Snow...snow...snow

We had a bit of a scare as we searched for our perfect Christmas tree. Dasha and Davie, the dogs, came with us. They were out exploring. All of a sudden they ran straight past us at lightning speed and heading toward home. Their tails were not wagging, and they were not barking. They were obviously scared of something and heading for home. Our search for a perfect Christmas tree quickly ended as we found our ALMOST perfect tree. James chopped it down, and we SWIFTLY hiked home with sled and tree in hand!
Our kind neighbors allowed us to chop one of their trees down for Christmas. It was so neat to just walk out of our front door and walk a few hundred yards to the backyard and choose a tree.

Yes, he is really holding the tree!
One of our daily morning activities was sledding during Peter's nap time. How fun to have our very own sledding hill for a few months.

There were so many GOOD people we met and loved in Grangeville. We will miss them tremendously, and hope to never forget their warm hearts and open arms. This is the Perin family over for a little Sunday evening which we shared music together.
This is Helen. She was an angel mother to me for the 5 months we were there. We got to play music together at the Nursing Home. There were a lot of other wonderful families, but unfortunately we don't have pictures of everyone. The ward was incredible. We loved watching BYU football games at the Lutz' and Peterson's homes as well. Oh, we will miss Grangeville so so much.
