Driving in the car today, Carter randomly says,
"Nana tells Grandad, OH FRANK!"
we laughed and laughed...

Canning
Anyone interested in getting the stake canner and doing some canning (flour, sugar, etc) one night while the kids swim? (obviously I'm inviting myself to use your stake canner and your pool here!)

Happy, to each of us...
Happy Mother's Day to each of us with a "Mother Heart." Sister Julie Beck explains in more detail what a mother heart is:
"What is a mother heart and how is one acquired? We learn about some of those qualities in the scriptures. To paraphrase Proverbs: “Who can find a … woman [with a mother heart]? for her price is far above rubies. … She … worketh willingly with her hands. … With the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. … She stretcheth out her hand to the poor. … Strength and honour are her clothing. … She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness” (Prov. 31:10, 13, 16, 20, 25–27). A woman with a mother heart has a testimony of the restored gospel, and she teaches the principles of the gospel without equivocation. She is keeping sacred covenants made in holy temples. Her talents and skills are shared unselfishly. She gains as much education as her circumstances will allow, improving her mind and spirit with the desire to teach what she learns to the generations who follow her." We all have a mother heart. So Happy Mother's Day to:
Katie
Stephanie Wendy
Marlee
Jess and Amy
and Mom.
