Day 277

Happy Memorial Day weekend everyone!  I am so thankful for the brave men and women who fight everyday to keep this country free. 

It was a beautiful Sunday today and I am thankful for all of the happy moments I enjoyed.  Church was wonderful today.  We heard from a young man who is going to Mozambique and Angola on his mission...what a wonderful thing to get to teach others about the Gospel of Jesus Christ for 2 years!  It really won't be long until Joel and Connor head out on their adventure!

I got to share with the women's organization about family history and the Family History Center near us.  I am so thankful that I get to volunteer there and help others find family members!  It is a pretty neat place and so fun to help people connect to their ancestors.

After church, we grilled some hot dogs and had a very nice family lunch around the dinner table.  We are going to try to do that more often...it is so pleasant to be together as a family and talk about what each child learned at church that day.

Of COURSE there was the Sunday nap.....this time my kitty, Sadie, snuggled in under the blankets up against me.  I must say, having a fluffy pillow is a great way to take a nap!

Our home teachers came over and gave me a beautiful blessing.  I am so grateful to have them.  Hoping my arm heals soon, but I have a wonderful blessing to sustain me through this week until my next X-ray....fingers crossed it all works out!

We went to Olive Garden with my parents for dinner tonight.  We haven't been there in forever!  We loved it!  On the way home, Connor asked me if he could play on our tablet.  In a very low mommy voice a moment after asking he said, "No it's time for bed."  David and I got a good laugh out of that.  At least he knew what the answer would be!

I got to talk with some of the family back in Louisiana tonight.  It was great catching up and so nice to hear what everyone is doing out there.  We miss it!

Well, that is my Sunday.  The sun was shining today and it was a day full of happy moments.  We are off on an adventure tomorrow and I am hoping to find some fun filled family happy moments throughout the day!  Have a great night all and blog you around this time tomorrow night!
