A few Photos....

Elder Swalberg sent his SD card home with the Christmas gifts that he gave us...  Here is a selected set of recent photos...

I think this was the first measurable snow.... see the message?

Elder Dahlberg and Swalberg on exchanges one day... and they baked something up!

The District he is currently serving with while in Damariscotta, ME.

 Elders Dahlberg & Swalberg... 

 Beautiful Maine... before the snow... 

 Haircut time... by his District Leader... kinda scary i would think.... 

 Mom sent him most of the ingredients for Cherry Cheese Pie for Thanksgiving... (note - dont need the salt in the background... )

 Sister Kuhn & her Primary Class sent a package... and Sis Kuhn knows Elder Swalberg well... she sent him a treat, just like when he was in her Sunday School class... a POMEGRANATE!

 His favorite thing to make with Pomegranate seeds... "sweet-tart oatmeal"  - oatmeal + mashed banana + pomegranate seeds... 

 Before they found an unused Christmas tree in the storage attic  at the church, this was their attempt at a Christmas tree in their apartment... green stocking cap and scarf wrapped around a hanger, bandana tree skirt - and a paper star colored with a highlighter!  The missionary Christmas spirit!

 Beautiful Maine... with snow... 

 His Companion Elder Dalley - facial hair keeps you warm in Maine... 

 The real Christmas tree that they put up in the apartment... surrounded by gifts and packages... 

 MORE SNOW>>>... They did a LOT of shoveling service.... could not use the cars...  

 Piasnow... sound is fairly muffled I guess... 

 Digging out cars....
