Week 35 - December 25-30

On Monday the 24 we called Jeff and the drove to

 his home in Syracuse.  We enjoyed a nice visit and

 lunch at Olive Garden together. 

Wednesday we were so glad to be parking in the garage.  As we were stopped at a stop light on the way in to the FHL this snow covered car pulled up beside us.  It reminded us of the blessing we have received from the Johnson to be able to  park in their garage this winter.

The line was a little shorter at the Giving Machine 

after Christmas so we decided to donate.  We

bought a pair of chickens (a rooster and a hen).   

Thursday we enjoyed a visit from family.    This
picture was taken after spending the afternoon
 in the Family History Library.  

We looked at lights while waiting for dinner at

"The Garden" in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. 

I enjoyed an appetizer of a fried dill pickle.

Cousins went sledding at Mueller Park Junior High 

School on Friday.  It has a beautiful hill
and just enough snow.

It was fun for everyone.

Cousins went skiing at Cherry Peak on Saturday.

 Arizona and New Mexico kids even had the opportunity to build a snowman Sunday evening before heading home.  The snow was perfect for all three snow activities (skiing, sledding and building a snowman) this holiday season.

Here is Daisy that brought more cousins 

together.  Daisy's new home is in New Mexico.

 

This is a log cabin on highway 89 between Bountiful and Salt Lake City.  It looks lived in with lights, Christmas wreath on the front door and tracks to the door.  I wonder what it is like on the inside.  Do you think they would invite me in if I knocked on the door?

A THOUGHT FOR YOU

1 Nephi 15:24

And I said unto them that it was the word of God; and whoso would hearken unto the word of God, and would hold fast unto it, they would never perish; neither could the temptations and the fiery darts of the adversary overpower them unto blindness, to lead them away to destruction.
