Jan. week 4 - redemption cometh in and through the Holy Messiah

Cleaned out and organized a cabinet

Kitty!

They LOVE these dump trucks



And he loves his dog

Building trains in the sunshine


FANTASTIC BOOK!
Mike Mulligan, The Little House, Katy and the Big Snow, and Mable the Cable Car, 
all by Virginia Lee Burton.
I highly recommend this book for even extremely young boys, especially those interested in motors and wheels and 'things that go'. The pictures are beautiful and the stories are deep and meaningful.

Hiking in the snow this week

The dog loves his mountain



Got dolled up for our date


We went out to eat at our favorite restaurant in Brigham City: El Torro Viejo

...while the kids had tons of fun with Grandma and Grandpa and this electric keyboard (especially Troy)

Jade enjoyed showing Grandpa how she can read

Troy has a gift for learning songs by ear and remembering them.  He has played the piano every day for several months - he LOVES this new keyboard.

Three little kids are out playing the snow somewhere - can you find them?

"Cowgirls don't cry. JADE" 
We loved this cup from the Grovers, but finally had to part with it after many cracks. 
Pictures last forever, though ;)

Spaghetti face!

Sheetrock in the stairwell! Woo hoo!

I went to a wonderfully uplifting Relief Society Conference.
Monday night we hadn't seen our new kitty for several hours and were very worried she had got outside and run off.  Jade and Troy were in tears.  Jade said we just needed to pray and we would find her.  We prayed, and prayed again at dinner, and prayed again at the beginning of Family Home Evening, and as soon as we said "Amen" and opened our eyes, there she was standing next to the dog in the middle of the front room.  Prayers are answered (sometimes it just takes two or three :)

Scripture (Troy's choice): 2 Nephi 2:6 "Wherefore, redemption cometh in and through the Holy Messiah for He is full of grace and truth."
