It started out to be a beautiful morning.
It got even better when we went to the Snowflake
temple.
James and I attended the 8 am endowment session. Our friend from our ward, Blain Curtis was the officiator of our session. I was proud of James for going even though he could only whisper and could not hear very well.
After the session James left to go home. I stayed and waited for our ward youth to come for baptisms. I had to wait almost an hour so I sat in the chapel and read from the hymn book.
We had a small group today, only three young women: Shelly, Alice, and Hailey, and three young men: Ty, Jace, and Andy. There were five priesthood leaders: Wes Smith, Bishop Miller, Kip Hunsaker, Jimmy Applegate, and Rick Lauritzen. There are supposed to be seven so we were two short. James had been ask to go but because he couldn't talk or hear, he declined. There were three women leaders: Diana Curtis, Tamara Applegate, and myself. I got to hand towels to the youth as they came out of the baptismal font. I really do love these young women:
Alice, Hailey, and Shelly.
They are so cute and fun!
After the temple the entire group went to El Cupido's for lunch. Even though it was lunch time, I had my breakfast burrito with bacon. It was yummy!
Alice, Hailey, Diana Curtis and I rode home with the bishop. It was so fun to get to visit with my friend Diana again. We get along so well.
As we were coming in to Vernon I mentioned that I hadn't seen the antelope that usually graze in the field by the Vernon turn off for awhile. Just as we came around the corner into Vernon, bishop pointed out a herd.

"Amazed by Grace"
by Sheri Dew.
Before doing anything else I had to lay down and take a nap. James joined me. I also had to call Debbie Miller and have her ask Ed if he would teach Gospel Doctrine tomorrow because James has no voice.
My intention was to spend the rest of the day working on my Primary lesson, which I did for awhile until James came in and ask when we were going to watch our movie. I just can't turn him down. We watched the new Hallmark movie, "Tulips in Spring."
Lots going on in our family this weekend. Alex and Tre, who was the prom queen at Chandler High, and also happens to be in Alex's seminary class, went to Mormon Prom together.
Such a cute couple!
Emmy was in a soccer tournament. All the other teams were boys. They got 2nd place and Emmy plays defender and did really well.

Jared and James went to their Fathers & Sons Outing. Here are a few pictures that Jared sent me.
I remember that apple head guy from years past.
Love that smile!
Is that smoke in the background?
Do they do prescribed burns?
James sees something.
