Let it snow

It is sure looking like winter. We had about 6 inches of snow last week and even more in the mountains. It is so pretty, snow on all the trees. Yesterday we piled all the kids but Oakley into the truck and drove up Rock Creek to the mountains to find a Christmas tree. We stopped along the way to go sledding on a side hill and it really started snowing hard. Roy (Kari's brother) and Stephanie and some of their kids came a little later so we kept sledding for a while. Then we drove on up the mountain a little farther, breaking trail in about a foot of snow. We came up on a couple of elk but it didn't take them long to get out of there. There were all kinds of tracks crossing the road. Colton wanted to stop and sled the whole time and we all were watching out for the "perfect tree." We found a good one and loaded it up in the truck. Roy found one and we got it loaded and headed for home. We made it home before dark and hurried in to warm by the fire. We went to Roy and Stephanies for dinner and games for the night. It was a great time for all. Today was church and it was snowing when we left for Baker, it snowed the whole day through and we were almost snowed out coming home. The wind is blowing pretty hard and drifts are going to be a problem. I doubt Colton will be going to school tomorrow, he will probably want to go sledding. I started my new job at Baker Veterinary Hospital which I love. I work with great people, 3 other doctors, and good staff. I recieved a new calling in church and will be working with Scouts and Young Men again, I am excited and glad to serve the Lord. Christmas season is here and the kids love putting up the decorations. My mom has done well getting us lots of ornaments and decor for the Holidays. I hope you all have a good holiday season and remember the Savior and know HE loves you. Love, Josh
