Busy Summer

We have a lot this summer. I don't know why. But every year it seems to be busier than the year before. EVERY saturday in July is spoken for, 2 of June's are taken and all of May and August are already gone. I think that we have shortened the summers so much that they are now basically 7 weeks. So we try to JAM everything into it that we used to do in 3 months. It's amazing that the kids get any days off at all. Not this summer they won't. They get the weekdays in June and July is spoken for. Vance wants to work this summer but I only see about 3 weeks where he can. thats not much time to earn a years worth of spending money or save for a mission. It's end of march and I'm already worried about summer. But on the other hand it is only 9 weeks away...

An acceptable year to the Lord

Our Stake has a theme this year which they call "An acceptable year to the Lord". So each month there is a sub-theme or a month theme. This month is "Making your Obediance acceptable to the Lord". so I made a "YES I AM" list and a "NO I'M NOT" list. Unfortunatly the "NO I'M NOT list is longer than the other list. I guess my point is at least now I have a list. Have you ever made a "SIN" list? It's not fun but it is actually very fulfilling. Why? Because at least once you have it on paper then you can work on it. So I challenge you to make one too.
