"The Book of Mormon is not a book of history. The Book of Mormon is a book about the future. It describes episodes in the lives of people thousands of years ago, but the writers of the record and especially the compilers of the record were inspired by the Lord to include the things that we would need for the world in which we live today.”   — David A.

                                                            Happy Halloween 

  Happy Halloween


First we watched

Riggy in his school

Halloween costume parade...






Lots of parents 'n 

grandparents came...


Then Julie was in charge

of Riggy's fun 

4th grade class

Halloween Party...


Then Gary drove me

to my

 appointment for

my every 4-month

check of my wet

macular degeneration...


Leslie did the eye scans,

alphabet test, eye pressure,

eye dilation, and

all preliminaries...


Dr. Goff, the Retinologist

at Rocky Mtn. Eye Care 

in Murray

said I'm good for

another 4 months

without an eye injection,

unless I srart seeing 

wavy lines of a 

a straight image.


I've been in remission since

Sept 2023 of not needing

to have an eye injection.

Dr. Goff said this could go

3-5 years, but the chances 

of needing eye injections

after that is 80%.

There is no cure for

WMD, just eye injectiions

to keep you from

going blind.

It caused my Grampa Huffakerd. 

to go blind, and also his

son, my Uncle Don to

be blind at age 96.



Thank you for driving

me, Gary.


 Then it was time for...





Costume time...


This one didn't make

the final cut...


The Grim Reaper is what 

Riggy chose to be.



Maddie and Jacee were pixie fairies...

 
Maddie with friends...


Jackson on his way to a

Halloween party with college

friends...


Jacee - a pixie fairy...


Jacee whispering to the witch...


                                                                           Ready to deep fry 278 scones...

This was a fun surprise for... 


...Gary to come by in his

mummy costume...


...before going to his older

single adults' costume

Halloween dance.


He also was a pirate, and then

Indiana Jones at other October

Halloween line dances...


And then the scones were...


...all gone at 8:01 P.M.


Riggy's haul - Let the
sorting begin...

Before we put Halloween back 

in it's grave till 2025, let's look

at some Tom Holmoe costumes:

Holmoe took over the BYU department on March 1, 2005, which makes him the third longest-serving FBS athletics director in the country. He oversees a nationally recognized program with 21 intercollegiate sports, involving more than 600 student-athletes and a 220-person staff.

BYU athletic director--since 2005--Tom Holmoe unveiled his Halloween Costume for 2024.                                        (Isaac Hale, Deseret News)

Tom Holmoe Unveils Disney-Inspired Halloween Costume For 2024 - Jafar from Aladdin...                                     “Genie, for our third wish, we wish to have the most iconic director of athletics—in the world!”

 KSL Sports

This isn’t the first time Holmoe dressed as a character from Aladdin. In 2019, he dressed as the “Genie.”

The Jafar costume joins the ranks of impressive costumes by BYU’s veteran athletic director.

Halloween Costumes for BYU AD Tom Holmoe over the years

Here’s a breakdown of Holmoe’s costumes over the years.

Abraham Lincoln (2013)

This costume started linking Holmoe to the moniker “Mr. Halloween.” It’s a great tribute to an American icon. In the words of Lincoln himself, “Whatever you are, be a good one.” Holmoe was a good “Honest Abe.”

Albert Einstein (2015)

Simple. Classy. But one of these costumes had to take the last spot. Einstein lands here.

Lord Voldemort (2016)

I don’t claim to be the biggest Harry Potter fan in the world. But I can respect a good Halloween costume when I see one.

Mad Hatter (2017)

The Mad Hatter costume was wild. The makeup, creativity, and accessories were all top-notch. I thought I was looking into the eyes of Johnny Depp himself.


Coco’s “Ernesto De La Cruz” (2018)

This costume was Holmoe’s best. Imagine being his co-worker and seeing him show up to the office in this. Pretty impressive. Anything Disney is a big win, and this one hit it out of the park and made a cartoon character come to life. Very cool.

Aladdin’s “Genie” (2019)

What would your three wishes from Holmoe be? To think this costume is this low on the list speaks to the quality of costumes that Holmoe is putting out.

Phantom of the Opera (2020)

Holmoe didn’t stop Halloween festivities amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. It feels like this is too low. The simplicity is top-notch, but then he removes the mask, and it’s a work of art. It’s just hard to find a spot in the top three.

One can only imagine how many hours Holmoe spent in the chair of makeup artist Jennine Hollingshaus for this great costume.

Rafiki from Lion King (2021)

Just wow. What’s even more impressive is that Holmoe walked around the third floor of the BYU Student Athlete Building in the Rafiki stature.

