Dedicated to our seven children--Janie, Gary, Steve, David, Julie, Brian, Jen, their spouses, our 39 grandchildren, 6 great-grandchildren, and posterity to come.

Class of 1957.

Joy is coming to a knowledge of our

and keeping our focus on

Christ 

and His Covenant Path.

 

There were 20 in class today...

Here are Eileen, Camie, and Hiroko

I was able to get a photo of a few

class members before they left...

 This quote is not true for me, but it 

did make me chuckle:

The best babysitters, of course, are the baby’s grandparents. You feel completely comfortable entrusting your baby to them for long periods, which is why most grandparents flee to Florida.
― Dave Barry, humor columnist

 Julie told me last night that 

Season 5 of

The Crown just came out.

I watched Episodes 1 and 2 last night

and hope to watch another tonight.

I think Queen Elizabeth II was

foreordained to be 

Queen of England, and

fulfilled that calling well.

She had deep faith and

trust in God.

The first Season of the Crown

premiered in Nov 2016.

It goes from Elizabeth's

marriage to Prince Phillip in 1947

to the birth of her fourth

and last child in 1960s.

Season 2, 3, 4, came

out between then and now

Season 5 has begun.

They acknowledge some inaccuracies,

but it has been fascinating to

follow the lives of the

members of the Royal Family

of Great Britain.

I have not seen Season 4,

but I did follow Seasons 1-2-3.

Family is Everything…

  

I had an appointment for an

ultrasound today. 

The results are that

everything is normal.

These three darling gals

at the Imagery Center helped me a lot.

They gave their permission to

have their photos on my blog.

Jodi, Gina, and Lauren.

The sun was shining but

it was still cold and windy

when I left

It's always nice

to get back home.

 And it's always fun when

Riggy gets home from school.

 One added bonus for Big 12-bound

 BYU? No more silent 

Saturdays in November

When Cougars part ways with independence in 2023, they will also say goodbye to late-season byes

"Some goodbyes are easier than others. In BYU’s case, saying adios to silent

 Saturdays in November will be a raucous occasion. The late-season byes 

represent the cost of independence when your name isn’t Notre Dame 

and BYU has paid a high price..."

Lauren Oramas, a senior in high

school and loves to dance.

She gave a great talk about

being one with Christ, ending 

with this quote from J. Golden Kimball:

"I walk the path of the Savior

as often as I can."

Eric Luedtke II reported his

Washington Vancouver Mission today.

He said he hoped he wouldn't say 

anything stupid today. He's been

home 5 days and had forgotten

how busy and complicated life

can be.

He said his life is happy because

of Jesus Christ.

** *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 November 13th,

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. 

He knows what our potential is.

*** *** ***

Jesus Christ came to earth as The Only Begotten of the Father and fulfilled the Atonement. He is the Redeemer of all.

*** *** ***

I am thankful for the guidance of the Holy Ghost as the third member of the Godhead. 

Walt said to me once: "I look forward to thanking the Holy Ghost in person when I get to Heaven. I don't think we give Him enough credit for all He does."

***  *** *** *** ***

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.  Because of the restored Temple Ordinances families can be sealed for eternity.

*** *** ***

Of these truths I testify in the Name of Jesus Christ, amen.
