"The heavens are just as open to women who are endowed with God's power flowing from their priesthood covenants as they are to men who bear the priesthood. I pray that truth will register upon each of your hearts because I believe it will change your life. Sisters, you have the right to draw liberally upon the Savior's power to help your family and others you love."
I was up at 4:30 this morning. After my morning devotional I made banana bread for the Finnell's and the Westbrook's.
James went with me to deliver Christmas gifts today. We delivered calenders to the Applegate's. I got to see Shelly! The Wilhelm's, the Halcomb's, the Thompson's, and the Grapp's. We went to the post office and mailed Ben's calender and Christmas cards. We stopped at Dave and Rosa Westbrook's. I ordered some tamales from Rosa and I had a card and some banana nut bread for them. Dave is James's Sunday School teaching companion and his ministering companion. We also go to see Marci Butler Westbrook while we were there and visit with her a few minutes.
When we were at the Halcomb's Kerri's truck was loaded like Santa's sleigh. They are leaving early in the morning for their family Christmas party in the valley. Kerri was watching seven of the Judd children as she does every week, usually on Friday but she's going to be gone tomorrow.
After delivering the bread at the Finnell's we were going to go into town to get some batting for the Christmas pillows I ordered except that James got a call from Debbie Miller saying the guys were at our house with a new motor for the furnace. They came this morning and looked at the one James put in and said it was off- balance. Matt took it out and discovered it wasn't working correctly so he went to get another one at Hughes Electric in Lakeside. We hurried home to meet them because we really want our furnace fixed. We were half way to Lakeside when we were at the Finnell's. They live by the Wallace's and have a Lakeside address.
Hughes wouldn't take the motor back that James drilled holes in. Matt installed the new motor and he saw it was the wrong amp power so it wouldn't heat our house properly. He took it out and said he would be back tomorrow with a new one. So much trouble.
James got some steps in and I blogged while we were waiting for Matt. Afterwards we went in to Walmart where we got batting and stuff for tomorrow's stew. James has been so sweet today and given me so much of his time.
When we got home I made another loaf of banana bread because I was a loaf short if I'm taking some to Dennis and Harold.
I also wrapped calendars for Anthony, Dave and Laura, and Cathi and Terry.
We watched these Christmas movies:
"Merry Liddle Christmas"
"Radio Christmas"
and the
Churches
New Nativity video
I took a nativity set to the Grapp kids
They were so excited because they
didn't have one.
Tildy, Emsley, Benson, Liana and Bandit
Leland playing with the box.
I will bring him a little book set
of the First Christmas, just his size,
tomorrow.
James helped me "stuff" my Christmas pillows
I didn't even know Lichtenstein was a
real country.
