Bob: It has been a snowy Saturday here. I have cleaned the car off 3 times and as I look out the window now it is covered with snow again. Not sure how many inches of snow we have gotten, but church is never cancelled here. The instructions are if you don't feel safe driving then don't come to church. The Branch President is a retired semi-truck driver and he says he will be at church if anyone chooses to come. I heard that one time he and his Counselor conducted Sacrament with only one other person present. Hasn't happened to us yet.
We had our Christmas dinner today. Brad, Warren and Ev Cambridge, and the 2 missionaries were here with us. Bonnie fixed a turkey and stuffed the bird. The turkey was very moist and delicious. I believe cooking the turkey in a cooking bag is the very best way to get a moist turkey.
Bonnie and I picked up Sister Joyce Simon about 6:00 and went to clean the church. There was so much snow on the road up to the church that I took an alternate way and came down the hill to the church. The road crews haven't gotten to that street yet.
Well it's time for bed. Hope your weekend has been great. Love to all and good night brothers.

Bonnie: The dinner was a success, although the Villneff's didn't make it, which is disappointing. We had fun with everyone here, though. And the best part was that the Elders and Brad did the dishes!
It didn't take long to clean the church, thankfully. Sister Simon is retired custodian so she knows just what to do. With the three of us it went quickly. When we returned home, I had to do some preparations for church tomorrow, so that took up most of the evening.
It will be nice to get back to our Branch. We have plans to go Home Teaching with Brad after church, and after we give the sacrament to Phyllis in the nursing home. I have three cookie plates made up, plus a special ornament for Phyllis that one of the RS counselors made. It looks like it will be an enjoyable Sabbath.
May we all have enjoyable Sabbaths as we honor our Savior tomorrow.
Love, Mom/Bonnie
