December is the time we celebrate the birth of Our Savior, Jesus Christ. It's definitley a time of year where you can feel the brotherly love and peace that cpmes with the season. Our little communuity has a little spot that is a designated church history site. The Benson Grist Mill was operated by members of our church. It has been restored and in the summer is open for tours. The Tooele Valley is still quite rural. I love it! They still do "small town" things. They had a live nativity at the Grist Mill, so we decided to go check it out.
Real animals! Free hot chocolate! Christmas Music sung in the background! Very festive, and a good adventure to break up the hutls and bustle.
We also had a nativity at the Merritt Annual Christmas Party. We ate dinner and played Minute To Win It games too. Nothing funner than family fun!! Except when you lose a game (last picture). It's hard to be 5!
Grandpa Merrit was here because Grandma Merritt had a stroke.
She's reciving and on the mend!
