A Most Glorious Event

Want to see something fantastic? Take a look at my new grandbaby!

Heidelbeere's first child. She did pretty good for the first time, eh? One cute little girl.

The happy Mom. . . . .

The proud Dad!

A miracle, very nice indeed.

Sitting in her great-grandmother's lap. Thanks to the parents for making these photos available so quickly!

Sunday Scripture

And blessed are they who shall seek to bring forth my Zion at that day, for they shall have the gift and the power of the Holy Ghost; and if they endure until the end they shall be lifted up at the last day, and shall be saved in the everlasting kingdom of the Lamb; and whoso shall publish peace, yea, tidings of great joy, how beautiful upon the mountains shall they be.
I Nephi 13:37



Big Snow

Well, winter is finally here and it came in a big way. The storm started last Tuesday night and kept up until Thursday. These pictures are from Wednesday mid-morning.

I got stuck in the end of the drive-way, where the plow had turned the snow into our drive=way. They won't let you just shovel it back out into the street. How is that fair? Anyway, I didn't hit the pile hard enough going thru it and got stuck. Fortunately there were those to help push me out. School had been cancelled Wednesday so I got some help.


Couple of things around the yard, with snow piled deep. We got about 11 inches by mid-morning Wednesday. Then the snow quit falling quite so hard.

So after all the work was done and the drive-way, deck and steps were clear: Hot Chocolate and Cookies!! Yay!! 'Course, we had to make the cookies first but nobody minded that. Some times its a contest around here to get them baked before the dough gets all snitched away. Popular stuff!

Sunday Scriptures

And now I say unto you, who shall declare his generation? Behold, I say unto you, that when his soul has been made an offering for sin he shall see his seed. And now what say ye? And who shall be his seed? Behold I say unto you, that whosoever has heard the words of the prophets, yea all the holy prophets who have prophesied concerning the coming of the Lord - I say unto you, that all those who have hearkened unto their words, and believed that the Lord would redeem his people, and have looked forward to that day for a remission pf their sins, I Say unto you, that these are his seed, or they are the heirs of the kingdom of God. For these are they whose sins he has borne; these are they for whom he has died, to redeem them from their transgressions. And now, are they not his seed? Yea, and are not the prophets, ever one that has opened his mouth to prophesy, that has not fallen into transgression, I mean all the holy prophets ever since the world began? I say unto you that they are his seed. And these are they who have published peace, who have brought good tidings of good, who have published salvation; and said unto Zion: thy God reigneth?
Mosiah 15:10-14
