One thing I love about Oregon


 
One thing I love about Oregon......... it doesn't snow very often, but when it does .....everything is cancelled.  Everything.  Relief Society night, basketball practices, tournaments/games, work, school, church, all of it.  And yes, compared to some places 6-7 inches is no big deal, but for us we stay at home and get to be together as a family for days!!!!  The kids have had a blast!  Thank you snow!
 



 Here is Nicole's movie she made of our fun!

  3. Wow! What a wonderful occasion to have. Artic wind. Did you guys see Frozen?!

    Krystal, you are a rockstar. Bless you, and Dave, for blessing us with such a beautiful family.

    Dave! Whats with the beard dude?! LOL. Remember all the times in.Spokane where we wishex and hoped and prayed for that Artic wind to.come blow us some snow so we could sled and ride the snowmobiles and the horses in the snow : ). Gimme a call please. I have some questions about what i've been discussing in Gospel Doctrine.

    Nate! You are so TALL! Basketball? Keep it up! You may outgrow your pops!

    Derek, you are such the gentleman.
    You are such a kind hearted soul. Don't ever change. And keep on dreaming. Bless you buddy. : )

    Lauren, sweet little miss #2! You are such a pure bundle of joy. Just like that snow, and the bundle of joy you made from it. Keep being the sweet lil thing you are sweets! Do you still have your bracelet? I'll tell you and Nicole a SUPER special story about those bracelets! : )

    Kurty! You are a smiler! I miss your beautiful smiling face. Never stop smiling. : )

    Nicole, lil miss #1, : ), you are an ARTIST. In so many ways. This was amazing. Truly scrumptious : ). Don't ever quit. You are going places young lady! Who is the band and name of the song on the video? I SO want to know. And how Socialaires is going! Tell Mr. Friesen Aloha for me.

    I miss you guys so much and wish i was there playing in the snow right along with you! I love you all. Keep bringing the light unto the world that you all do.

    Hugs and kisses. XOXO.
    Aloha my Ohana.
