Sweet Molasses

Sitting here in Kansas with the in-laws,
This week starts my Christmas holiday break from school, how sweet it is to have fun with family and no worries but getting fat with all the delicious food that is bad for me, so far my favorites this season food wise is caramel chocolate pretzels, blackberry pie, banana bars and See’s peanut brittle. Good thing its warm here in Kansas so I can go running it all off each morning. The break started off with lots of fun in the car for 8 hours through the mountains. Glorious weather as we passed Vail and Copper Mountain with jealousy stirring with every skier I saw coming down the slopes. 2 more weeks before I get the fix I need. We reached my parents in Colorado Springs with love and a fun game of king’s crown. There the next day after I woke up and made my dad help me find a few gifts for Christmas for a couple of hours, while the rest of the family fancied up the house with decorations and tons of food with lots of loved ones. My father had no idea he was about to have his first surprise Birthday party at 50. It was a blast. My new son was passed around like a bad cold, I think he liked it.
Shortly after that Brandi and I took Brevan and Leo to Kansas where we are getting to spend time with the Heinitz family and some good friends here in Garden City. I plan on creating a new skit with The best man friend named Cody C. I hope it all goes good because we are doing it the day before I leave. On the 24th there will be a little present opening and story sharing, after which some more driving to Goodland with the Hurst side for a day of family and games. On Christmas day even more driving with my family to Colorado to see the family and more of the Clonts side and a few more present sharing. I can’t wait to see what my little wifey got me this season. I hope she is excited as I will be when she sees her gifts I got for her. This break better go slow, like molasses filling a bucket, because I need the break and need lots of video gaming to catch up on.
I hope all of your Holiday season’s are safe and bright and that as we come to this time and the memory of our saviors birth and life, that we each take a chance to read the Scriptures and think about how important the life and ministry of Jesus Christ was and still is to each of us for the great plan of Salvation that our Father in Heaven has for each of us. I love my Savior and pray that I will always remember his Gospel that is filling the earth even today. Become more Christ-like with all that you do and be caring and kind to your fellow brothers and sisters. Love it…

Gather together and don’t burn the Cabin…
