Ben's Birthday

Today is Ben's birthday, and he turned 22. This morning we went to church, where we are feeling more and more at home. After church, Ben took the opportunity to play the piano for a while, and very much impressed a couple of the kids with some of his pieces. He and Susan have been asked to perform the accompaniment for the ward Christmas program on Wednesday evening, so we will be going back on Tuesday evening for them to practice again.

After coming home from church, we spent the rest of the day here, sleeping, reading, doing e-mail and such, and then playing a game of 99 [don't ask] this evening. Ben finally won as the last person standing. He also received a chocolate bar for a birthday present, and ate the whole thing. We have discovered that they have chocolate bars here that are really good, and we are already planning to take a bunch of them home. Of course, we are consuming some here as we go along, just to verify quality control.

It has been a very quiet, pleasant day, with a lot more sunshine than yesterday.
