Highlights:
Spiritual
We had a good Sunday. Sacrament Meeting, Sunday School and Relief Society were great. Dad went home teaching during the afternoon. I went to choir practice at the same time.
I attended a session at the Phoenix Temple on Monday morning. It is open one Monday a year, and I had previously always been busy. It was a very full session, and it was great walking in and seeing youth entering and exiting the baptistry.
Scouts was a bit crazy with my texts of information and then scheduled activities changing as I texted, but we accomplished what we wanted. Dad did a service project delivering treats for Young Mens.
I have indexed 6530 records so far this year.
I am in Moroni 2 in the Book of Mormon. I finished reading the February Ensign Magazine.
Family
The Wilkins Family
Adam was a great help on Monday and hung up the components to Grace's feature wall in her bedroom on Monday.
Grace told me they had a good week. Adam had a scout campout. She had great activity days. Her teacher had to miss school for a family emergency and was gone two days. Josh had a good time in cub scouts too.
The Ethan Rice Family
Ethan and Cameo took the kids to the Atlanta Zoo last Saturday. It was a lovely day and they had a great time!
Kaylee really enjoyed feeding the flamingos!
Wade liked the animals, as long as they stayed still.
Kaylee was on Winter Break all week, and wasn't feeling well Friday so she headed to bed for a good nap and then felt much better.
They tried to reach me for many nights, but I was tiling. Finally, on Friday night, we got to FaceTime. Wade got a "new" tool bench with lots of accessories and both kids were enjoying it. They are doing well, and Wade is a climbing adventurer.
The Doran Rice Family
Doran, Amber, Kelsie and Kooper had a pretty typical, busy week.
Morgan
No word from Morgan. Dad tried to call on Saturday night but he must be busy.
Kayty
Kayty looked and applied all week for jobs. She had an interview Thursday, and then Friday, other requests for interviews started coming in. She also went down to Amazon for a hiring event. Things are looking a bit brighter.
The Nathan Rice Family
Another long, busy, and very cold week for this family. Lots of school plus extra things taking lots of precious time. Lots of studying, lots of cold weather and snow. Tests and classes.
Dad's Garden
We had unusually cold weather and near freezing temperatures this week. We spent time covering the tomato plants in the wind and kept the covers on for nights. We are waiting for a warm day to take the covers off and see how all fared. We still are getting a lot of snow peas and dad is eating lots of turnips.
Year of the House Part 2
Well, Saturday afternoon we FINALLY finished putting up all the shower tile!!! It was a huge effort. Dad cut every single tile. I put up every single tile. Glad we did it, but not doing it again!
Other highlights
Cool weather is nice, and I am thankful for the cool down so I will be a bit prepped to go to Idaho next week.
We attended our dear friend Janet Whiting's funeral on Tuesday. Her husband and sons spoke. Many instances of spiritual promptings and all the fun and good Janet did in the world. During one portion, our bishop shared that Janet had been working for years on her Young Women Personal Progress Award. On February 6, she called April, his wife and the Young Women Secretary, to have her go over Janet's personal progress book and deem the award complete. She had wanted it to be awarded when her granddaughters could be at church to witness. Janet's health failed so very quickly, and she never got a chance to receive the award before she died on February 14th. Bishop, thus, awarded it posthumously to Janet's eldest granddaughter. Bishop shared some things she had written in her personal progress book and her testimony. What a precious treasure to have shared with us and to see just how wonderful she was. I remember going to Janet's house and her making a sewn quilted zipper pouch with my name on it for my purse. She was prepared and had made many many pouches of all sized and given them away all over the world. I went to visit her during her breast cancer when she was strong enough and looked at all the quilts she had started. She loved to laugh, to teach, to chat and to sew. She was fun, and a great inspiration.
Nano shopping went well this week. WalMart and 99 cent store plus a trip to the bank.
We enjoyed watching the Winter Olympics from South Korea this week.
Sharynn and Nhiya came by to visit on Thursday evening.
