The weather for the past couple of weeks has been bitterly cold and snowy, with temperatures much of the time being well below zero (F).  Today is a nice change.  The temperature is in the teens, the sun is shining, and the kids are outside enjoying the snow by sledding down the hill.  We live on the side of a mountain in Jefferson City, Montana, which makes driving difficult, and sledding easy.

Desire’ pointed out this morning that this is the first time in several years that we will be having a White Christmas.  The beauty is making up for all those cold and snowy days we have had for a while.  Unfortunately, our daughter Heather, and Carol’s mom were not able to make it here as planned because of the unpredictable weather we have been having.  None the less, we are very thankful for this beautiful day we have received. 

This evening we will be attending our Christmas Eve service at our church, then we will come home and open gifts.

The Perfect Christmas Eve!
