Family Dinner 1-30-2011

Sunday Menu:
Chili (served with grated cheese & onions)
Corn Bread & Crackers
Birthday Cake & Ice Cream

We will be celebrating Ron and Steve's birthdays -- I usually ask one of the birthday people what kind of cake they would like but I'm going to take the cook's prerogative and choose myself. I haven't made Carrot Cake for a long time -- so that's what it will be.
Looking forward to seeing all of you! Love our family gatherings!

oops! I almost forgot -- "Prize Winning Chili"

youth.lds.org

I may be the last in the family to look at youth.lds.org but I'm posting this just in case there is someone else that hasn't seen it yet. After the site comes up click on A Work In Progress. You'll see Tyler Haws, etc. It's well worth watching. If you look closely you will also see Ron & Karlene in it.
The Haws family and Ron & Karlene's family have been close friends for several years. They were there when Tyler opened his mission call.
Also the Haws family (Tyler's grandfather, Ralph, also known a pee-wee) grew up in the same ward as I did - Lehi Fifth Ward so we have an interest in the Haws Family Events.

Preference 2011

Trek got asked by Hayley Huntsman. Doesn't he look handsome?

You will BEE amazed!

MORE SAD NEWS!

Ron won't be here for Sunday dinner. He is in San Diego. Although how can we feel too bad for someone in San Diego, one of my favorite places.

No more wisdom....teeth!

And no chipmunk jokes either!

Hey, Grandpa knows how to fix this! We even have duck-tape in different colors!

Miracles do happen!

Do you remember Grant's old boots he purchased back in Wisconsin (1972) that were held together with duck-tape? Well, he actually purchased some new ones today with Ron and Trek's encouragement. Amazing!

P.S. PICTURE COMING SOON. can't get it to work right now.

P.S. to the first P.S. HOW DO I REMOVE a P.S.?

I'm published!

Well, anyone can be on SugarDoodle.net. I just submitted an idea under Primary 3, Lesson 3. I think I will have to be more creative to make it to the first page.

Interesting little tidbits ---

1. Do you know who wrote the verse and chapter headings in our LDS Scriptures?
2. Do you know who chose the font/style used in our scriptures?
3. Do you know why some words in the Bible are italicized?

Answers:
1. It was the brilliant Bruce R. McConkie.

2. It was President Thomas S. Monson (a member of the twelve at the time). He wanted one that could be easily read and yet not take up too much space. He actually used to be a printer and became the General Manager of the Deseret News Press before his call to become an Apostle.

3. Because the translators had to add that word or words to make that particular translation understandable in English. There were no identical word or words in the Greek or Hebrew languages.

Sad news

Lori & Craig are not going to join us on Sunday.

Why? Because Lori didn't marry an orphan and we have to share!

They are going to Idaho for a wedding and a missionary farewell.

I'm telling everyone this now so I don't have to see your disappointed faces when you hear the news. We love it best when "everyone" is here but that isn't always possible. We love all of you!

Sundays Now Look Like This...

Our ward split again last Sunday. This is the second time in 15 months. Crazy, right? We love our neighborhood!

Chuck was called as the Exec. Secretary and is working with a GREAT bishopric. He was gone from 9-4 today for meetings and church, and he went back to the church at 8 tonight. Yeah- he's pretty cool.

I'm now the 2nd counselor in Primary. Apparently I am meant to be with the kiddos...

Kinsley is sick with the croop. It's her first ever sickness. The other morning Austin went and told his parents that, "Kinzley is breathing like Darth Vader!"

What every potential missionary should know!
