I put two roasts in the crockpot with BBQ sauce this morning. 
Before we leave for church we have family prayer with everyone.  James and I sit in front by the Applegate's so James will have room for his walker and leg.  Sheri, Ian, Kim, Brian and the kids sit in the back.  James and I both bear our testimonies.  So do Shelly and Trenda.  James and I are fasting for Dallin today.

Brother John Wilhelm is called to the bishopric to fill the vacancy left by Wes Smith.  Wendy DeWitt gave the lesson again in Sunday School.  It was on the life and martyrdom of Joseph Smith.  I wish Kim and Sheri would have stayed.  Sandra Wilhelm taught about strengthening families in Young Women's. 

This afternoon James and I read our scriptures together and I read by myself.  I restarted the Book of Mormon for the 7th time this year.  We also took our nap.  After naptime Sheri, Evan and I start to go for a Razr ride but Sheri is too cold so we go back.  Evan wants to go to Greenspeak but when I tell him about the Falls he wants to go there.  James and I take a break from our Five Crowns game that we are playing with Kim and Sheri to take him.  The sad thing is that today the Falls were not running.  I think Evan was happy just to get to go on a ride.

This evening we had dual dinners.  Brian made honey line chicken and I made bbq beef.  We also had beans, macaroni and cheese, a salad, corn on the cob and watermelon.

We did not have FHE like James and I had talked about.

Some photos I took today of the gorgeous sky:

 

I should do a calendar.

When I got up this morning I see all four of Sheri's boys asleep on the couches.  Ben, Max, and Evan were in the family room and Alex in the living room.  All of the adults slept in.

I love the sunflowers!

 

James and I take the Razr and go into town to mail my prescription payment to Humana.  Evan comes with us.  It's a beautiful morning for a ride.  We see Sheri on her morning run on the way back.

When Sheri returned home, and after her shower, we went into town to get a few groceries.  We invited Kim to go with us but she said she would be going with Brian a little later.  After doing our shopping at Walmart I tried to order some green burros from LaCasita, bt could never get through.  Sheri stopped at Little Caeser's to get some pizza.  I got some wings for James and I.  We saw Bishop Hall and Lane.  I congratuledted bishop on being the Dad of a soon to be missionary.  Kendall got his mission call to Salta, Argentina.

James enjoyed the wings for lunch.  I didn't think they were that great.

Sheri took this picture today.  A walker standing outside by itself is never a good sign.  He must be on the Razr.

 

Kim tells us about how the teacher she has been teaching with quit because she was being harrassed by the curriculum director and the owner of Bright Beginnings.  Even though she had some issues Kim says she was a nice person and the kids loved her.  The acting principal of the school, Jennifer Jackman, is going to fill in until they find someone to hire.

James, Kim and I took a ride to see the falls near Buckelew Springs.  Sheri was sleeping upstairs so she missed the fun.

About 3 miles from our house

Brian fixed hamburgers for dinner and Sheri and I fixed pancakes and ham.  Ben was disappointed because they weren't my homemade pancakes.  I told him that the next time he came up I would fix them for him.  

After dinner we played Five Crowns and after Kim went to bed Sheri, James, and I watched Cedar Cove.

Dark skies and green go together.
