Last weekend Jesse and I had the opportunity to receive our Patriarchal Blessings. I have been thinking about this for about a year now and we finally made it happen. We both stop going to church around the age of twenty so we missed the opportunity to get it when we were younger. We had a wonderful experience last Sunday. Our kids were there, Jesse and I did it together it was great. His blessing talked of me and mine talked of him what a wonderful blessing to have the Lord recognize our eternal love for each other. What a wonderful teaching experience for our kids. I told the kids before we left that this man the Patriarch, is very special and that Heavenly Father talks to him. The kids thought that was so cool! We both cried like babies, several times that day. I felt the spirit almost constant that day. What a great day!
Item #2 Found!
Guess who found the camera? ME! Here are a few photos that I found....
Item #3 Halloween!
Dylan was a Lego this year, thanks to Grannie Joan for the wonderful idea. This boy is passionate about Lego's. He breaths, eats, sleeps, and dreams Lego's so it was perfect that he was a Lego this year. He was the only one of his kind in the whole school so he thought that was pretty cool. Cheap too!
Sophie was a cowgirl this year. She loves petty skirts and so I thought she could be a cowgirl this year. I look everywhere for cowgirl boots, Wal-mart, Pay less, Shop-KO, D.I., and I finally made the trip to Target and I found the cutest pink boots! She was so, excited and so was I, she wore them until she went to bed.
I was a witch! The kids loved that I dressed up, they thought that I looked scary.
I had my spider greet the kids at the door. He was a hit!
It rained and blew like crazy just before the kids were ready to go out, but low and behold the sun popped through at the perfect time. It was cold we had to layer up but they had a great time and got tons of candy!
Let the sorting and trading begin.....
The pumpkins! Dylan's did a skeleton pumpkin and Sophie a cat and a moon. They are getting to the age that they do it themselves. Sophie had a little help from Dad but Dylan did it all by his self!
