Special Dinner & Winter Wonderland

Weekend before last we invited the couples we had served with in the MTC Russian Branch over for dinner and to see our new home. I prepared savory filled blinis for the main course and that made a fun menu. We love our new branch assignment, but we had missed being with these couples from our old branch. We enjoyed an evening together and a chance to renew our friendhip.






Winter Wonderland - we awoke on Sunday to snow falling and it fell for most of the day - resulting in 6 to 8 inches. We have had a very dry winter and the moisture was welcome but not the driving on slick roads to the MTC. The snowfall made everything beautiful and I had to snap some pictures of the scene.

  1. Whoa you did get a lot of snow. Your Russia dinner sounds fun. I wish you were here to help plan a King Cake party. We are so good at planning "theme" dinners. ;)

  2. What beautiful pictures. Snow is a lot prettier to look at than drive in! Your dinner party looks so nice.

  3. Winter Wonderland is right! It is so beautiful, but not fun to shovel or to drive on! I can tell by those couples' faces that they are really special people. How great that you had them over for dinner and caught up with each other. I'll bet it was a yummy dinner and a fun evening.
