ImageFor the third year in a row, Bert hung Christmas lights in the palm trees at the Mesa Arizona Temple. This year he also hung lights in a huge ash tree - Total hours spent: about 75. I don't think they will ever let him go.

We stayed with my parents and visited with Laura, Julie and her family, Heather and her family, and many of Bert's siblings and some cousins. It was REALLY special.

Christmas, 2007

Hi Everyone,

I have had such a great time visiting family this Christmas. It was wonderful because Bert had Christmas Eve and Christmas off, so we celebrated with family in Utah. I'm now in Maryland with Derek's family and he's helping me create a blog. My, I'm learning new things all the time.

Bert visited his children just before Christmas so I'll post pictures of them and I'll also post some pictures of the Hansen children and grandchildren. It is such a joy to have so many grandchildren to love.
