Week of August 7 - August 13, 2022

Spiritual
We enjoyed a wonderful fast and testimony meeting on Sunday with many sharing faith filled experiences. My class went well and we had a quiet day. 

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

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

I have indexed 33,581 records and reviewed 66,483 records so far this year.

It looks like i had a birthday party. These were rare since no one was doing anything on July 4th in Phoenix. It was at the Tuckey Lane house. 








 
Other highlights
Some nice rain. 

Some not so nice dirty filters and not so nice weeds led to chores on Saturday morning.

Ethan spent the rest of the week working in Pennsylvania. We enjoyed a FaceTime Visit on Friday afternoon. Kaylee gave us a tour of her room and the new areas she has set up in it. Wade shared his many lego projects. Ethan is doing well at work and has been given greater responsibilities. Cameo is well.

We shared Family home evening with this family on Monday. We then got to peel green chilis that Nathan had roasted in his roaster. It was so fun and the work went quickly. Home school is going well and Ellie seemed to enjoy Language Arts more this week. 

Dad's Garden
Dad is ready to pour footings for the next raised bed garden. Nathan hopefully can help lift the cement in the mixer during piano lessons next week.

I loved this doll: Baby Kissy. You would put her hands together and she would kiss.

Scott and I got matching stuffed Scotty dogs for Christmas. Scott kept his until it was nearly in shreds. 







 
Other highlights
On Monday, we went to Grandma's for a few minutes to visit with Dad's cousin Bob McFarland and his Aunt Debbie. Then we hurried to Nathan's to share family home evening with their family and peel roasted green chilies that Nathan had roasted on his own grilltop unit. 

Tuesday morning finally had no clouds and I could see Orion for the first time since Mid February!

Great rain storms this week have left our yard happy, but left our pool a bit on the green side on Friday.
