An Amazing Christmas 2010

 This was one amazing Christmas!   Jeff and Lindsey worked so diligently getting this incredible book ready for dad for Christmas.  In it they put Grandpa Hill's history of the first world war.  They had to literally translate grandpa's hand writting as it was so difficult to read.  They also did tons of research on the internet to get the names of the places etc. where grandpa fought and was transferred to during the war.  Then each of the 5 Hill children received a copy with an interview of grandpa talking on 3 separate DVD's in the back of the book. I had recorded this interview with grandpa some 35 years ago on tape.  What a treasure this is for each of us, but especially for Bill.  
Thanks so much Lindsey and Jeff!!

 Mark put this wonderful book together with the temple on front
and our Family Mission Statement on the back.  It's filled with talks that many of our family members have given over the years. Even the children have their talks included.  What an awesome treasure this is.  When we give talks ....for sure the person writing the talk puts in their deep personal thoughts and testimonies.
Thanks Mark for this Amazing Treasure!  Each of our families received their own personal copy.

HILL FAMILY MISSION STATEMENT
We the members of the Hill Family, endorse the principles outlined in the Proclamation on the Family. We will use our individual agencies in accordance with the principles of the Gospel. We will be loyal, united in our support for one another, and loathe to criticize.  Indeed we will practice the principle of Family Solidarity, such that no one ever feels isolated from the rest of the family. Our common goal is to be an eternal family and we will live our lives in such a manner that we can fulfill the potential within us such that we can claim that benefit.

Thanks to Karri we got another lovely calendar to keep us on top of special birthdays and family celebrations.  It just warms my heart to look at all the fun memories.
Right now it's on our frig with 2 strong magnets in place so it will hold on TIGHT and not slide .
Karri sent calendars to all of our family members.



We just love it Karri!
