I got up early to catch up on my scripture reading.  I always get behind when we go to the valley.  I am also very behind on my blog/journal.  I posted for August 12th and 13th today.  I guess I got behind while James was in the hospital.

Kathy Crane called this morning and invited me to ride with her to the Relief Society Broadcast and dinner in Show Low.  I told her thank you but I had been gone the last couple of days and I just wanted to stay home and watch it.

I also watched Project Runway.  I was so happy when James sat down and watched the runway show with me.  The two redheads, Kate and Alexander, go home.

James and I rode the Razr to the post office.  One the way home James had to try and call up some elk.
 Elk made the weirdest sound!
Speaking of elk, Talon Wilhelm got his elk this week.  Talon and his Dad, John.

 I am feeling anxious about my family right now.  Some of my children and grand children are struggling to live the gospel.  James and I pray for them on a daily basis.

One of my "projects" for the day was to get the dried mud off of our driveway.  This is what it looked like before I began.
James finished the project for me so I could watch the Relief Society Broadcast.

The broadcast was so good.  I wish I could have taken all my girls to listen to it.  It was about honoring our covenants and teaching our children to honor their covenants.  President Monson also spoke on the power of prayer.
Here is a brief review:
1.  Linda K. Burton -'The Power, Joy, and Love of Covenant Keeping' - "I invite each of us to evaluate how much we love the Savior, using as a measure how joyfully we keep our covenants."
2.  Carole M. Stephens - 'We Have Great Reason to Rejoice' - "When you love, watch over, and serve others in small and simple ways, you are actively participating in the work of salvation."
3.  Linda S. Reeves - 'Claim the Blessings of Your Covenants' - "As we renew and honor our covenants, our burdens can be lightened and we can continually become purified and strengthened."
4.  President Thomas S. Monson - 'We Never Walk Alone' - "You will one day stand aside and look at your difficult times, and you will realize that He was always there beside you."

Doing the dishes so I can watch the RS Broadcast

Aaron's daughter Katie was baptized today.  We were sorry we weren't able to be there, but Gail came all the way from Oregon to see his granddaughter baptized.

In other news, Kendall Hall, who is preparing to serve a mission in Argentina, went through the temple today with his parents.  Kendall is James's home teaching companion.
