Dear Family,
Audio & Visual - Thanks to the internet and computer technology Mom & Dad thoroughly enjoyed video conferences with the Mills and Hreinson families this week. This seeing and hearing is a Hi-Tech way to turn the hearts of the children to the Fathers and the Fathers to the children.
Snow Swept - This week’s snowfall has given Dad a few more opportunities for outdoor, fresh-air exercise. Armed with a new, outdoor push-broom, Dad has made quick work of clearing the snow from driveway and sidewalks around the house.
Un-decorated - Mom & Dad, with a lot of time and effort and mixed emotions, have returned the house to the pre-Christmas look, by taking down, packing and storing the Christmas tree, garland, wreaths, nativity scenes and all related decorations, inside and out.
Michigan Missing - Ryan took Michael to the airport on Monday to catch a Delta flight to Salt Lake City. Michael started classes on Tuesday. Grandma is settled in a Yuma with plans to enjoy the nice weather there for the next few months. Dad has been finishing the new cabinet to match the existing woodwork in her bathroom and shoveled a few inches of snow from her driveway.
Knee-monia - Pedro Armando has been suffering from a severe infection in the knee that has a plastic/titanium joint. He will be in the hospital for a few weeks with hopes to save the joint. Meanwhile, he is experiencing a lot of pain and uncertainty. Remember him in your prayers!
Sports R Us - Dad played racquetball; Ryan & Jim played basketball; Vanessa played indoor soccer; Tyler played basketball; Samantha swam; Jacob played soccer; Olivia played soccer; Preston and Joshua played basketball; Olivia and Sophia danced... One busy bunch!
Sabbath - Dad spoke in Sacrament meeting on the “The Family Proclamation”. Mom invited the Bentley family to share our Sunday chicken & pasta dinner. She told her Uruguay family history exploits, and entertained and inspired us all.
Love y’all,
Mom & Dad