Yoda (2022)

The Jedi master of Halloween.

Dumbledore (2023)

That Wizard cape is an elite fit.

Fun time Saturday...

Steve took me to eat supper

at JDawgs...

then the Tom Hanks movie

"Here"


It was a different take

on a movie, but we both

liked it.


It made us both nostalgic--

remembering the home we

grew up in.

Edwin Shoemaker and Edward Knabusch, cousins from Monroe, Michigan, invented the La-Z-Boy recliner in 1927: 


Another reason we liked it...

Tom Hanks...and the gal who was

the bride in "Princess Bride"

from 1987--Robin Wright--was

also interesting to see.





Thanks for a great evening, Stever.

Gospel Doctrine class...

Camie invited class members to

answer "Who are you?" as we

entered class.






4 Nephi "There Could Not

Be a Happier People"

and Mormon 1-6 "I Would

That I Could Persuade All...

To Repent"


Know the truth about who you are...

1. A CHILD OF GOD

2. A CHILD OF THE COVENANT

3. A DISCIPLE OF JESUS CHRIST


Camie had three ward members

represent three different ages

of Mormon...


Rigdon as an age 10 Mormon...


Sawyer as an age 15 Mormon...



Ben as a 25+ year old Mormon...



"Who are you?" 



"I know that I shall be

lifted up at the last day."


"...your mortal must put on immortality."


 "Behold, I am a disciple

of Jesus Christ."


"Who are you?" 

Know the truth about who you are...

1. A CHILD OF GOD

2. A CHILD OF THE COVENANT

3. A DISCIPLE OF JESUS CHRIST


 We will remember who we are!

Camie, thank you for

another inspiring lesson.


Camie with her son, Sawyer, who is

a handsome 15 y-o, portraying

Mormon at that age.


Congratulations, Brandon, on your

being called as the second counselor

** *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 3rd,

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: Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord. - Psalm 150:6
Daily Quote: I think the Latter-day Saints have a great obligation pressing in upon them to rejoice in the Lord, to praise him for his goodness and grace, to ponder his eternal truths in their hearts, and to set their hearts on righteousness. - Bruce R. McConkie

*** *** ***

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."
Daily Scripture: And blessed are all they who do hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled with the Holy Ghost. - 3 Nephi 12:6
Daily Quote: We have been promised the constant companionship of the third member of the Godhead and hence the privilege of receiving revelation for our own lives. - Sheri L. Dew
***  *** *** *** ***


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.
*** *** ***
Daily Scripture: This life became a probationary state; a time to prepare to meet God; a time to prepare for that endless state which has been spoken of by us, which is after the resurrection of the dead. - Alma 12:24
Daily Quote: I invite you to diligently learn about and appreciate the eternal importance of temple covenants, temple ordinances, and temple worship as you strive to come unto the Savior. - David A. Bednar

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.

Old Age…Unanswered Questions – 2024 Nov

I am old and I just realized I still have so many unanswered questions!!!! I never found out who let the Dogs Out...where's the beef...how to get to Sesame Street... why Dora doesn't just use Google Maps...why eggs are packaged in a flimsy paper carton, but batteries are secured in plastic that's tough as nails...why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed... why "abbreviated" is such a long word... why lemon juice is made with artificial flavor yet dish-washing liquid is made with real lemons... why they sterilize the needle for lethal injections... and, why do you have to "put your two cents in" but it's only a "penny for your thoughts" where's that extra penny going to... why do "The Alphabet Song" and "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" have the same tune... why did you just try to sing those two previous songs... and just what is Victoria's secret? ...and do you really think I am this witty?? ... I actually got this from a friend who stole it from her brother's girlfriend's uncle's cousin.

** *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 10th,

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: Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord. - Psalm 150:6
Daily Quote: I think the Latter-day Saints have a great obligation pressing in upon them to rejoice in the Lord, to praise him for his goodness and grace, to ponder his eternal truths in their hearts, and to set their hearts on righteousness. - Bruce R. McConkie

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."
Daily Scripture: And blessed are all they who do hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled with the Holy Ghost. - 3 Nephi 12:6
Daily Quote: We have been promised the constant companionship of the third member of the Godhead and hence the privilege of receiving revelation for our own lives. - Sheri L. Dew

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.
*** *** ***
Daily Scripture: This life became a probationary state; a time to prepare to meet God; a time to prepare for that endless state which has been spoken of by us, which is after the resurrection of the dead. - Alma 12:24
Daily Quote: I invite you to diligently learn about and appreciate the eternal importance of temple covenants, temple ordinances, and temple worship as you strive to come unto the Savior. - David A. Bednar

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.
