For the last few weeks as many around us have had the same it has rained more than ever. Our govenor has declared a disaster due to homes flooding from the ground being so saturated (yes even the one we were in had this happen) to the snake river flooding in parts. Well finally we had a day that was nice so I decided to take the kids to Jensens Grove to play. Needless to say they had to swim on the play ground literally. The water in certain areas was up to the benches of the picnic tables. The kids LOVED it and want to go back. There are also pictures of Johnathon and Kyra skateboarding or at least attempting to. With all the things that have been happening to our family lately and all the trials from Dylan,Katie, the house rob and his sister and everything else. I keep thinking these are signs of the times. Am I ready to meet the Lord? Can I honestly stand before him and be happy. I am so grateful for the power of the priesthood (I really miss it in my home) and the teachings of forgiveness, repentance and the joy I feel from knowing that there is a way. I know our Heavenly Father loves us and is just waiting for us to be ready to come to him. Sometimes I ask why and please don't give me anymore trials and stress I just can't handle it, than I have to humble myself and remember he will only give us what we can handle. And blessing come from those trials,(i'm still waiting for that part). Either way I am thankful that I have my family we may struggle and may not always get along but they are always there when needed most.
