Dear Everybody!
First off...happy birthday to Joseph on the 26th! 11 years old; oh my goodness, how the time has flown by! We sure enjoyed having you here this summer and look forward to next year too!
Last night I went to the broadcast of the General Women's Conference. I can't wait to receive the magazine or to be able to download the talks online. Four very powerful talks; strong and sometimes blunt as well. I especially liked Sister Bonnie Oscarson's talk. I am eager to use them in future RS meetings and talks. Often some of my favorite talks come from the General Priesthood Conference; so I hope that you guys will take the opportunity to read or listen to these talks from the Women's Conference. They are not just for us girls!
Dad has been on a LONG trip and should be home by next weekend. I'm so glad that he was able to spend time with Ben, Lynsey and Joseph; that he got to take Brad and Andi to breakfast and that he will get to see Heidi, Kevin, Luke, Shelby, Dixie, Zach, Melanie, Calvin and Stella...but it will sure be good to have him home again!
We had rain all day Thursday and Friday, but Saturday was clear and nice...even a little warm. I made a few quarts of spaghetti sauce with my tomatoes and peppers and put them in the freezer. I think they turned out pretty well considering I've never made spaghetti sauce before!
I gave blood on Wednesday...they really like my O-negative! That evening the Stake RS secretary (Terri Thomas) and I went to Parker 2nd Ward's Enrichment night. I figured I'd know almost everyone, having lived so near that Ward for so long; but really there were only a few I did know! Sterling Wilford's wife, Amelia, is in the presidency and had given me the invitation. Then yesterday after work I did a session at the Temple. Karey Hanks always has names that need to be done. I saw a guy from work who I assumed was not a Temple goer...I should never assume. It was nice to see him there though; he's kind of hard to like at work and this somehow made me feel differently toward him.
I hope you've all had a good day; I love you bunches!
