Back in November, we were asked to serve on the Christmas dinner committee. It turned out that Sister Williams who was called to be over the event, turned in names and she just picked the missionaries who's last name began with the letter "H." So, the committee was made up of Elder and Sister Harper, Elder and Sister Hufstetler, Sister Hoen and us with Sister Williams and her husband as chairmen. Our assignment was to work with the Hufstelers on a vegetable and the main dish item.
We started the day by having the Hufstetlers over for breakfast at 8:00 a.m. After breakfast, we went over to the stake center to Start preparing for the 3:30 p.m. dinner. Sister Hufstetler had an orange chicken dish that she wanted to do. We cooked the chicken and beans in roaster ovens

Sister Williams wanted all the men on the committee plus two others she recruited to hop serve to wear some special aprons she ordered. Originally she wanted the men to serve tables but we convinced her that making three serving lines would be much faster and more efficient. Everyone was served in about eight minutes.

The clean up started right after serving and through the program so that when the program ended we had most of the washing of pans etc. done. By the time we got home, we were tired. It was a long day
