Sunday and Such

Today was a nice Sunday. Garrett's parents came out to go to church with us. So we got up early and had our traditional Sunday morning pancakes and got ready to go. Sacrament was very uplifting! We got to enjoy to farewell talks of two Elders leaving for the MTC this week. Both young men are converts to the church, and the only members in their families. What faith and spirit those two Elders have. It was a blessing to listen to them bare their sincere testimonies. We left church after the long sacrament meeting and enjoyed sandwiches and brownies at home and watched "An Unlikely Mormon". Its the story of the conversion of Glenn Beck. Also, very inspirational. Again, a lot I can relate to, being a convert and the only member in my family-as he is. All in all, it was a spiritually uplifting day. Just what I needed.

And some "sad news"...after a few anxious days, we learned we are not expecting a baby...so we keep thanking Heavenly Father for the many blessings we already have and sincerely pray that He sees that we are blessed with a baby in His time-which I hope is on our timeline also! We ask for continued prayers!

Saturday was also a GREAT day! We got to see some friends which is always nice. And I got to volunteer at a great event! Catholic Charities-the agency I work for-put on a free even for the community that provided help with utility bills, legal advice, free food, and lots of other services. I was able to help out all day at the welcome table, passing out everything to people as they came in. It was nice to give back and made me that much more thankful for all of my many blessings.
