3 hours of fun

One snowy Monday, a few weeks before Christmas we went sledding with some friends at 4:30pm. At 5:30, as a family we got to go and pick our first real Christmas tree in the freezing, freezing cold weather. It was really fun to pick out a tree with the children. It was dark and snowing and carols were blasting and it was a very memorable activity to do. At 6:00 we met the Pope's for pizza for Hyrum's birthday and had a "We can't believe it moment", eating with their family in the states! We never would have expected to be living so close to friends from Perth while we were over here. While it was a struggle to fit everything in that we wanted that night, it was a great time.
