Merry Christmas

The Christmas presents have been open and are strewn on the living room floor. Scott is putting together his Legos Mars Mission, with several hundred pieces he'll be busy for awhile. That was what he wanted from Santa and is so excited to have it. There are still presents under the tree for Whitney, Jesse, Randi & Kaiser. They are opening presents at their apt. first then coming up to our house. It's starting to snow already and we're in for a major snowstorm today, we could get anywhere from 7-9 inches of snow in the valleys, my parents could end up with a foot or more where they live up on the mountain, fun for Christmas day. Not so fun for traveling, which we won't be doing today, unless we can get out and back before the snow starts to accumulate. I get too nervous driving in the snow for long distances.
Hope that all of you have a wonderful Christmas day with your families. May I close by sharing a quote that was on the front page of the Deseret News this morning under a picture of the Christus in the Visitor's Center on Temple Square. The quote is from President Monson,
"If we are to have the very best Christmas ever, we must listen for the sound of the sandaled feet. We must reach out for the Carpenter's hand. With every step we take in His footsteps, we
abandon a doubt and gain a truth."
