Laundry Update

Last winter I wrote a little bit about how much I struggle with laundry and keeping up with it.  Well, it took me a while Chaney, but the kids do their own laundry now!  And it is SO wonderful!  I really don't know why I hung on to doing it myself for so long.  We now have a schedule.  Boys do their laundry on Tuesdays, Mom and Dad on Wednesdays, and girls on Thursdays.  I do help the two youngest a little bit.  But that's really pretty easy.  And we no longer have the piles of laundry.  No more searching for clothes every morning.  No more guilt!!!  It is glorious!

Let's Try This Again

I sort of re-discovered my neglected blog this weekend, and would like to start writing again in the mornings.  I'm really thankful to have what I do have written.

This weekend was the 187th Semi-Annual General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  And it was wonderful.  Stephen got to go with his friend to the Saturday afternoon and Priesthood sessions.

I loved so many different talks.  Right now, one of my very favorites is Elder Anderson's.  He was the last speaker on Sunday afternoon, and had a little extra time and so he shared a little extra.  He shared part of a message Elder Hales had prepared, just in case he was able to attend.  Elder Hales actually passed away at 12:15 that afternoon, and it was wonderful to hear his last words to the church.
