Writing Something

So, it's a bit pathetic that I change my blog background more than I blog, but oh well. Changing my background has at least inspired me to write something. This coming Sunday is typically when Richard and I begin decorating for Christmas. We always decorate the Sunday before Thanksgiving. I haven't yet convinced Richard to get a tree before Thanksgiving, but hopefully I can make that happen one day. This year we are postponing this event until after Thanksgiving. Instead of decorating, this coming Sunday we get to go to a Christmas devotional for temple workers in the Washington DC temple. Other than making us push back our decorating extravaganza, the devotional's timing works out perfect because this Sunday is stake conference. So, after conference we'll take off and make it to Maryland just in time for the devotional. I love going to the temple, so I suppose it's okay that I postpone decorating for a few days--five to be exact.

The winter theme on the blog's background is in anticipation of snow this weekend. It typically snows the weekend of stake conference, however, it might be a good thing if the snow holds off for a few days so we can make it to the temple and back safely.

Oh, and I almost forgot to mention that Richard and I are also working at the temple the Saturday after Thanksgiving. We thought it would be fun to work that weekend as a lot of workers might not be able to come to the temple if they are off with family or vacationing. Yea for us!!!

Actually Robert, if you were still out here we'd take you with us to the devotional as we can take family with us.

Bummer, wish we could be there. Dress warm! I'll miss seeing the DC temple lights.
Miss you guys.
