Args really wanted a formal Christmas photo taken this year for our Christmas Card, which if the planets align, will go out tomorrow in the mail. (look for your copy Saturday, Monday, or worst case scenario, after Christmas). The shoot didn't quite go as expected. We don't exactly have the right equipment and Jane and Ben were a little rambunctious. You can check out the edited gallery here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/22003077@N07/sets/72157603499229780
Yes, those are the best photos that we got. Thanks TIm for bring a champ.

I am a Son/Daughter of God
Last night the bishop assigned me to teach the fifth Sunday lesson to the young men and young women in January. I was pleased at his confidence in me to address this group and came home focused on discovering what the Lord would have the youth know at this time. What ensued was a two hour scripture study and contemplation on my own teenage years - the good times i had and the challenges I faced. At the conclusion of my stud i think i had determined what would be most beneficial to the youth at this time. I'm impressed that both the young womens theme and the young mens purpose state at the very beginning 'we are daughters of our heavenly father' or 'I am a son of God.' Too often as a teenager (primarily Junior High) i felt outcast, rejected, alone, or insecure. If only i had known then what i know now - that i am a son of God and that carried with it divine nature and powerful blessings. It's hard for ones actions
to be in contrary with church teachings if one really knows who he or she is.
