Happy Father's Day to the BEST of the BEST!

 Celebrating my hunky husband, my father, and father-in-law, my brothers, and all men who respect and fulfill the role of "father". 

How is YOUR Summer Going?

 Yep, it was Austin and we are glad it was not worse as seen by the picture of the fall from the Gunther's RING doorbell system.

Arm broken in 2 places. Gratefully, it didn't damage the growth plate or he would have had to have surgery.  Cast for 6 weeks. #CovidSummer2020

Sister Lindsay Begins Her Mission: June 2020

Our missionary was set apart tonight for her service mission. It was one of the most touching experiences for the three of us.  President Livingston talked to her for a few minutes before bringing her into our room for the ordination.  He set her apart in one of the most beautiful blessings.  He blessed her and our family that we would be blessed from her service. He spoke of her relatives on the other side of the veil who would guide her during her mission. He told her she would plant seeds and bring others to Christ during her service, that her mission was for spreading the light of Christ to family and beyond.  We were touched, moved, and inspired!

After the setting apart, we drove to the temple for some pictures of our mission. We love her dearly and are thrilled for this experience Sister Lindsay is having!

Alyssa Gets New Flooring, Trim, and Paint during the Bathroom Construction

 Yes, this is really my living room.  And yes, I may have shed a few tears when I saw it.

All I did was go to work for 4-5 hours.  When I came home, this was my living room and Alyssa's carpet and trim work was gone.  I don't even have a "before" picture to show for it.  

The flooring went fast.  It is beautiful and bright, compared to the brown carpet we had, and compliments the bathroom so well!  After Dave laid the flooring and put up the trim, I filled the holes, sanded, and painted 2-3 coats to get it nice and bright!  We love the finished look!
