Christmas in MONTANA

A little bit of everything happened during our Christmas Break in Montana.

1st and foremost the TRADITION...Donna likes to sign us up for their stake nativity every year we come up for Christmas, this year I was a Shephard along with Amber. Em and Don were Mary and Joseph. Aaron, Dustin and Linus(their German foreign exchange student) were the Wisemen.

Us in action, not to mention, it was nine degrees!!! Montana gets pretty cold in the winter.

SURPRISE!!!While we were up there Dustin had his Quart of Honor. Aaron earned his but had not recieved it because it was right before his move to Texas, so it was a great surprise when Dan called Aaron to come up on stage to recieve his EAGLE.

What a Christmas trip! We had so much fun, we just love being able to go up and spend time with Aarons family. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

CAT ANYONE ????

Does any of of you out there want the best cat in the world?
She is so cute, her name is Nollie, she already has had her shots,
she is neutered, she is an inside/outside cat, she is super cuddly and loving
We got her when she was born, she is now 1 year and 5 months.
We have to get ride of her because the place we live does not allow cats.
So if there is anyone that would want her please let me know!!!
