We have had a good week, Saturday we
spent the day at Lagoon, our annual Frightmares excursion. It was as
fun as ever. Stefanie invited Taelor, so we spent the first half of the
day hanging out with them and hitting all the good ones... Colossus, Wicked,
Tidal Wave, The Bat, Wooden Roller Coaster, Samarai, Rocket... After
lunch Dad and I parted ways with the girls and went through the haunted
houses and saw a couple of shows. My favorite is the chain saw zombies,
they are great! What a fun day, we love Lagoon. Here is a picture...haha
Lehi's
region cross country meet was on Wednesday, the girls did GREAT! They
came in 3rd and are headed to State. None of
the boys are going to State, but
their top two finishers did well. The State meet is Wednesday at Sugar House
Park. Dad is excited and hoping his team will do well, although his top
runner has State Cup the same day. The kid has a chance to finish in
the top ten in cross country, so he has a big decision to make! This is
an exciting week.
So Dad's achilles heel
injury has been flaring up lately and giving him some trouble. It has
bothered him for over two years, but lately it has been getting a little
worse. When our home teachers came
over this evening, Dad asked for a blessing. It was great, Dad was told
in the blessing that Heavenly Father wants him to be healthy and whole,
and that he should seek medical attention to get it taken care of. He
was promised a full and complete recovery. It was very comforting and
the spirit was very strong. We are so thankful for the priesthood! And
we are thankful for dedicated, worthy home teachers, what a blessing
they are to us! We love them. So we will be doing some research and
finding a doctor to visit very soon. Please keep him in your prayers.
So
that is our week! We hope you are
healthy, safe and happy! And we hope you are finding good people to
teach. We loved your statement last week that you are not going to base
your success on the number of baptisms, only by how hard you work, that
is your gift to the Lord as you serve your mission. That is absolutely
correct, and we admire your awesome, amazing attitude. We love you so
much!
Love, Mom, Dad, Stefanie
