 Hi everybody,

   Not much to say tonight. I just got back from the Devotional for the beginning of the next twelve Self Reliance classes.  We didn't have quite as big a turnout as the other two times, but enough for 4 groups of 6-12 people. I'm sure it will be just as wonderful and life changing as the others have been. It's such an inspired program.
   Dad has had some trouble with his right knee; he had an MRI on Friday and will see the doctor tomorrow to see what he thinks he can do to help. I hope he can help! 
   I have submitted two job applications this week and I have a phone interview for one on Tuesday afternoon at 3. I'll just let my boss know I have an appointment and will drive over by the park and find a shady spot for however long it takes. That one is for a company called Ameriben, where I would be doing insurance utilization reviews. The other job I've applied for is for the State of Idaho, it's for a position called Health Facility Surveyor. It sounds interesting, but would mean a lot of time on the road, all over Eastern Idaho.   Who knows what will happen, but I'll keep you all posted!
   I know that some of you have already started back to school for the new school year, some will start tomorrow, and others later on.  It's always an exciting time. Please know how special and loved you are; each one of you are in our prayers. If there is something you are concerned about, please let us know if you want to. It's good to know these things so we can be more specific in our prayers for you.
   Love you all!
Mom/Johanna/Nana

Happy Easter Sunday to you all!     Conference has been wonderful, as usual. I hope that you will have the chance to watch or read the talks, if you didn't get to hear them today. I often find myself thinking of many of you as I listen to the talks. Today was no different. And especially you, Ben, when Bishop Causse, told that his family hadn't been to the Eiffel Tower, even after living near it for 20 years!  What things do we live near, that others would travel far to see? And more to his point, what blessings or opportunities do we have, that others only dream of?    Yesterday, Grandpa told us about a dream he had...at least I think it was a dream. He sometimes seems confused, but when I mentioned that he might feel confused, he said "I feel like I'm in a daze." Anyhow, he said that he was "greeting the men, as they came into the coffee shop." Then the next thing he knew, he was telling them that it was time for conference, and that "we all ...

Dear everybody,    First of all...Happy birthday, Ellen!  Grandpa and I were camping in Island Park, and didn't get you called!  We hope you had a wonderful day.  12 years old!  Oh, my goodness, that's hard to believe!    It seems that many of you are away from home right now, or just were, or are about to be... :) I haven't kept track of everyones plans, but I look forward to hearing all about this weeks activities!     Dad and I had planned to leave for our camping trip on Thursday afternoon, but a couple of other things made us put it off until Friday morning. Dad went to the debriefing meeting for the Emergency Communications drill we were involved in last Saturday. It was at the Stake Center about a mile east of the Rexburg Temple.  And I went to a viewing for Imelda Vargas. Below is a picture of her and her mother, Rosa, which was taken several years ago. Imelda was 40, and had an aneurysm in her brain, quite unexpecte...

  Hello everyone!    Well, 10% of our family had a birthday on Thursday, so that's a pretty big deal, I think! Ben, Bradley, and Leona, we hope that each one of you had a wonderful birthday!     We enjoyed having Shelby here so much, but the week went by too quickly. Grandpa, Gran and I each enjoyed our time with her.  On Saturday (a week ago), she and I went to a matinee and then had lunch with Beth and Hannah and did some shopping. Then Sunday afternoon, Shelby and I met her folks and Lucas in Twin Falls so she could go home. Grandpa wasn't able to come with us as he had planned because of the big fire in Fremont and Clark Counties. But it's finally out now.     A follow-up on my letter from a couple of weeks ago; Grandpa, Shelby, and I had started watching White Fang, but it was pretty upsetting in a few places and we decided to turn it off. Just a warning for more sensitive viewers.      LaRue Hunter Nelson (Dr. Milton...
