Snow Update











The snow is almost gone. Eugene cleared the neighborhood driveways and then it snowed again on Saturday. He didn't have to do any more clearing though because it all melted. I don't know how snow can melt when it feels so cold out. Its been in the 40's but with a wind blowing you get chilled to the bone. I didn't get these pictures posted when we received the big snowstorm that closed school for two days so just remember, these pictures go with the last blog.

I also wanted to comment on the loss of our dear prophet, President Gordon B. Hinckley. We will miss him so much, but are grateful he is with his love, Sister Hinckley. We have been so blessed to have had such an example of love and sacrifice.

President Monson will be a wonderful prophet. We have loved him for many many years. He was one of my favorite speakers as a youth and that was a long time ago. I love his sweet nature and kind voice. It is so much easier to be called to repentence by a kind voice. He has chosen 2 wonderful men as his counselors. Elder Eyring was put in as President of Ricks College when Eugene and I were there. He is the most humble of men. President Uchtdorf I know will bring a new energy to The First Presidency. What a great combination!
