A Nice Weekend

I have been quite outspoken about all the snow shoveling during December, so I thought I might just mention (yet again) that winter can be quite beautiful as this photo snapped Friday clearly shows.

Mount Timpanogos from the park

Friday evening we attended our monthly Group Dinner at the Boynton's. Vickie made some wonderful Italian dishes including the very best pesto I have ever eaten; it helps to live in Italy for a few years. It is always fun to get together with this group of great friends. Vern and Jerry, we missed you.

Saturday we went shopping as usual. That evening we went with Stephen, Ann, and Millie to Sam Hawk for supper.

Sunday I spoke in Sacrament Meeting and taught the High Priest lesson. In the evening the family gathered for Sunday dinner. We missed the Hastings as Anna had Primary duties that couldn't be missed.

Delicious bruschetta!

Fun friends

The best pesto ever

"One never grows old at table"
(loose translation from Italian)

Thanks Rod, Vick, et al.

Just back from our hunter/gatherer expedition

That's all for now.

Is that pesto recipe available for others?
That picture of Timp is amazing,
and I am quite sad to have missed Sunday.

That Timp picture is beautiful! Also the picture of the Pesto is beautiful!

Timp is gorgeous! Looking forward to a few days of snow the end of next month. (Food doesn't look bad either!)

Just catching up on all of your holiday posts. Looks like a wonderful time during the High Dickie Days. I miss those Greek dinner fests!

That picture of Timp is gorgeous. We have no snow here, and it's starting to bug....except that you would point out that I should be glad I'm not shoveling any driveways over and over again.

That pesto is dreamy! But in a different kind of way than say Brad Pitt or Jake Gyllenhall...
