Happy Sunday!

This last week has been so laid back.. wow! We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We spent it with some wonderful friends. Thank you Jeannette, Ron and kiddos for letting us share a meal with you. Kennen and I went "black Friday" shopping and had a great time and got everything we needed, it was AWESOME!!!

School is going really well. I am so so so excited. Robbie is doing well, his test scores are coming back from CLASS with super high scores. Sid is beginning reading which is AMAZING since a month ago he didn't know the letters. I am so proud of the accomplishments and steps they are making. I love watching their eyes light up and them so excited when they get a new concept. I love my boys they are so much fun to be with.

OH!! we got an inversion table. It is wonderful, I love it.... It makes my back feel wonderful.

That is our week.. not too much to report. We are not very exciting in the winter months. It is way too cold to be outside. We hope you are all doing well. We love you all.

Spiritually Fed Wednesday

Today, I am going to just say.. Happy Thanksgiving!!

I just want you also to know how much I am thankful for each and everyone of you. I am thankful for the gospel, I am thankful for my wonderful husband, I am thankful for the 2 boys we have. I am thankful for good health and a warm house. (this morning with windchill it is -22) I am thankful for the opportunity I have to be a mom, wife, friend, sister, daughter, etc.. I love every minute I have with my boys and teaching them and watching them grow. I am thankful for the pioneers and for all the endured for us. I am thankful for so many things, I am truly blessed.

I love you all and hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and that you all are safe and warm.

Spiritually Fed Wednesday

For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have love you, that ye also love one another. John 13:15, 34


I AM TRYING TO BE LIKE JESUS

I'm trying to be like Jesus; I'm following in his ways. I'm trying to love as he did, in all that I do and say. At times I am tempted to make a wrong choice, But I try to listen as the still small voice whispers, "Love one another as Jesus loves you. Try to show kindness in all that you do. Be gentle and loving in deed and in thought, For these are the things Jesus taught."

I'm trying to love my neighbor, I'm learning to serve my friends. I watch for the day of gladness when Jesus will come again. I try to remember the lessons he taught, Then the Holy Spirit enters into my thoughts, saying: "Love one another as Jesus love you. Try to show kindness in all that you do. Be gentle and loving in deed and in thought, For these are the things Jesus taught."

slacking....

It has been awhile. I am so very sorry. We just plug along with school and life and the next thing I know it has been weeks since I updated on here. Apparently not much has happened. We did get visitors, Chris (Kennen's brother) and his girlfriend came up to visit us so we could meet her. Jessica is welcome back anytime. We really liked her and the boys also. (which it is hard to win Robbie over) We can't wait to see them again at the Christmas party. While they were here we just hung out, ate, went up the canyon. I have some fun pictures I will try and post.

This last week we haven't done a thing, we hang out downstairs with the fire and try to stay warm. It has snowed twice and the weather is very cold. I think I am already for summer to come back. We did go on a field trip which was way cool. The boys got to go behind the scenes at the Tate. They got to hold a real dinosaur bone and help with the dinosaur they were working on. It was super cool.

Today we are also going on a field trip to see the Nations Christmas Tree. It is the very first one out of Wyoming. A couple of weeks ago they made ornaments for it in art class, so now to tie it to the tree will be fun. So pictures to come on that.

I had a wonderful birthday, thank you for all those that made it special. I can't believe I am 36.. Yikes! where has the time gone?

Hope this finds you all well. Love you all!

Thank you for all who have served us!
