Christmas summary

So I'm keeping this blogger as sort of a family history/journal type thing...I wonder if one day I'll forget it's here & it will be deleted forever. I'm sure it's in the term of use, however, who really ever reads those things...it's like that little snippit at the end of Dharma & Greg from Chuck Lowry - or whatever his name is - apparently you really have to be curious enough to record it and then pause it so you can read - and he's a funny dude...it's like his own blogger on TV for all to read, but you have to record & play back then pause it. So when I'm old & grey, or just plain dead - will this be around for my posterity and friends to read? And will they think I'm a dork because I spell grey, not gray, and really - did you learn in school homonym class which to use where? It's all so confusing. I'm just typing to see what my "new and improved google" blog looks like. I have no opinion. Doesn't look too different to me.

My new favorite scripture...

D&C 18:35-36 "It is my voice which speaketh [the scriptures] unto you; for they are given by my spirit unto you, and by my power you can read them one to another; and save it were by my power you could not have them; Wherefore, you can testify that you have heard my voice, and know my words."

What a powerful testimony we could be to the world with that knowledge.

We took the kids to the Mesa Temple to see the Christmas lights - inside the visitor's center we sat at the foot of the Christus and heard words from Christ. Later, we watched the "Luke 2" video. It's times like this that I really miss Grandma Nancy. She loved being there.

Froze my donkey off!!

We took the kids to Flagstaff this weekend to go sledding! What a fun thing that turned into. Brynn didn't like the cold, to say the least, but she loved eating the snow - we just set her in a fresh patch of white only & let her dine!

and Howie really got into sledding. He would stay on that sled no matter WHAT! What a serious sportsman!!

Rossi found a really cool jump!

Kiersten tried to make a snowman out of dry snow and a special Thanks to Kiersten for teaching me that freezing my ass off isn't nearly as cool as freezing my donkey off!

Here's Kali just being her cute little self - looking a little sassy, don't you think? They had a ton of fun - I could post pictures till the cows came in - maybe more tomorrow!
