PB&J

I LOVE peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. They are quite delicious and bring me much joy in my life. Especially on mom's bread, which I rarely get anymore, but that's beside the point....

At Family Home Evening tonight I gained a rather interesting insight. The teacher was talking about how following principles gets us blessings. He wrote "P=B" on the board and I automatically thought of Peanut Butter (yum). 

With just a little more thought I finished up the PB&J analogy... By following Principles (P) we get Blessings (B) which brings us Joy (J).  Yeah for PB&J!!!!

Let Freedom Ring!

I had a fabulous time in Richfield for the Fourth of July and other festivities. My top ten:

10. Creating/Playing "Miss Richfield Bingo" with Sonja (May the School for Invisible Children always thrive and may their newly adopted grandparents continue to appear to talk to themselves without recourse.) I also think one of my favorite parts when was Mom threatened to separate us like we were in primary again. 

9. Picking cherries for cherry pie....so good.

 

8. Watching Emily beat her record (and the swimming pool's (which she set)...and the high school's) in the breastroke.

7. Watching Mom and Dad in the "Children's" parade.

6. The 4th of July parade with my friends and family; coke geysers; all the licorice flavored salt water taffys...and the festivities in the park after!

5. Fireworks!

4. Hanging out with my friend Amber!

3. Elissa's baptism

2. Navajo Tacos made by real Navajos. Need I say more?

1. Spending time in a country that I love, in a state that I love, with friends and family that I love. Let Freedom Ring!
