He Could Heal Me!

Elder Peter F. Meurs

Of the Seventy

"My father particularly loved the account of the Savior's visit to the people of Nephi. This sacred account is of the resurrected and exalted Lord Jesus Christ. He had drunk of the bitter cup and suffered all things so that we would not suffer if we would repent. He had visited the spirit world and organized the preaching of the gospel there. He had risen from the dead, and He had been with and received commandments from the Father to share scriptures with the Nephites that would bless future generations. He was exalted and had all of His eternal power and capacity."

 I didn't get up until 7 this morning. What's with that?

Kim and Brian are getting ready to leave. James went to work early and then returned and told Brian he had a flat tire on his Bronco. Kim says they don't have a jack to change the tire and she tells Brian that should be a priority.

Dad uses the compressor to fill the tire, then comes in the house and asks me to borrow the Rubber Cement. I guess it worked because they made it home safely. They did miss their one o'clock appointment though.

Love these two!

Kim gave me a card before she left and told me not to open it until Mother's Day. I hope I can resist opening it until then.

I did some vacuuming and dusting and worked on putting the pieces in my Childhood Stories puzzle. 

At 2:00 my ministering sisters, Donna Peeler and Stefani Hunsaker came for a visit. They looked at my puzzle, we talked about it for a few minutes and then we went in to sit down. It's funny how we always sit in the same places when they come. We talked about family and then the topic of Barbara Bartels wedding came up. I guess she wants carrot cake. Stefani asked me if I had ever baked a carrot cake and I told her I had for Cammy Grapp's birthday a couple of years ago.

After Donna and Stefani left, they brought me "popcorn, popping on the apricot tree", James and I went to town.

On the way to town we listened to "Coming Home to Bellingham."

James dropped me off at Walgreen's while he went to Home Depot. 

I wanted to get an Amazon card for Lois for Mother's Day. Walmart doesn't have Amazon cards. I picked up a $50 card and ended up spending $93. 

Before going home James and I drove over to Lakeside to see what I am calling the Hamblin mansion. Here is picture:

I wonder how many children they have

I did not feel well this evening. I had beets and toast for dinner. 

James and I did some walking before going to bed.

Brian got me these flowers for

Mother's Day 2015

I love them

I love the color of the frosting on this cake

So sad that there is a piece missing. I emailed the company.

Let's see if they send me a new one.
