cold has finally come

While lots of leaves around us turn pretty colors in the fall, the leaves on this tree in our backyard turn grey.

Grey with a hint of yellow-greenish.

And there are plenty of leaves for us to rake up until the bitter cold hits.

And I'm sad to say that the bitter cold has finally hit.

But it makes for cute pictures of bundled up kids.

And my kids love playing in the snow, so I can't complain too much.

Here we are in Idaho Falls on the temple grounds. I wanted to get some pictures for something.

And, of course, I couldn't help taking pictures of my family too.

I hope it's not always bitter cold though...
