Snowflake temple
Picturing ourselves at the temple.
Left late for the temple but got there in plenty of time for the 8:30 session. Temple workers that we saw: Tricia and Steven Reidhead who were both workers in our session. Stewart Smith took me through the veil. Steven, Stewart and James are all former student body presidents at Snowflake Union High School.
3 Nephi 10:1-19
How have you seen Christ work in your life like a "hen gathering her chickens under her wings" for protection?C
Answer: A hen cares for her chicks and would sacrifice her life to protect them. When danger threatens, she gathers the chicks under her wings for protection. In a similar way, the Lord loves His people, the house of Israel. He gave His life for His people and has sought to gather them together so He could protect and nourish them. President Henry B. Eyring said: "More than once He has said that He would gather us to Him as a hen would gather her chickens under her wings. He says that we must choose to come to Him in meekness and with enough faith in Him to repent with full purpose of heart. (3 Nephi 10:6). One way to d that is to gather with the Saints in His Church. Go to your meetings, even when it seems hard. If you are determined, He will help you find the strength to do it." (CR, Apr. 2004, 16-`7; or Ensign, May 2004, 18).
GC: 'The Sacrament Can Help Us Become Holy' by Elder Peter F. Meurs
" Consider five ways to increase the impact and power of our regular participation in the sacred ordinance of
the sacrament. 1) Prepare in advance. 2) Arrive early 3) Sing and
learn from the words of the sacrament hymn.
4) Spiritually participate in the sacrament prayers.
5) Ponder and Remember Him as the sacrament
emblems are passed."

After the temple we went to El Cupidos for lunch. I had a beef tamale with red sauce and a beef taco. James had a chicken toastado and a fish taco. Our next stop, the Taylor Walmart. The first thing I did when I walked into the store was buy a pumpkin for $3.88.
Perfect!
The other reason we came to Walmart was to buy supplies for our Vernon food drive. Here is what we got.
All we need is the turkey and some rolls,
and a pumpkin pie.
We went home and took a nap. I got up to do some things and felt dizzy and nauseous. James gave me some soda water and I felt a little better. We watched two Aurora Teagarden episodes: The Julius House, and Three Bedrooms, Two Corpses. Afterwards I had some yogurt and a bowl of cereal because I felt better and was hungry.
Not sure where this is. I was going to say
Buckelew Springs but I knew I wouldn't get
away with it.
