Christmas was quiet in Washington, just us here so we invited the missionaries over for dinner. It was nice to enjoy them in our home. On the 27th we headed for snow country. We enjoyed the 28th through 1st with all of the kids at a cabin in Island Park. No more quiet! We are a loud bunch most of the time. We had a blast in the snow and it just kept coming down! We played games, and ate, and rode snowmobiles, and ate, soaked our bones in the hot tub on the back patio, and ate, went tubing and warmed by the cozy fire, and drank hot chocolate at the end of the day! There is nothing quite like having time with such a great family. Thanks all of you!
