Counting Blessings

 

We were able to meet our youngest grandchild in September. Katie is our eighth grandchild and third granddaughter.

Two grandchildren were born during the time we would have been on a mission in England. We were here to meet them both.

God gave me the strength to make a trip to Utah.

We were protected during our travels. On the day we drove to Utah there was a tornado that touched down in northern Utah. Our son warned us about the tornado warning, and we stopped in Tremonton and waited for the storm to pass.

While in Utah we spent time with our son and his family, my siblings, and Paul’s sister and husband.

We went to Temple Square, walked around it, toured the new visitor centers and listened to an organ recital at the Tabernacle.

We did not get sick during our trip to Utah!

My sister Janice sent us home with produce from her garden.

I finished my acorn quilt, and it is now hanging in the basement stairwell.

My cancer treatments continue to be effective, and I was blessed to celebrate another birthday.

We were able to watch every session of General Conference from the comfort of our own house.

We were able to attend an endowment session in the temple this week.
