I got up at 4:54. If feels so good to feel good! Thank goodness for Prednisone. After prayer, Book of Mormon, and "Come Follow Me", James went to work at the Cranes' pump house. He has guys coming to help frame tomorrow, Collin DeWitt, who is the Crane's ministering brother, Chris Pronger, and Paul Peeler.

When James came home for lunch I already had something prepared. I fixed a ham, cabbage, and onion dish. He came in to the bedroom and said, "Thank you for the nice lunch." I was listening to a webinar, "Building Wealth Together" that Stacy had asked me to listen to. Stacy's friend, Leland, did the webinar. He mentioned her and used her as an example of someone who has made money selling notes. Now I have to decide if I am going to help her with her business. I need to pray about it before I talk to her.

James took a nap with Tom, the it was back to work unto about 3:45.

Tom is spoiled

James took a shower and we left for the Grombach's at 4:30. We are going to the Hon-Dah Casino for crabby Friday. It's all you can eat crab and James loves crab. 

While driving to the casino I got a text from Jared Ammon. This is what it said: "I want to move up and help out. I'm not happy in Phoenix." My response: We are out to dinner with friends. I will text you tomorrow. I am sorry you are not happy."

Janna and I had a nice visit about her mom on the way to the casino. I now have some ideas as to what I can do to serve her better as her ministering sister. 

Willy signed us in at the Indian Pine restaurant. They said the wait would be about 25 minutes. It was more like an hour and 25 minutes. 

The buffet offers prime rib, shrimp, crab, fish, veggie casserole, salad and clam chowder. I got prime rib and it was ok. It was the end of the rib and was a little tough. My salad was good because of the dried cranberries I put on it. Willy loved the clam chowder. James said the crab was cold and rubbery. Janna said it is better if you come in the winter when it's not so crowded. I would also leave at 4 instead of 4:30 so we could be there when the restaurant opens, if we ever go back. 

On the way home we took the short cut by the Wallace's and Janna & Willy showed us where Bridgett Jordan's camp facilities are. She has named her place CTR Camp. She had a nice lodge but we didn't go inside because it looked like people were camped there. Later Bridgett told me we should have come in because she was there and she would have shown us around. 

After saying goodbye and taking the Grombach's home, whom we love by the way, James stopped at Bob Hipps' to borrow a nail gun for tomorrow. We offered to pay for the Grombach's dinner but they would not let us. Our meal, after a $5 tip was $61. 

When we got home I blogged and James walked. Tom was in all night.

D&C 68:25

And again, inasmuch as parents have children in Zion, or in any of her stakes which are organized, that teach them not to understand the doctrine of repentance, faith in Christ the Son of the living God, and of baptism and the gift of the Holy Ghost by the laying of of the hands, when 8 years old, the sin be upon the heads of the parents.
