Between friday and saturday we got about 8 inches of snow. Jamie played in it and Mick and I worked in it. Mick learned several things in using the snow blower. Ist and foremost, you must wear a hat while operating. Mick spent hours getting the LONG driveway cleared and scraped, only to have snow again sunday morning. There was a big debate on whether to have church, but the Bishop and 2nd Counselor, aka Mick,decided to have sacrament meeting and then decide whether to have the rest of the block at church. We had a slippery drive there and very few in attendance. Jamie thinks it is hilarious how the Jersians don't go anywhere. "What is the big deal" she says, "it's like they haven't seen snow!" I was the main speaker in sacrament meeting. Told the family story of Christmas in 1920 where Dally got a doll and toys from here sister Ida (my grandmother) and brother. Also the tradition of the orange in the sock. Christmas means giving was the title of the talk.

Looks like so much fun! We tried to go to Salt Lake today and it took an hour to get to Orem so we turned around and came home. James is out plowing now but it is still coming down so we may have to plow again. We are suppose to get snow again Wed. and Thursday. A white Christmas! We are going to make some sugar cookies now! Fun times!
That was a great talk Joni! Your tree looks so different with so many ornaments on it... ha ha
