1,000 peices and two months later...

We finished the Walter Wick puzzle we started at Christmas!!

I know, I know! I can barely believe that we didn't lose any pieces either! And can I just say that this puzzle was very, very, very, very hard.

Robert and I did it mostly by ourselves. The kids tried to get in on the action for the last pieces, but is that really very fair? I don't think so. I really enjoyed the time Robert and I spent together on this puzzle. I love you, babe!

*******************************************

Family Home Evening was overall a great experience last night! We talked about the Abrahamic Covenant and the kids were more receptive than I thought they would be. I am sure the younger kids understood a little less than the older kids did, but it was a timely topic for the older kids. Stephanie has her recommend for her Patriarchal Blessing and just needs to make an appointment with the stake Patriarch. I bore my testimony and gave all the kids the opportunity to do the same. Barrett wanted to bare his testimony and was a bit shy to do so. I told him I would help him. He ended up doing it himself, and this is what he said:

"I want to bare my testimony, I know Jesus Christ is my Savior and my Redeemer."

Wow.

Then he mentioned to me that it was his first time to bare his testimony.

Double wow. I am so glad that I was there.

Parker bore his testimony too. I don't remember everything he said, but I do remember that he mentioned how thankful he is to hold the Priesthood.

Wow again.

So it was a good Family Home Evening.

We were blessed to have The Holy Spirit with us in our home.

We really needed that.
