"Each time we say the word amen when that prayer is offered on our behalf, we pledge that by partaking of the bread, we are willing to take upon us the holy name of Jesus Christ, always remember Him, and keep His commandments. In turn, we are promised that we may always have His Spirit to be with us. Because of these promises, the Savior is the rock upon which we can stand safely and without fear in every storm we face."
I got up early, before six, but not back on schedule. Still a bit sluggish in the morning.
I had a pure carb breakfast: cereal, pie, lemon cake bites, and on yes, a shake with a little protein. Maybe this is why I am feeling sluggish.
I made sub sandwiches for lunch. This afternoon I played Five Crowns with Jared and Kacey. We also watched the Beach Boy movie about Brian Wilson, "Love and Mercy." Kind of a sad story with sort of a happy ending but definitely not Hallmark worthy.
Today is Tanna Conrad's birthday. James is her ministering brother so he wanted to take her a treat. Jared offered to do the baking when we decided on peanut butter cookies. We had to throw out some of our peanut butter because it was so old it was rancid. Anyway, the cookies turned out delicious and we had our fair share while giving a dozen or so to Tanna.
This afternoon we watched Taylor Cole starring as "Ruby Herring" on Hallmark Movies and Mysteries. It was pretty good. I guessed who the killer was before the ending.
James made us venison and gravy for dinner. I put the biscuits in the oven. Everything was delicious and Kacey and I both had seconds.
We watched "Maverick" this evening.
Summer had a photo session today for her senior pictures. Her photographer is from Show Low. Of course Vickie knows the family.
Trina sent me a couple of texts today. One was of their kitchen cabinets and railing being installed in their new house and another one was of Lola's gratitude journal.
Trina is so excited about this house!
Trina has her kids write 3 things they are thankful for each night.
Tonight Lola was thankful for us coming to visit and for Charlie and her family and she wishes we would come back.
The Trezise's love their dog!
This definitely interrupts my joy!
I guess Roe vs. Wade was on the 22nd, not
on James's birthday.
I'm doing it now!
She loves to look at colors.
Kacey is reading Llama, llama, red pajama to Charlie
with her llama pajamas on.
Such a pretty girl with a great smile!
