accent which was really thick.
I really don't remember a lot of the conversation because I was concentrating on his face, which has gotten a little chubby from being well fed but it is such a CUTE face.
I am sooo grateful to live in this miraculous age of technology!
It was the best Christmas present!
