Field of Sunflowers in Vernon

I am enjoying the daily gospel quotes that Sheri sends me.  Here is today's:

"For verily I say unto you, blessed is he that

keepeth my commandments, whether in life

or in death; and he that is faithful in

tribulation, the reward of the same is

greater in the kingdom of heaven.

Ye cannot behold with your natural eyes, for the present time,

the design of your God concerning those things which shall come hereafter, and the glory which shall follow after much tribulation.

D&C 58:2-3

I love this!  It makes me want to keep trying when I want to give up.

Just a random picture I found on

Facebook

 

Today was spent at the cabin.  I was able to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery and weather.  James wanted to take a Razr ride and place his wildlife cabin but first he needed to go to Stanford and get some gas.  I went with him so we could read from our book, "The Silent Governess." We went down AC3144 so we could take a picture of the sunflower field, which I posted on Facebook.

 As we continued on our way down highway 60 James threw his arms up and yelled.  It scared me to death.  Come to find out he had forgotten to bring the gas can so we had to turn around and go back.  Oh well, we don't really have any schedule to keep today,  but it makes him angry to be so forgetful.

What a great idea!

 



I don't want to go back to the valley and neither does James but I have a dental appointment tomorrow that I made in January and I hate to break.  James also needs to get back to buy a new tire and wheel and to check on his job. 

We watched a couple of Hallmark movies before going to bed.

This is my very favorite picture of my grandson

Jared Ammon.  Here he is about two years old.

He loved books and he loved playing on the computer.

He was such a smart little boy.

This is Jared Ammon today.  He went camping with some

friends this weekend. I don't know where they cowboy hat came from.  I have never seen it before, but my dad would be proud.

I realized about an hour before church that I had prepared the wrong Primary lesson.  I had prepared the lesson on Jesus' resurrection and realized I was suppose to prepare the lesson on the Crucifixion and the Burial.  James said to go ahead and give the lesson on the resurrection today and give the crucifixion lesson next week.  I said I couldn't do that because I would out of sequence and too confusing.  I did some last minute preparation for the lesson on the crucifixion and the burial.

This afternoon we finished the book "The Apothecary's Daughter" and started "The Silent Governess."

James didn't like the last book so he is hoping this one is better.

Kathy Crane invited us for dinner this evening.  George and Ruth Wallace were there also.  Kathy fixed Café Rio sweet pork, cilantro rice, refried beans and salad with the Café Rio dressing.  Everything was delicious and then we had brownies for dessert.  Yummy!



  I know this picture is blurry but I had to post it.

We love the Cranes!  They are such wonderful neighbors!
