At the beginning of the month Casey was blessed with a motorbike. He is very excited about riding the trails in the area. Casey and my Dad modified the back foot pegs so Zane can ride on it with him. They are both excited about the many adventures to be had in the future. The best part was Zane's first ride, when they got back he told me they went "SSSSSOOOOOOOO FFFFAAASSSTTT!!!" Casey never left first gear!
Zane and I made a Christmas wreath for the front of our house using a wreath and Christmas ornaments from the thrift store. All you need is a hot glue gun and you have a great inexpensive wreath.
We were blessed to have some time with family over the Holidays. My parents came over a few days before Christmas and stayed a week and my brother and family came for a few days after Christmas. Zane and I did a hike with Grandpa on the Sunset and Eshom Creek trails here at Hartland.
We had a fun Christmas day celebrating the birth of Jesus. Zane choose to use some of his personnel money to buy some fruit trees for families in need in another country. It was a blessing to us as parents to see his desire to help a family out that isn't as fortunate as him, and to pick something that will benefit a family for years to come.
On the last day of everyone's visit we got about 5 inches of snow!! Lots of fun was had by all. Even the ones that didn't bring pants to the mountains when they knew there was a chance of snow.
We are very thankful for our month of December. Time with family was such a huge blessing. May you all have a very blessed New Year.
