Happy New Year

Well, another year is almost gone. Today is New Year's Eve. It is a beautiful sunny day here, with snow on the ground. The mountain's look fantastic ! Everyone have fun tonight, but be careful. We want everyone to start the new year happy and alive !! Start your new year with a vow to pray always and keep our Lord and Saviour in your mind and heart at all times. Love to Everyone

Christmas

Christmas is over for another year. It sure came and went fast! We had a wonderful time with our children and grandchildren. It is so fun when they are all together. Hope everyone else had a nice Christmas, and remembered why we celebrate. It is great to stop and reflect on the birth of our Saviour and all that he did for our benefit. What a terrific and humbling experience it is. Love to All

Lot's of SNOW !!!

Lot's of really fluffy snow ! Some kids on our block built us a big snowman in our backyard. It is AWESOME ! This is great snow for building snowmen, forts, or whatever. Have Fun everyone and enjoy this beautiful day.

SNOW !!

We finally got some snow. It is very pretty to look at. Everything was so brown and drab.
The sun is shining and making it melt. I know most everyone hates to have the snow, but the first snowfall of the year is always exciting. It feels more like Christmas time. Any way, have a nice day and remember to give thanks for this beautiful day. Love Ya,

Holidays

Well, Thanksgiving is done. Sure went by fast. Ours was great and hope yours was too. Now starts all the partys and shopping and eating. These are all fun things, but try to remember why we celebrate. It isn't Santa Claus and presents, but the birth of our Saviour Jesus Christ. Make sure your familys know why you are celebrating. Remember to serve as He would serve, and give as He would give. Love you all

Next Step

Well, our Mission is over. We need to attend our last staff meeting Friday morning. We will be officially gone then. Our last day at the center was extremely busy. It was good to be busy, but it was sad that so many people have lost their jobs. Their are still lots of jobs around, you just have to know where and how to get them. That's what the Missionaries at the Employment Center do. It was a good Mission.
I just finished my visiting teaching. We have three sisters. It is fun to visit with them. We spend about an hour at teach sisters !!! There's always lots to talk about.
It is another beautiful day. Enjoy it, that is what life is about. Pray always and be kind to one another.

Mission

Well, our mission is almost over. Next week is our last week. I'm glad it's over because of the work, but I will desperately miss the people. The Missionaries I have worked with and are awe inspiring in their knowledge. There is one dear friend that I will really miss. We have made plans to go to the Temple together once in awhile. I will also miss the people who come in to the Employment Office. It's sad that they are looking for work, but they are all wonderful in their own way. Some are desperate and besides the help, need the spiritual lift. It is wonderful to see the change in their outlooks. Don't know what we will do after our Mission. We've informed the ward that we are available. Don't know if that was the best idea !!!! Ha Ha ! Anyway, it is another beautiful day, and life goes on. Keep doing your best and pray always. Love you.

Election

Well, the election's are over. I hope everyone realizes that Obama and the Democrats are pushing socialism. You better prepare for some bad times. What he wants to do was pushed by every Dictator Europe had, from which we had to rescue them several times.

Now away from the bad news. Today is a beautiful day. Cold, but sunny. Enjoy it, even if it is just looking out your windows or standing in your yard for a few minutes. It will make feel good.

Halloween

Halloween was fun. I think we had a kazillion kids ! A lot of the same ones from the "Trunk or Treat". They were all cute and scary !!! We have a lot of candy left.

I got an e-mail from my school. They apologized a lot. There's probably a reason. We usually have a lot going on in November and December. It will give me one less thing to worry about.

I am bummed ! My school lost my file and didn't find it in time for me start school this week. Now I have to wait until January. I was so excited but I'm really down in the dumps now. Does it have to be cloudy outside, today ? It just makes me feel worse.

Sorry about the colors. I've tried getting cuter backgrounds from "CutestBlogon the Block", but don't seem to get it !!! Someone will have to come and help me.

Our ward had a Trunk or Treat last night. There was a ton of kids!! It was a lot of fun, though. Little kids are so into their costumes. They love to believe that's who they really are. Halloween will be fun. Probably will see all the same kids again plus a few thousand more !!!

We just got back from early voting. There was a long line so it took about an hour. Everyone remember to get out and vote. You may not think it is much, but if you don't, you may regret it in the years to come.

Our mission is almost over. The week before Thanksgiving will be our last day. It has been an interesting and rewarding experience.
