Here I am Blogging again!!! I just love to use that weird word, BLOG!! Another week has flown by at lightening speed. Barton gave another fabulous gospel doctorine lesson today on Joshua! He even had two props/object lesson things that he used. One was a homemade snare that he made to illustrate that satan has snares that he can trap us in. The other was a single sheet of paper and a hymn book. He asked someone to put the book on the edge of the paper to hold and support the book. Of course you have to roll the paper up to make it possible. He was illustrating Joshua supporting the children of Israel. Fun and learning for all who attended his class.

I had a "Stampin' Up" party last week. Had about 8 people come to my party. We made two cards and ordered the stuff that we wanted. Someday when I get time I will sit down and make some cards with my stamps. It's a fun little hobby when you have time.

The boys are counting down till when school is out (June 7th is the last day). They're anxious for summer. Both Nathan and Kempton have scout camps they will attend and hopefully we can take a trip to Omaha and Kansas City around July 4th.

We worked on some more landscaping this weekend and what a job that is. We are hiring someone to help us with part of it so it will all flow together nicely and things will be planted to get the right amout of sun and water. I meet the landscaper next Saturday at the nursery to pick out all my plants. I'm excited to have it coming together.

Barton and the 3 big boys will go on the father and son campout this coming Friday and Saturday. Tonight Justin was talking about what they could have for dinner on Friday night. It was so funny to hear him thinking out loud. What he wanted the most was barbecue baked beans!

Our family is looking forward to a short Nauvoo trip May 19-20. We are staying one night in some fun cabins. Take a peek at them, they are really quite something to read about and see where they came from. The website is: nauvoologcabins.com.
