Week of July 21 - July 27, 2024

Spiritual
Sunday was good. My lesson went pretty well. The rest of the day was quiet. 

Dee was able to attend the temple this week on Friday 

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

I have indexed 40,009 records and reviewed 17,391 records so far this year.

Family

The Wilkins Family
The Wilkins family is doing well. Mike has applied for a leadership promotion. Praying he gets the job! Allison is back to work this week preparing for school to begin on August 5. Adam is interviewing for another job. Grace was busy preparing for girls camp that she left for a few days ago. Lots of family history, church and pioneer history and a fun few days for her. Joshua is doing well and looking forward to beginning high school. Sam is becoming quite the skilled chef and prepares a meal for the family once each week. The a/c is keeping them cool through this hot las Vegas summer!

The Ethan Rice Family
Summer is winding down for this family. Wade got to go to school and meet his new second grade teacher.




The Doran Rice Family
Doran and Amber are finalizing their move. They will be leaving in early August, will stay with Nathan for a few days and then move to their new home, new schools and new jobs. They came by on Saturday for a visit. (I got sick early in the morning and dared not go near them. No one needs to be stopping every five minutes at a bathroom as they travel across the country.)

Morgan
No news from Morgan and Cassie.

Kayty
Kayty had a good work week. 

The Nathan Rice Family
Nathan and Jessica and the girls are doing well. They have been busily readying to start up the school year. Annie will be in third grade, Ellie in second grade, and Emma will be in kindergarten. She is so excited!! She also has two teeth ready to come out! The girls called on Tuesday and shared their Harry Potter Lego video game with me. They had a rainy day and had to stay indoors. Nathan had a work meeting on Friday and then spent the day readying for their busy weekend: Jessica at a homeschool convention in Texarcana, Nathan digging for fence posts to be put up, plus finishing reading the first Harry Potter and watching the movie.

Dad's Garden
We continue to keep our chickens alive. Sure wish they were laying eggs!! Basil is looking good. Dad is starting to add more organic matter to the beds. 

 
Other highlights
Dad was invited to a celebratory dinner for work at The Stockyards restaurant. He had a great meal and enjoyed meeting the voices he speaks with face to face.
