This week went by so fast! It seems it was just conference yesterday, and today we were at church, doing the practice for our Primary Sacrament Meeting Presentation, which is in 2 weeks! The children sing beautifully! This week, Sister Foy and I scanned and finished the pages for the records in the office, and I went on some ministering appointments a couple of mornings. Steve and I also planned our Activity Days topic for next week, so we are prepared. We have been re-listening to conference all week too, and I;m highlighting all of the references to our Savior in the Book of Mormon as I read it this time, as suggested by our Prophet. I found over 90 references in just the first 19 chapters of 1 Nephi! Another reason we should read it every day, is to remember Our Savior, and what He has done for us.
We also have some visitors from UT this week, the Rasmussen's. They were here before, Brother Rasmussen is an Agriculture expert and shared some ideas about better crop production etc. We had them over for dinner this week too. Nice couple! Saturday, Steve and I ventured out alone, and didn't even get lost!! (Thank you, GPS!) We went to Woolsthorpe, the birthplace of Sir Isaac Newton. We saw the descendant apple tree from the original one, that dropped an apple down near younger Newton, helping him to conclude his thoughts on gravity. A very interesting, odd man. He was a great thinker! The place was fascinating though, and in a very beautiful part of the country. The Foys were preparing for their daughter, husband and 5 children who came Sunday night to visit for the week. Their 16 yr. old grand daughter is staying in our spare room nights, so she has a better chance of sleeping. :) Steve and I will be working together this week, while the Foys are going on holiday with their sweet family.
