Instructions to our missionary:
The first day of Christmas is Dec. 14th, so open Package #1 on December 14th, package #2 on the 15th, and so on until you open package #12 on Christmas Day! We hope that you have fun knowing that we think about you every day!
On the first day of Christmas to add to your celebration,
We had to make this day a really COOL sensation.
Go ahead, don’t be afraid of just a little razzle,
To your Christmas Spirit this will really add the dazzle!

On the 2nd day of Christmas, we are steeped in tradition,
And so, to you out there, we are making this addition.
Christmas carols we’ve sent along your way
We hope these songs will brighten each and every day.

‘Tis the night before Christmas and all through the house,
Not a creature is stirring, not even a mouse.
This stocking was stuffed by your mother with care,
With hopes that your Christmas is more than just fair.
So open your goodies – your sock’s full to the top
With much love from your family that never will stop!

Has kept our thoughts close and helped us feel near!
