THANKSGIVING TO VALENTINES!

Jordan River Temple, while in Utah for Thanksgiving with SpilkersWhen we went down to Utah to have Thanksgiving with the Spilkers (Teresa’s clan), we told them all “We’ll see you in the spring!” because the road in Wyoming are uncertain in the winter.

While down there we visited the beautiful Jordan River temple. You have to think of these things when you live up in Wyoming (making the most use of your trip, when you are headed down to the “big city”).

 

 

 

So we had Christmas in Rawlins, USA and it was simple and sweet.

Fortunately, we were able to meet up with the Favero clan at the 7F Ranch in Robertson, WY just before New Year’s.

For Christmas, Ben Favero gave Jeff a ring – a replica of the ring from The Lord of The Rings. So Teresa posted something on Ben’s Facebook about its affect on Jeff.

She wrote the following with the attached pictures:

Ben, I'm sure Jeffrey would like to thank you for the Ring you gave him for Christmas...however, he couldn't take his eyes off it, kept calling it his "Precious", said you gave it to him for his "birthday" - and now he has gone missing!

The only special event in January was when Kaytie & Christian brought their chubby little Noah to visit while passing through on I-80.

We were able to get down to Utah sooner than expected because Joe Favero, my (Jeff’s) brother, decided to share our anniversary by getting sealed (married) on Valentine’s Day in the Brigham City Temple to his bride – Brienna.

When Joe broke the news, he told me something like: “I didn’t ask your permission to be born the day before your 10th birthday, so I’m not going to ask your permission to be married on your 11th anniversary!”

The sun came out and got rid of all the ice on the roads, and our drives were safe and quick.
