Family is Everything…
I didn't take any photos today.
I ran some errands. I ordered Walt's Patriarcal Blessing from the Church History Dept, or whichever Dept it is, I just went to the Church site, and in the section that has my Ward and Stake, there's a line that says "Patriarchal Blessings" where you can order a copy of any family members patriarchal blessing. I used to have Walt's in my computer but I guess it didn't get transferred from my old computer to my new one. 
Worked on my blog.

  Ladies' Lunch today was at Waffle Love.
The seven who could come today...
Eileen, Judy, LeAnn,
Sharon, Sandi, Linda, and Jennie.
We were right next to the medical offices
where Jennie does counseling.
Lots of different toppings for waffles...
all kinds of fruit, whipped cream, but I was surprised that they even had chicken and other meats.

Fred Astaire and Leslie Caron

Family is Everything…
 Tonight we were invited by Jennie to come
and listen to a singer, Tim Schwarz, at
The Harvest. We bought our dinner, and
then we donated what we felt it would cost to
go to a concert and hear a singer live like this.
 Judy invited another of her friends to
join us - Claudia. She is from Riverton.
Judy drove Linda and me.
Jennie and Alan also brought a friend.
today
Toward the end, another singer came to
join Tim in some duets and also did some solos.
Her name is Eden, but I didn't get her last name written down.
We left at 8:30, when Tim said the program would end.
He and Eden were going to sing a few more songs,
but we wanted to get home before dark. 
None of us like to drive after sundown anymore.

 Maddie's birthday..."14"
Since she didn't have to be in school early, she chose to have her
"breakfast in bed," and also open her presents there.
 So the family members who were home joined her there.
Grama, Riggy, John, and Julie taking the photo.
 Her birthday party was at the Classic Fun Center...
in Orem or Provo.
 It included roller skating. Eleven friends joined her.
 Yummy birthday cake from Ridley's...
 Everyone had a great time!
 I did't hear what the vests were for.
 The birthday supper was at Brick Oven in Provo.
Happy Birthday, Maddie!

+ *I AM SO THANKFUL FOR THE PLAN OF SALVATION AND THE ATONEMENT OF  JESUS CHRIST THAT MAKES THIS GREAT PLAN OPERATIONAL.
At the end of this May 16th,
I pray you have had a
restful , peaceful, and spiritual
Sabbath Day...
I share these truths as my testimony to you...
Heavenly Father lives and knows us each by name. He loves us and wants us to return to Him and Heavenly Mother when we leave this mortal existence.  He loves us just as we are at this very moment.
*** *** ***
Daily Scripture: And if Christ had not risen from the dead, or have broken the bands of death that the grave should have no victory, and that death should have no sting, there could have been no resurrection. - Mosiah 16:7
Daily Quote: There can be no sacrifice greater than the atoning sacrifice of the Savior Jesus Christ. His Atonement, though incomprehensible and without equal, was this world’s crowning event. Gratefully, because of His supreme offer of charity, there is no sting of death, and the grave has no victory. - Robert K. Dellenbach
Jesus Christ came to earth as The Only Begotten of the Father and fulfilled the Atonement. He is the Redeemer of all. 
*** *** ***
Joseph Smith was foreordained to be the Prophet of the Restoration.  He is the Restorer of all things.
*** *** ***
President Russell M. Nelson is the Living Prophet today for all the world. 
*** *** ***
The Bible is "the Word of God as far as it is translated correctly" and is a Testament of the Divinity of Jesus Christ.
*** *** ***
The Book of Mormon is the Word of God and is Another Testament of Jesus Christ. It is the most correct book of any book on earth.
*** *** ***
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the True Church on the earth today.  
*** *** ***
Of these truths I testify in the Name of Jesus Christ, amen.
