Live Unto The Lord

FEBRUARY 19, 2017

Hello Missionary Caden! 

Did you get your Valentine? I hope so, it was probably late, but better late than never, right???

Anyway, I hope your week was good. 

I gave a lesson in Relief Society today on the Pioneer Heritage. Crazy thing that the teacher was going out of town and had text many of the ladies in the ward. No one had responded so by the next day, I text back and said I would help her and told her to send me the info for what lesson. She sent it and I looked it up and it was on the pioneer heritage. i felt like Heavenly Father really wants me to appreciate my ancestors and to feel the connection. :)

I was happy to do it. I turned out good. I just love when the spirit is really strong and just fills the room. I am so grateful for those blessings.

So, right now I am on call for work. I lost 2 nurses this month and last and then the nurse that was covering for this area had her daughter go into emergency surgery in Cedar city so she had to leave, so that left pretty much only me. so I am feeling pretty anxious but I asked Heavenly Father to help me be ok. And if it wasn't too much, to keep all the patients safe and good for the whole time I'm on call. Hee Hee. But really.

Anyway, Zac, Megan and cousins are downstairs watching Harry Potter. I think I'm going to go to bed here soon. Tomorrow is a Holiday so I'm not sure if you will be able to email. So maybe we will get a letter from you....

My sisters, Mom and Amy went to Time Out For Women this weekend. It was awesome. 2 days of feeling the spirit. I LOVE the speakers and music artists. They did such an amazing job. I'd love to be part of that someday. We gave them our names to volunteer for next year. So many amazing messages, Live unto the lord, smile, look up, give compliments!!! So many, I wrote a novel with my notes..... I included a pic. 

I love you buddy! I'm sure you know that Elaina put her mission papers in this week. I cant wait to see where she will go. You are such an amazing example to all of us. I hope you are doing good. Keep smiling! It's contagious!!!!!

Love you, Love you!

Love Mom

Time Flys Fast!

June 25, 2017 Hey buddy!!! How are you? Hows the weather been? Still crazy rainy? It's been way hot here. I loved your video of the rain. That was crazy sauce.  This week has been good. Not too crazy, just working and spending time with Dad as much as I can. Today is our 25th Anniversary, crazy! Life really goes by so fast.  We are watching the drum corps right now. Cool but they will get better with time. It's still really early in the season.  We had a way long trek meeting today but really feel like the Lord is guiding us and we have so many amazing people who are helping to plan it. It was pretty cool last night when I was praying in my closet, I prayed that my ancestors will help plan trek and help make sure that everything goes well. I felt the room grow with people. My closet seemed to no longer have walls and I could feel the expansiveness of all our ancestors pulling for us. There are so many. Not just a few but people beyond count, I felt like ...

July 16 2017 WOWZERS!!!! I can't believe you will have been on a mission for 1 whole year on the 20th........ CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! This world is flying by so fast and I can't even keep up. I can't believe we are already going to be going on trek in 10 days. Any you have been gone almost 365 days.. WHAT... Well, I can't wait to hear all about your new opportunities. I pray you are looking to the Lord to help you do everything. I was thinking about that today and it's something I'm going to share with they youth on Trek. It is easy to get so overwhelmed with everything that is coming at you and all the responsibility that seems to pile up. Sometimes I just want to go in my closet and cry. I think, no way, I can't do one more thing. And then guess what? I pray to My Father in Heaven and somehow he makes things work out. I pray for strength to meet the challenges and I pray for peace to know I can do this. I've imagined this week as being called to...

Testimony of Trek

August 6 2017 Hello Buddy!!! Wow, these weeks are flying by so fast!!! I started writing my Trek book and it's about 6 pages now and I am only on the first trekking day. Ha Ha. Ya, probably too much details that I am putting into it but I will give you a quicker version.  I had already told you how we were setting it all up for gear drop off and how we were getting everyone to the stake center that morning. Well, the night before I heard the rain and thunder...... oh man. I went into my closet to pray that I know Heavenly Father needs us to learn something on trek but I did ask if it be his will would he temper the weather. Ha Ha, here I am asking for the weather not to be too hot and also not to be rainy.  So at drop off we had many youth that didn't show up and ended up not coming and some that said they will show up in the morning. We also had a Ma and Pa decide not to come and didn't tell us. We didn't know until the night before we left. WOW. It's...
