thanks kids

We got our birthday present this week. Wow! You guys are amazing. We are so excited. Now I just have to read the book or else get some one to show me how to work it all. I did take some pictures and deleted some so now I just need to get them on the computer. Thank you all so much. We love it! We got to help in the Twin Falls Temple yesterday. It was such an awesome experience, we loved it. It really feels like our Temple. As I watched the young people come in and look at the baptism font I kept thinking this is for you. Please come back often and love the temple. If you do you will have nothing to fear, and life will be good. I appreciated the boys coming in white shirts and ties and the girls in cute dresses with their hair fixed nice and who seemed so receptive to the spirit. I know it will be a great blessing to us in our area to have a Temple to use and enjoy. So if you want to come to the temple any time we will go with you or we will help you get there just go to the temple and feel the love our Heavenly Father has for us. Have a great day.

Hey guys, Just want to say hi,

Dad and I went to Jean's and fixed her oven today. She was so excited. They bought it 45 years ago when they moved out here and she has never had to repair anything till the heating element went out about a year ago. She and several others have been trying to find a part for this model but they just don't make them anymore. So she was willing to let us try. I told her Dad could fix anything. We checked on the internet and found just what the others had found that they had stopped making parts for this stove. So Dad took the numbers and the element to park view and they did some checking and finally after several attempts came up with one almost like it. So today we took the tools Dad thought he would need and tried our luck and it worked. I think Jean is still a little bit in shock but I hope she will enjoy having her oven so she can make all the pies she wants. She is the best cook, so now she can use her oven again and do all the fun things she enjoys. We told them we were selling the cows and Max said he had a dream that Dad and I went on a mission. He said now you can go. I was so surprised, I thought wow I guess we really are suppose to go if Max said he knew that was what we were to do. So one day probably not so far away we will let you all know how that turns out but for now we will serve the best we can on this one and hope we will be better prepared when we get to go further away. Have a nice evening and be good. Read your scriptures, say your prayer, write in your journals and don't forget to brush your teeth. One day you will be glad you did. trust me on this one.

Hi everyone

David is helping me learn how to post. So I'll give it a try and see if you get this. I'm watching McKynli and Klayton play up and down the stairs. They are busy little ones. It is getting hot here and so we spend alot of time downstairs. I'm looking forward to spending time this weekend with some of you and wish all of you could come but maybe next year. We are still milking cows but hopefully soon that will change and give us more time to spend with all of you. That would be fun. It's great to have David home again, he's alot of help. I don't have a camera to post pictures yet but this is a new computer. We had to get a new one, ours broke a few months ago and we have been using Brian's and Cali's so this will be nice to have. Well have a great day!
