A Breath of Fresh Air

Christmas was great getting to spend time with Family!  There was a slight new dusting of snow Christmas eve, just in time to make the Christmas spirit a little brighter.  Also, we got a chance to talk to Shawn and he sounds like he is doing very well. We are proud of him and know that he is doing what he should be!  I love the Christmas time of year, the music, the snow, family at home, and most of all the opportunity to get to ponder on the life of our savior.  What a beautiful day it was on Saturday, Blue sky, and sunshine glistening the freshly fallen snow.  It was absolutely breathtaking to be out and about and view gods creations!

We were spoiled receiving lots of great gifts from family and friends.  Autumn is very excited because she got a Pillow Pet (Miss Ladybug), yes she wanted one for Christmas.  I think her Kindergartners are rubbing off on her! lol  She loves teaching and loves being there with the kids, she always has fun stories to tell of the funny little things that the kids do from day to day!  But, I think that she was excited for the Christmas Break too!  She also got a couple new vest's, so she can go to town in style ( she will love that I put this in here).

I got a new GPS unit to put in the vehicles while we are traveling, my dad has had one for a couple years and we have all enjoyed using it!  It will be fun getting to use mine now.  I also got a new assortment of wild rags (cowboy style scarf's), they sure do make a difference in the cold weather to keep a guy warm.  I too have been outfitted with a new wardrobe (so that I can be seen in public again, j/k).

Well the snow is falling like crazy right now!  I am looking forward to a new year and a breathe of fresh air.  I have yet to determine what my resolutions are going to be, so hopefully you all have yours figured out.  maybe you could send me some ideas! lol  Gotta go for now!

Christmas Week!

Christmas is almost here which means that another month has flown by.  I think the thing that is most exciting this year is that we get an opportunity to talk to Shawn (Elder Banks).  Everyone is really looking forward to hearing how he is doing!  We had a winter blast over the weekend, some much needed snow fell, however last night it warmed up enough to rain and now it is just icy and a mushy/slick mess.  I just hope there is still snow on Christmas, it makes me a little grouchy when there is not any snow for Christmas.  Well I guess I had better get to work, gotta make some money! lol Have a great day and thanks for reading!

Well here we go......

So this is a first for us, (actually Autumn does not know that I am doing this yet).  I thought that it would be cool to start and keep a blog, kind of like a journal, only a place where we can share our memories and fun eperiences with all of you!  While both Autumn and I are fairly busy with work we are still able to find a few moments here and there to have some fun and just enjoy life!  We have a great family that loves and supports us and we love them too!  This being the first post on the blog will be short, but hopefully the first of many to come!  Thanks again for being in our lives because if youre reading this then we must consider you Family, or Friends!
