What Christmas is all About

Well Hello and Merry Christmas to everyone, including the people that I don't care about...I guess Merry Christmas to you. This is a blessed time of year, where people get together, unwrap presents, drink and sometimes unwrap eachother.

I wanted to send out this post before Christmas because we are not sending out Christmas cards. This is it...so you better freakin enjoy it!

This video describes why Christmas is cancelled...






That video is based on a true story you know. This next clip is from the greatest Christmas movie of all time and will forever put me in a good mood. So all you Scrooges and hairy green Grinch's out there enjoy this...




This last video wraps up our year end letter...




I would like to end with a scripture mentioning Santa and his great charm.
Revelation 8:13 "And I beheld, and heard Santa (an Angel) flying through the midst of heaven (Idaho), saying with a loud voice, Hoe, Hoe, Hoe, to the inhabiters of the earth (farmers) by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels (Adam, Michelle and interviewing for one more), which are yet to sound!"

There you have it Merry Christmas!!!!!

Thanksgiving 2009

This year was a fun Thanksgiving. We did our huge Fennell family Thanksgiving out at the Poteets. It's a little different now with everyone grown up and going their seperate ways. So out of like 7 or 8 of us that are about the same age...there were two of us left. So we missed everyone else who wasn't able to make it this year! But it was still a good time, good food, shot gun shooting, maybe two plays in football, a little basketball and Christmas lights up on the square. Adam was a little disappointed because he has grown up playing a turkey bowl everything Thanksgiving, but we don't do that here in Rupert, so that might have to be something we pick up.

Sugar Beet for Halloween

For this Halloween we decided to unload trucks and trucks filled with Beets. We actually did this for the entire month of October. It was the best time of my life...I decided I want to be a big sugar beet when I grow up. We started at about 7 am work until about 10 at night. Standing all day in the cold while Michelle was in a heated shack with chairs; greatest time of my life. It was good money though so I can't complain. Well enough said...just take a look at how fun this was.

This is the crew that ran the piler. Adam-operator, Aaron-platform worker, Michelle-Tear Shack boss, Melanie-Tear Shacker helper

Adam with his co-worker. Talk about a lot of beets huh?

Michelle with her little baby sister.

This is the end of one of our piles we made. We made two of these, probably about 300 yards long too!

Well that is it. Now you know what some of the harvest is all about.

Camping

Before the harvest we finally had the opportunity to do something we waited all summer because we couldn't do it back east....camping! And it was so much fun! We had perfect timing too because it great weather for that day a night...we got to do a little fishing, and then it snowed the next night. I haven't always been the biggest fan of camping, but we went last summer with our friends and loved it. So this past summer I was just so upset that we couldn't go camping, so I was so happy we had the chance to before the weather got bad.

Nauvoo

So back when we made our journey back from the east almost two months ago we stopped by Nauvoo and Carthage jail. And let me tell you...it was amazing! I was so glad that we had the opportunity to stop by there. It just strengthens my respect for the pioneers and Joseph Smith 100 times! The Nauvoo temple is just beautiful! We were able to go in and do a session and see the inside, and I couldn't believe how pretty it was. They had the original font, and the outside of the temple is 99% replica of the temple the pioneers made.

This is the original door from the jail, the middle hole is the bullet hole that kille Hyrum, and the hole on the side is where they broke the lock to get in the room
