Opening Christmas?

Last night we had the missionaries over for FHE. It has been our tradition for the past several weeks since we can manage to have an investigator every week.
It has been very rewarding for us to be able to share the gospel and the missionaries take charge of everything. (I feed them and fix the treat)
Last night Elder Horch shared one of his family traditions, it was called opening Christmas.
There were several wrapped presents. The presents are opened by the youngest to the oldest. Each present is a clue to what you are supposed to do next.
The first present was a hymnal. We took turns choosing Christmas songs from the hymn book, and sang almost all of them. I loved that part.
Then they unwrapped the book The Night Before Christmas and read it.
The next gift was the Christmas count down book and we got to keep it.
Then my favorite part they unwrapped the scriptures. They read the birth of Christ from the Book of Mormon and the Bible in alternating scriptures.
It was awesome!
The last gift was chocolate covered cherries! Yummy!
They call it opening Christmas and it is done the first Monday of December.
It is not too late if you want to start it this year.
It was one of the best FHE's we have had.
