April General Conference

Listened to "Follow Him" where Jennifer Platt was the guest. She was so good!

 Harry Apollo, or Apollo Harry, whichever you prefer, is here! Brother Peralta delivered him this morning. Harry was put into the corral until he gets used to this being his home. Luna was right there getting to know him. As soon as James took Harry Apollo out, he and Luna ran off. Yes, Luna opened the gate and off they went. James went after them and brought them back with a bucket of grain.

Back in the corral Harry went.

Tonight our Bunco group met at Cheryl Sedig's. My Sensual Amber body cream hasn't arrived yet so I had to come up with another gift. I put some Bath & Body liquid soap in a gift bag along with a bag of Cadbury mini-eggs and that was my gift. Now, for my snack. I am making Kim's Cadbury mini-egg brownies which are the best brownies I have ever eaten. I should have used the candle I bought this week but I forgot and I already used it in my candle warmer.

I spent a good part of the afternoon making brownies. James and I both had a sample brownie and they are mighty delicious!

I left a little before 5:30 to pick up the Hunsaker twins, Alicia, our bishop's wife, and her sister Stefani. We arrived at Cheryl's right at 6:00. We had a little to eat before starting the game. 

Lynda Finnell brought huge stuffed mushrooms and they were a big hit. She actually called John, her husband, to bring us some more, which he did. 

This was my most fun Bunco night so far. There was less stress about going fast and the atmosphere was more relaxed. I was at the losers table with Becky Skousen and Stefani Hunsaker and Tina Allen.

Stefani has a unique way of rolling and she got several good rolls in a row. Becky was determined she was going to copy her and she did it with a flair. It made us all laugh so loud. 

I missed my friend Pat Tedder tonight. She wasn't feeling well so she didn't come. Michelle Beckham took her place. The gift I got was homemade strawberry jam made by Pat and a cute succulent plant.

Back at home I walked with James as we listened to "Trespassers."

Tom stayed in tonight, which made me happy.

"Today I would like to begin by testifying of the complete certainty within my heart that God hears our prayers and answers them in a personalized way."
