Week of July 17 - July 23, 2022

Spiritual

Dad spoke at another ward with the Stake Highcouncilman in their Sacrament Meeting. Our meeting was good. I discovered as I sat in sharing time that my other teacher was not in town, so I called dad to come over and help with the lesson. I had a full class including one boy who rarely comes and is not accustomed to church or sitting and listening. We were blessed from on high and had a great lesson and discussion in the class.  

We were able to get appointments to attend the temple this week. I attended a session on Tuesday morning and Dad attended on Thursday night. 

My daily morning foundation of General Conference talk(s), prayer, scripture study and Come Follow Me study continues each day. 

I have indexed 31,322 records and reviewed 63,608 records so far this year. It has been more and more difficult to index as there are fewer and fewer records available. 

Family

The Wilkins Family

The Wilkins Family shared some pictures from their wonderful camping trip last week. 

Adam has been struggling at work. Heat! They had been promised extra pay as the temperatures rose, but apparently 114 degrees is not hot enough. Grace had a good week and left for Girls Camp early on Monday. She shared some pics as she returned Saturday.

 Allison started back to work...training...and here is her classroom.

The Ethan Rice Family

Ethan, Cameo and family are doing well and enjoying Summer. 

The Doran Rice Family

Doran and Amber and family headed up to Flagstaff for a vacation and cooler weather in Flagstaff. 

Morgan

No news from Morgan this week. 

Kayty

Kayty had a good work week. She enjoyed keeping up with the baseball all-star game. 

The Nathan Rice Family

Home School started this week for Anna and Ellie and it went well. The only student needing to see the principal was...Eve! She wanted to occupy too much of the teacher's time. This week included swimming at a friend's house, a chiropractor visit for Annie, piano lessons and swim time here, visits to Grammy Lorrie, and an overnight campout up in Flagstaff with Doran and family. 

Dad's Garden

Dad is working on the other raised bed, getting the forms up to pour the foundation.

Me, my moms brother Uncle John D. Hart, Jr, and Scott

Sharynn is added playing the bongos

I remember this dress. I had what I thought were gogo boots, though they were cloth instead of vinyl/patent leather

My cook Western Day outfit made by Mom

I so remember this play house. I helped my dad build it. He told me it was a house for the lawn mower. I woke up and was so surprised to see the red gingham curtains and a countertop and chair inside. 

Christmas in July

I completed my ornaments including labeling and wrapping. I also watched The Santa Clause 2 and 3. 

Other highlights

We had some nice rain on Sunday night and a little on Monday morning. That was the nicest part of my week of jogging. Saturday, I jogged in 98-degree weather. It was brutal!

We got a flat of raspberries on Wednesday and those became jam on Saturday morning. 

On my run Wednesday, I saw something cross the street in front of me in a neighborhood. It was a raccoon! He ended up posing for me, and then returned to his walking across the street as I jogged on.
