Hi everyone,
Well this week flew by... Dad is home! He got home yesterday and it's wonderful to have him back. This afternoon he went to the office for a while, having not been there in 10 days; and then he has a Stake Priesthood meeting at 6 this evening.
Tuesday evening Teresa Anderson and I made the birthday visits for June; they were wonderful as always. Our first year as a presidency we took each sister a cupcake. This year we are taking small bottles of spice mix that we mixed together. We made 120 of them last month in Peggy's kitchen, and have them all ready in the RS closet. We just add a small card with the sisters name on it, and visit them at home. We usually have 8-10 visits each month, so it takes about 2-3 hours the first Tuesday evening. One other member of the presidency goes with me each month.
It's been really hot here all week, until yesterday during the Relay for Life, when of course it turned off cold, windy and rainy. They still had a fairly good turnout. Jocie and Janie work so hard on that each year. I was there to support them, as well as to man the hospital booth, giving away free stuff: small first aid kits, cell phone screen cleaners, bottles of water, etc...
Then last night, Dad and I went to the Search and Rescue dinner. It was also very nice...and indoor! Good food, and nice people to visit with. They appreciate your dad.
Friday night, Gran, Grandma and I had a movie night. We ate pizza, watched Cheaper By the Dozen (1950 version), and had ice cream sundae's. It was a nice evening! Grandma had never seen that version of the movie, and she LOVED it!
I am going to forward an email Dad shared with me the other day. I can't figure out how to include it in this email; so it will come right behind it! http://www.naco.org/articles/profiles-service-may-30-2016
I'm also including a picture of myself wearing my new necklace, made for me by Naomi. Thank you, Naomi, I love it! :)
The other picture is of a little wreath I made at relief society on Wednesday. They had plenty of extra supplies, so I was able to make another one for one of my less active visiting teaching sisters. Dixie, I think it would look nice with the patriotic decorations you made!
Love you all, I hope it's a great week! Thank you Aimee, for the email and pictures...loved it all!
