It was wonderful to talk to Angela for more than an hour and a half. The missionaries were able to go to an office and use the phones for free to talk to their families. In the course of the conversation we learned that Sister Blackham's name is Holly. They are working in Cookeville, Tennessee, and in the Burgess Falls Ward. They live in a 1-bedroom apartment over the law office of the ward's Bishop. She had two Christmas breakfasts and dinner was to come later in the day. She enjoyed her Christmas gifts and seemed happy. Oh, she did mention that while she was walking with her companions and the Spanish-speaking Sisters earlier in the week that she had a real close conversation with the pavement. Just all of a sudden she had fallen to the ground, ruined her stockings, and turned her ankle. She had to rest the remainder of the day, but she was back to work the next.
