Women's Broadcast

We were blessed to hear a powerful message from President Uchtdorf using the forget-me-not flower as a symbol of 1. be patient with yourself 2. know the difference between good and foolish sacrifices 3. be happy now 4. Know the whys of the gospel 5. Know that the Lord loves you!
We all needed this super advice given so well. He just nailed his great message and seems to understand women.

We had a glorious time with all eight children and 29 grandchildren gathered for Michael and Annette's wedding. We also spent the morning for a memorial for Malcolm's Mom, Liz who passed away in May. We so enjoyed all of our family being together for a few days. We had Todd and Billie's Family, Russell and Rajie, Michael and one of his boys, Val, Don and their children at our home. Amanda had Amy's family at her home and Dan stayed with Phillippi's in Vacaville. Erik, Liza and Kathi booked a hotel. Brian and Deb drove up for the day. We love these children and grandchildren so much and love having them with us!!1
