The Allen family were the speakers in sacrament meeting today. Jackson was the youth speaker, and then his parents Tina and Steve spoke also. They were all such good talks. Jackson spoke on prayer and establishing a relationship with Heavenly Father. Tina spoke on forgiveness and our relationships with others. She told about naming Rusty after her stepfather whom she never liked and how it changed his life. Steve spoke on the importance of home teaching and building a home for a lady in Mexico in one day and what a profound effect this act of service had on his life. They were all excellent talks and you could truly feel the Spirit.
At the end of the meeting President Williams said a few words and commented on how much he loved the Vernon ward. He told about sharing the Book of Mormon with one of his pastor friends in Show Low. It was a great meeting!
Today in Primary our lesson was on "The Conversion of Paul." The kids in my class decided they wanted to sit on the floor. I told them I would allow it if they would listen and participate in the lesson. We had a visitor. His name is Virgil James. Others in the class: Ashten, Joely, Zemira, Talena, and Braylin. The kids all asked Braylin how he broke his arm and he was embarrassed to tell them. I told them he was running and fell and that seemed to satisfy their curiosity. I didn't tell them it happened in Safeway.
Trenda gave me a hug as I was walking into Primary sharing time and she made this comment: "Sister Lambson, let me know when Brother Lambson is gone and I will come and visit and keep you company. I told her I would love that!
James and Brother Lauritzen had a home teaching appointment with Virgil Cooper after the block. I sat out in the car and waited for him. We drove home and he left again to visit the Scott's and the Kip Hunsaker family. Speaking of Hunsaker's, I think I forgot to mention that Tyler got his mission call. He is going to West Virginia and will leave in January.

Denice Hall is going to teach my class next week so we can stay in the valley for family activities. Ron Hall, Denice's husband, is teaching James's class.
James and Rick Lauritzen wanted to visit the Wallace's but George was too sick.
I was tired and lazy this afternoon while James was gone. I did get a phone call from Sheri about getting another small turkey for Thanksgiving. I told her I would take care of it and go into town tomorrow.
This evening we watched:
"Merry Matrimony"
"Holiday Baggage"
"Annie Claus is Coming to Town"
