Isaac and His Awesome Teacher!

Kinder Days with Hallie

I went to pick up Hallie from school and this how she looked.
I love Kindergarten! That thing in the front of Hallie is Isaac's See's sucker- He was jumping in front of the picture to mess it up. :)

Matt Dressed up on Valentines to Woo the Girls

I woke Matthew up to get I ready for school. I walked passed the bathroom a little while later and to my surprise Matt was all dressed up in a tie and his vest. When we took the pictures he even tried to look Rico Suave!

Look closely and you'll see a pink heart on his vest. :)

Happy 18th Birthday Robyn!

Sheri Dew and Wendy Watson Nelson Rock!

Day 18 My friend Val and our visit with Laurel.
Day 19 The "Perfect" Day! Legoland- short if any rides, great weather, no traffic, super fun, time with family!!! We only spent $60 on five tickets!
Day 20 I had lunch with my bestfriend from before high school. We hadn't seen each other for like 7 or 8 years.
Day 21 Wow! Sheri Dew and Wendy Watson Nelson (Russel M. Nelson, Apostle of the Lord-his wife) came and spoke. This was like more than a tender mercy! What a day!!!

This ends my 21 days of Tender Mercies. It has been sweet! I love the Lord with all of my heart, might, mind and strength. I feel his love daily and have been richly blessed. Jesus is my Brother and my Savior. He bore my griefs and just when I have thought I could bare no more he was there to calm my troubled heart. I love him and want to be more like him. I am so grateful to be a Daughter of a Father in Heaven who loves me. I have felt him close by. He has carried me through. I have often envisioned him rocking me like a new born baby during very trying days! I find comfort in knowing he is all knowing, never changing, omnipresent and my God!!!
I have seen way too much to ever deny Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost!!!

It's been a few days

Day 14 Today was such a sweet experience going to the temple. In the temple we have the opportunity to do ordinances such as baptism for members of our family who have passed on. This is so special because some times you can feel their presence. On this particular experience I got to do sealings for some of my family. Sealings are when you seal for eternity a husband and wife together or seal a child to their parents for eternity. I could feel joy and excitement from the other side. Some may call me crazy but as you do genealogy the vale becomes thin!
Day 15 At church a man who reminds me of my Grandpa Cooper (he's passed on) gave a talk on the temple and how it makes him feel when he does temple work. He talked about how he saw an angel in the temple. It was neat to here a story like that come from a no nonsense type of man.
Day 16 Family Night with friends!:) We made rockets, I can't wait to lauch them.
Day 17 I was having a terrible nightmare and was woken up out of my sleep which is rare for me to ever wake up in the middle of the night. I was sooo grateful to wake up and then be able to fall back to sleep pretty fast

Tender Mercies in the form of friends!

Chatted with my old friends from Texas! What Joy!!!
