Today was a good day

Sundays are usually one of the most hectic days in the Snyder household. Sacrament starts at 8:30 a.m and we have a 20 minute drive to our chapel so technically we have to be ready by 8 in order to make it on time. All my boys were wearing the same tie, thanks to John and Carrie who sent us those lovely ties for their wedding. Everyone commented on them at church. My boys wanted to look like their dad today and they did.
The lesson in Relief Society was on Elder Packers talk Prayer and Promptings. I had been asked about 3 weeks ago if I would share a few thoughts about my relationship with teh Savior, how I have felt prompted through prayer and the blessings that have come through following the spirit. It was a very tender lesson. I have been in a reflective mood for the past week trying to sort out feelings and experiences. I have had some tender moments and I know that God lives and that He loves me.
The boys took great naps. I love those days when all three of my boys sleep at the same time. Owen missed out on his morning nap so he took a great afternoon one. I layed down on my bed with my other two and we read books until we all fell asleep. They can be so sweet. Especially when they are sleeping.

We were invited to dinner at a friends home from our previous ward. The Chesley's invited us over for some Prime Rib, baked potatoes and other great food. Not only was the food great, we loved the entertainment, the kids got along just fabulous and it all turned out very nicely. Only sad thing is, we missed the Presidency's Christmas devotional. My mom recorded it so we can watch it later.

We had our first snow fall today. It started out really small and then the flakes great very large and before you knew it, there was half an inch on the ground. The boys are so excited. Hopefully we will get some more tomorrow. The forecast predicts more. The boys are eager to go sledding, so am I.
It was a good day overall. I can't complain. I am usually ready for the day to end but today was nice. Thank you Keaton, Andrew and Owen for behaving so well, and thank you Lance for helping me out. You were fun to be around tonight. I love you all!
