"Preparing for the Second Coming of Christ"
Elder Christoffel Golden
Of the Seventy
"The Second Coming will be a fearful, mournful time for the wicked, but it will be a day of peace for the righteous. The Lord declared:
"They that are wise and have received the truth, and have taken the Holy Spirit for their guide, and have not been deceived - verily I say unto you, they shall not be hewn down and cast into the fire, but shall abide the day."
Ginger
1 Nephi 2:16 - 3:8 & Abraham:10:11

Slept in until 7. How shameful on a day I should be working at the temple. Happy Birthday Trina. When I talked to her she said she was going to watch Addy cross the finish line in her half marathon race. Way to go Addy!




Happy Birthday Trina!

James brought me what he called a "healthy" breakfast after the piece of pie I brought myself. Oatmeal and toast is more healthy than pie. 

James and I talked about it and decided we were going to "celebrate" valentine's day today instead of Monday. We aren't really party people so our celebrating looks pretty lame or normal. I went online and downloaded the Dickey's BBQ app and ordered a 2 for $24 special. 4 types of meat, 4 sides, two breads, and four sauces. The total cost was $26.61 which seems like a good deal for the food that we got. We picked up our food at 11:30 and drove over to the Lakeside stake center parking lot to eat. There were tables but we just ate in the car. We liked the baked potato mix, the green beans and the coleslaw. James didn't like the roll but I did. Of course. The brisket burnt ends were good and so were the pork burnt ends. We saved some of the meat for later. When we were finished eating we decided to drive up the 260 to Eagar and Springerville and make the circle home down the 60. The McDonald's in Springerville never has any ice cream so we went to Sonic. Dairy Queen line was way too long.
We had a nice drive. It was a beautiful day. We did not see any wildlife but that's okay. It was a relaxing way to spend the early afternoon.

I have been waiting since The Bridal Veil Trilogy was first advertised to see the second edition starring Autumn Reeser. It is on tonight and it is what I want to watch for our Valentine's celebration. It is a story about love. Whoever possesses the veil finds true love. I ask James what he wanted to do and he was fine with watching the movie with me. 

We walked and read before the movie came on so we could give our entire focus to the movie. Sometimes I walk while watching movies but not this one. The movie was filmed entirely in Italy and Bulgaria and Autumn said all of her co-stars were Italian. She said it was the most magical project she has ever worked on. 

I loved the movie! Was it realistic? No, not really, but who cares. I loved Autumn and her wardrobe. For a young actress she has a classiness about her. James liked the movie too. There is one more movie in the trilogy and it will air next week starring Allison Sweeney and Victor Webster. I like Victor Webster.
