Christlike Attributes:
"Hope"
I firmly believe that I
will dwell with God 
and become like Him
Ether 12:4
One of my greatest desires
is to inherit eternal life
Moroni 7:41

This morning before church I studied the Sunday School lesson from the book of Isaiah entitled: "Thou Hast Done Wonderful Things."  I also made chocolate lasagna for tonight's dessert.  We are having Harold, Vickie, Dennis, and Denise over for dinner.  

The Smith's, Wes and Teresa, reported on their mission to Colby, Kansas.  Teresa told of a woman who was born and raised in Kansas and had lived there all her life.  This woman spoke with a British accent.  When Teresa asked how this could be the woman told her she had fallen down the stairs and hit her head and had spoke with the accent ever since.  She said: "They have tried to get me to speak like a Kansas hick, but nothing works."

It was raining when we got out of church today.

After church and lunch our home teachers, Collin DeWitt and Chuck Crane came for a visit.  Afterwards James went to take a nap.  I started working in the kitchen.  The roast was already in and the desserts were made.  I made mashed potatoes, rolls, and James helped with the salad. We also had corn and asparagus.

Although we enjoyed visiting with my brothers and their wives, I have decided these dinners need to be on Saturday instead of Sunday.  I am upset that I didn't take any pictures! Vickie did give me this picture:
Monte's girls: Madison & Kaytlynn
Harold and Vickie have retired from their Dishnetwork business.
Brian and Cher left for their new home in Vancouver, Washington this week.
Dennis and Denise our going to Del Rio, Texas this week for Lizzie's baptism.  Lizzie is Jenifer's third daughter.  
I am grateful to James.  While I was visiting he cleaned the kitchen and did all of the dishes. 

After everyone was gone I made a visit to Julie Wilhelm to take her the visiting teaching message.  She will be gone this week and I will be gone the next week.  She said I was the first visiting teacher she has ever had that actually made a visit.  How sad.
