Missed a few days for Lacy. Sorry days have been busy, hope you are having fun. I hear there is snow up there is that really true? If so wow wish it was cooler here we are still having 95 degree weather. Bring it home with you ok. Time is flying by. Hard to believe that October is almost gone. My garden is being eaten not by our family but by the crickets. Any one have a remedey for it please let me know. Sunday was Visiting teaching conference. I have to admit I am not one to get totaly involved in that. The thought of women popping over to my house that us 8 of 10 times a total mess is enough to send me into a panic attack. I often catch my self excusing my mess and then they say so sweetly "oh it is ok". I work alot (not more than anyone else I know) but having to make time is hard. But after this sunday I am going to try and be better. Here is the cutest movie that we watched it is a link I couldn't get it to just post on my blog.

GOTTA LOVES MY BOYS!
Yesterday was fast sunday, and our Bishop encouraged those who haven't given their testimony in a while to do so. And to my suprise my youngest son Nikolas whispered into my ear "mom I think I want to go up there". I told him that he could when ever he wanted to. He then told me that he would wait till next sunday. But then all of a sudden my other son Nathan stood up to go, Nikolas followed behind him. And then it happened both of my sons gave their testimonies. I cried and Aaron cried too. Wow every time you think your children aren't listening they shock ya! Our stake is encourging us to be more provident (i think that is how you spell it) The first month was to stock up on H2O, last month was to start square foot gardens. Which we all are very excited about doing today we worked and worked on them. (pictures to come soon) And this month is Lay up and Store....for those of you who know church lingo lol it is food storage. Yup thats right we are now to work on 3 months of food. If any of you have any suggestions that would be great. Cause the way my children eat I will need a year supply for the 3 months. lol Thanks so much.

What a weekend!!
This weekend was the best. First I got friday off from work(thank you thank you Steven!!) And then I got to watch conference. I watched both saturdays and the last one on sunday. I missed the am sunday morning, stupid throwing papers. Any way WOW another 5 temples! How exciting. I loved going on temple trips when I was in Young Womens. Saving up, pla
nning, and then the 8 hours of driving to Washington DC. All worth the wonderful experience I got when being in that special place. Hearing from the prophet was so special. My kids were in and out listening and not listening but when President Monson spoke at the close it was like they were transfixed and actually were taking in the great and wise words. I loved the theme of saturday morning of missionary work. At least that was how I took it. Bring everyone to the gospel, even thoses who have strayed and the importance of not judging them. I have to admit I have had that happen. It is hard to over come when people look at you and see you one way and cant move on from it. And
when you do try to be better they hold on to the old person and keep judging you. Acting surprised that you even had a righteous moment like that is not even possible for you. We are all children of our Heavenly Father and no matter where we stand in line to come back to him AT LEAST I AM STANDING IN THE LINE!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this church and all that it stands for. I am glad beyond a doubt to know what I know. That no matter where I live I have that to go to and it is the same everywhere. How great it is to have faith in something bigger than we are in this world. I loved the statement by Brother Nelson that "salvation is an indiviual matter but exaltation is a family matter" how true. With out them I would be lost. ok ok ok I need to climb down off my box ( i think i just had a testimony moment) takecareyou all hope you enjoyed this weekend too like me! xoxoxo
