Lights on the Christmas Tree
Setting up the Nativities
I got this one this weekend. An early Christmas present because I'm spoiled. It is absolutely breathtaking. The expressiveness of the gestures of protection and love inspire me. It is an amazing work of art.
This one is made from the lava/ash from Mt St Helens. Nate got it when he went to Washington to be with his brother when their baby was born very prematurely.
This one is from Guatemala. Nate got it when he went with Hirsche Smiles a couple years ago. 
This is the one I started collecting for the girls to add a touch of Christmas to their room.And then my very first Nativity is at Nate's office. The Boyd's Bears just fit the theme there.

Didn't the snowstorm just round out the list too? Felt like something was missing almost :)
I noticed your missed call today but no message so I didn't know if it warranted a call back. I'm around.
I agree! Don't forget Bing Crosby singing Christmas carols. It was great seeing you guys last month...
Those nativities would look great at the Kirtland historic sites this year!!! :()) CAn I tell you how much I LOVE Jeni Jones! I remember you telling me how great she was before you moved and now that I work with her in the Stake, I would agree! Hope you guys have a great Christmas.
I loved your list! You inspire me to remember the best things!
I love your new nativity set! And that tree looks so gorgeous - I was trying to picture all the windows and the tall tree. So sad that I just have to imagine. We'll find a way to get out there sooner or later! Thanks for the sweet comment on our blog. I miss you too!
