Craigs list, it was deliverd to our door yesterday!

The House

We had a great week at the Leetes'





Our drive from The Leetes' was straining, we had ice all the way to Redding!!! We saw 2 pickups and a truck and triler and one car off the road.


We returned home with the sun setting in Paso Robles.

We had our own Sacrament meeting this morning-the stake president called the Leetes and told them there would be no church today since the streets were all covered with ice and snow. Brian conducted the meeting and Kevin and I blessed and passed the sacrament. Brian gave a lesson he had prepaired for his primary class. "I can be kind to animals" was the subject for today, we all gave examples of animal experiences we have had in our lives.

We closed the Sacrament meeting and then went into the TV room and enjoyed the Church Presidents program from last week, Lois and I had seen it last week but the Leetes recorded it for a time when they could watch it all together, which turned out to be today!

Every on is in the kitchen now fixing our dinner. It sure smells good!
