It's Monday, January 17, 2011 and I got some flowers and 2 hats done this past weekend. I also posted a pic of Brock's CTR ring. It's black with a silver cursive CTR insert. I couldn't get a good pic of Jentry's but hers is VERY nice too. Her ring is called "shooting star." I got them from Deseret Book and they are both from RingMasters. They like their NEW rings! It was A GOOD and PRODUCTIVE Saturday! We ALL went to church as a family yesterday (16th)and it was NICE! I didn't get much sleep on Sat. night, in fact, I think Satan works extra hard on me to keep me from going to church, especially when I make my mind up BEFORE going that I WILL go. I either DON'T sleep OR I get sick etc... Jerry walked out at 8 a.m. (I had probably been asleep not even an hour) and asked if I was going to church and who to get up next and I said I don't know...I haven't slept all night and then I thought, NOPE...I am GOING!!! I got up and got ready and me and Jentry got to church by 9 a.m. and Brock was a little late, but he came around 9:25 with Jer. I was glad to be in Relief Society with other sisters and to hear the lesson given by a dear sister (don't know her name) on fasting. It sure made me happy to see Sister Johnson, Sister McBean and Sister Beacham and just to be amongst the other sisters. I talked to Sister Billings for a few minutes. It was nice seeing her. I was GLAD we got to church! A GOOD way to start the week! It is ALWAYS so nice to take the sacrament with my family and I'm glad for the times we are ALL together.

I came home and slept most of the afternoon. Jerry made a GREAT turkey dinner. Turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn and yams. YUMMY! We usually watch a movie as a family on Sunday but the kids didn't have school on Monday or Tuesday so I let Mike come over on Sunday night and we let the family movie night for this week...pass us up. We will watch something next Sunday. Tonight is FHE and I am going to give Jentry a message in the Conference Ensign and let HER do the lesson tonight. I have prayed over how to handle FHE's with older kids in the home and I think if I let THEM prepare the lesson once in a while, it will do us all some good. I have always been in charge and now I can let them be "in charge" once a month. So, the lesson is Steadfast and Immovable by: Silvia Allred and we'll see what Jentry comes up with for this lesson. I am EXCITED! I will report back later.
This morning Jerry made me some fresh O.J. using our Wolfgang Puck blender/juicer (we got for Christmas) and it wass SOOOOO tasty! I have only got 3 reports done today and it's been pretty slow, because of the holiday, but I did get some done. Tomorrow I will need to really get at it! I'm sure there will be lots to do. I LOVE my job and I love my family! I am BLESSED!!!!!
