This tree has three large black ravens in it.

It looks like something out of an Edgar Allen Poe novel.

"the Holy Ghost is the messenger of grace by which the blood of Christ is applied to take away our sins and sanctify us."

-Elder D. Todd Christofferson

The Heyman's were released from their mission in Argentina yesterday where he has been the mission president.  They will be returning home to Chandler on Thursday. 

I filled up 100 water balloons today and carried them to the back of my car.  We are playing water balloon volleyball at Mutual tonight.

The fire is pretty much over now except for the cleanup.  The town of Vernon is helping to fill sandbags for people to use in case of flooding.  We are grateful for the rain but we are also a little apprehensive.

I had YW presidency meeting tonight with Diana Curtis and Analee Hunsaker.  I gave the above quote by Elder Christofferson as my spiritual thought.  

We had a poor turnout for Mutual but those who came had alot of fun.  Tyler Hunsaker was the only young man.  We had Alice Wilhelm, LeeAnn Hunsaker and Maddie Carroll come.  Leaders were Diana, Analee, Collin DeWitt and myself.  

 Oops Maddie, those shorts are a little short.

The sky was absolutely gorgeous tonight.

Water fight after water balloon volleyball.

The sky almost looked unreal is was so beautiful.

LeeAnn is a real target in that red jacket.

Diana, Analee, Stefani Hunsaker, and Collin DeWitt.

A gorgeous night to be outside.

LeeAnn Hunsaker made me a candle and gave it to me tonight.  She said she was grateful for all the handouts I have made over the last two years.  

In the way of family news James finished laying the tile in the bathroom in Chandler.  Now he has to wait and grout it after it sets for a few hours.  Trina called and said she was going to be induced on Friday, July 4th.  That means I will be going down probably tomorrow.
