Jesus Christ, Glory of
DC 110:3
His eyes were as a flame of fire; the hair of his head was white like the pure snow; his countenance shone above the brightness of the sun; and his voice was as the sound of the rushing of great waters, even the voice of Jehovah, saying:
Book of Mormon
Helaman 10:1-19
New Testament : Galatians "Walk in the Spirit"
Galatians 4
General Conference
Exercising Our Spiritual Muscles
Elder Juan Pablo Villar
"I bear my witness that we are children of a loving Heavenly Father. His Son, Jesus Christ, loves us He came to this world to show us the way and then gave His life voluntarily to give us hope. The Savior invites us to follow His perfect example, to exercise our faith in Him and His Atonement, and to expand all the spiritual gifts that we have been blessed with. He is the way. This is my testimony, in the name of Jesus Christ, amen."
This is the one time of the year that James sometimes gets up before I do. He goes out and blows his elk call. If any answer close by he puts on his camos and takes off with the camera and binoculars.
We read Galatians 4 today as part of our scripture study. I did not know that Ishmael represents the Law of Moses and Isaac represents Abraham and the Law of Christ.
James goes upstairs to work after scriptures and his big breakfast. I guess he doesn't like the fact that I always have the fan on at the dining room table.
I sold a book today, did some research and buying, and repriced some books. I finished my walking by 5:30 because we are watching the Grapp kids tonight and I won't be able to walk once they get here. I had 15,000 steps by 5:30.
Sister Dye passed away around 3 a.m. this morning. James got a text from her granddaughter Tanna.
We watched all the Grapp kids, including baby Leland while Thomas and Cammy went to work on their barn. I guess that's their idea of a date, something they can do alone together.
The girls had horse jumping lessons in Star Valley today so Benson had alot of pent up energy. He had his own little nerf gun war going on. Liana was a huge help with Leland. She changed diapers and made sure he was happy.
Tildy was a little subdued. She fell off her horse today and was pretty quiet. Thank goodness she had a helmet on.
I made some popcorn and we watched "When Hope Calls."
Emsley just turned six and she is the best little TV watcher. She sat on my recliner seat and never moved while James fed her M&M's and I made her popcorn.
It was a fun-filled evening. The girls played Barbies and Calico Critters, and Emsley and I colored. When Thomas and Cammy got home Liana had stripped Leland down to his diaper because she thought he was hot. I think Cammy was a little miffed but he was happy after being a little fussy.
The kids all gave us a hug when they left and Emsley said: "Thank you for letting us come."
I couldn't resist posting this cute picture.
This is what I love about Great Britain.

Liana and Leland.
This boy has the longest eyelashes I've ever seen.
We want Charlie to meet him.
I guess I did get steps while watching the
Grapp kids.
