I took these visiting teaching handouts to give to my sisters at church today. Does that count for visiting teaching?
A bookmark and handout about
Family History
I put a roast in the crockpot before we left for church. We also had family prayer with the boys, Alex, Joe, and Michael before we left. We got there a little late but I found a place in the front by Lane Hall and the Hunsakers. I told Lane I was impressed with the line drive he caught in a friendly game of softball last night at the party.
Tyler Hunsaker was the youth speaker today and Michael and Chris Brady were the main speakers in sacrament meeting today. Chris Brady leads the music in sacrament meeting so we see her every week but neither James nor I ever remember seeing Michael before. He says he has lived in Vernon or the area most all of his life. Interesting.
I was proud of the boys. They stayed for the entire block without complaining. Alex has become friends with Trenda and I think he and Michael wanted to see Maddie but I am not sure they got to. She isn't in their Sunday School class.
During Sunday School we had a lesson entitled, "Seek Learning Even by Study and Also by Faith." During the third hour the priesthood, Relief Society, young men and young women were all combined. Sister Klug, our ward family history consultant spoke about family tree and how to use it. It was quite good. Sister Klug was a Goodman before she got married.
After church our home teacher's Chuck Crane and Collin Dewitt come by for a visit. Since Chuck's wife Kathy is out of town we invited him over for dinner. The roast I put in the crockpot got a late start because I forgot to turn it on.
The boys were hungry after church so James cooked them some chicken on the grill. Alex liked it so much he ate at least eight pieces. He then went downstairs and took a long nap.
James went home teaching this afternoon. We he returned he helped me get dinner on the table. We had BBQ beef sandwiches, beans, coleslaw, corn on the cob and watermelon. It was fun to have Chuck over for dinner. He has helped us so much it was nice to be able to do something nice for him.
Visited Pasha Westbrook and took her a family history handout and bookmark. When I was visiting with Lannie Gillespie she said her foot is broken again and she is going to have to have surgery. Oh dear. This had been a problem for her since I have known her. It just won't get well.
