Elder Ulisses Soares
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
As disciples of the Prince of Peace, we have been instructed to live with "hearts knit together in unity and in love one towards another." Our beloved prophet, President Russell M. Nelson, recently stated, "Contention violates everything the Savior stood for and taught." Our prophet also implored that we do all we can to end personal conflicts that are currently raging in our hearts in in our lives.
James went to help Brother Hipps this morning to put a roof on his garage. James took his Cat over and showed Brother Hipps and his son-in-law how to put the pieces of the roof up.
While James was helping the Hipps' I was on my way to Show Low to Scotlyn MacArthur's T-ball game. I left around 8:30 and Chelsea passed me on the way. We got there about the same time. The game was at the Nicholas Homestead Park. Chelsea's in-laws were there too.
Jarred's mom, Stacy MacArthur came over and sat by me and introduced herself to me. She was very friendly and it put me right at ease. We enjoyed each other's company during the game. When I told her I was Dennis and Harold Maxwell's sister she was so excited. She mentioned that they coached Jarred and Trevor, her younger son, in football. She said that she loved Dennis and Denise and missed seeing them. She wanted to make sure that I told them hello for her.
They quit the game a little early so the team could go to the Mountain Meadows park in Lakeside to get pictures taken. Chelsea had just gotten back from Mountain Meadows and now she had to go back again. It's at least ten miles away.

As I left I turned to Stacy MacArthur and told her I appreciated her being so friendly. I told Mike MacArthur it was nice to meet him too.
I stopped at Walmart on the way home to do a little shopping and to pick up my prescriptions. On the way out I order a Carl's Jr. burger with no cheese. It cost me $7.45 and was not worth it. Meh. Way too much mayo. Since when is a hamburger over $7.00. Next time I will order a Santa Fe chicken sandwich.
James was back from the Hipps' when I got home. We both took a quick nap and then got ready to go to the Scott's 60th anniversary party at the church.
The church parking lot was almost full. When we walked in I was surprised to see a food table set up with lots of main dishes. I thought there would only be cake and felt a little uncomfortable that I had not brought anything to share. James and I filled out plates and sat by Lorraine Vaught and Holly Gordon. Kathy Crane told me to have one of her chocolate covered strawberries. James and I each had one. These were much bigger than the ones she made for our ministering sisters.
Amber Judd gave me a big hug when I went over to talk to the Scott's. She loves Millie and considers her as her grandmother. Millie is a sweetheart and everyone loves her. When I gave her a hug she said, "I want to be just like you when I grow up."
When we came into the cultural hall we were asked to fill out a memory of the Scott's. Here is what I wrote:
When the Howard's passed away I called their daughter Deana and asked if I could bring them dinner. She said, "Oh Millie Scott has been bringing us dinner every night." That's the way Millie is. She loves doing things for people and one dinner would not be enough.
I added that the Scott's were some of the nicest people I had ever known.
When we returned home I worked on my blog, walked and worked on the cupcake puzzle. I watched the newest Hallmark movie, "Love in Zion National" starring Cindy Busby. I liked it but James reminded me that they took a lot of liberties. I reminded him that it was only a movie, not a documentary. Now I want to go to Zion's, but not in the summer time when it is hot.
I finished my book, "A Heart Worth Stealing" by Joanna Barker. I really liked it. James and I walked and listened to "What Dreams May Come" by Dana LaCheminant.
