Happy Anniversary, Sweetheart!

Happy Anniversary, Mikey.

I have loved starting eternity with you.

Here's to 5 years . . . and counting.

I love you.

Happy Suprise!

This morning I woke up to this beautiful surprise!
About three inches of fresh, white snow coupled with blue skies . . .
. . . but this was the BEST surprise of the morning! Our driveway and walkways were all cleared. Our bishop received a snowplow attachment for his four-wheeler for Christmas. Now, every time it snows he's out there like a little kid with a new toy. He's all smiles as he goes around helping people. Thank you, Bishop. That was so sweet!

Christmas Lights

One of my favorite Christmas activities is going downtown to see the Christmas lights. I just love the atmosphere of downtown at Christmas time. It's so happy and festive. This year my Grandma Verda booked a week in a condo that was right across the street from the Conference Center. She didn't stay down there the whole week, so she let Mikey and me stay down there for a night, which happened to be the night they turned the lights on at Temple Square. So a lot of my family met up to walk around and see the lights and then go back to the condo for donuts and hot chocolate. After everyone went home, Mikey and I even went out for another walk--just the two of us. I can't image a better night to bring in the Christmas Season.
This was the view from the outside of the condo.

Back-tracking!
