We are just all over the place!

December 20, we attended Sean's baptism in Boise. He was baptized and confirmed by his grandpa. We are so happy we were able to be there.  Darcy and Tom and family drove up from Ogden and we had a good group of family there.  Annie planned an elegant refreshment table.  Creighton gave a talk on baptism and I gave a talk about the Holy Ghost.  It was well attended from the ward and also by friends Annie works with.

 

Then we celebrated Christmas with Darcy, Tom, Brady, Creighton, Bennett and Annie and Sean.

 








Creighton got a batman costume from Annie.


The boys got yoda hats from Darcy.




 And, I don't know how they got so old! and tall!

Tom and Darcy, et all went south to Utah and we went North to McCall

 and had Christmas at the cabin!

                                         Lunch at Lardo's

Sean wrote several notes to Santa including one that said, "Ho! Ho!" spelled out in marshmallows.

  

 

And after Boise, we went to Chicago to spend some of Christmastime with Scott and Jessica (and the nugget).  We played lots of cards and ate lots of treats.

 

 

We spent a day with the Middletons.  Mary Ellen and I are planning a houseboat vacation in this picture. We discovered that we have the same down coat from Costco in the very same color!!     Twins!                                                    



We are so blessed to be able to spend the Christmas season with so many loved ones, including family and  missionaries and old and new friends.  We covered a lot of miles and had a great time!  We still have 12 months to go on our mission and now that we are back in Duluth, we are anxious to have more missionary and seminary experiences.  Oh, and it's cold!

Have a wonderful 2015!
