Small and Simple Things

Today we had the familiar face of  Sydnee Inman  (now married) in our midst as they were down looking for possible places to live when they move back to Arizona the beginning of next year! Mamma  Rachael Bonnell Inman  couldn't resist doing a little happy dance! We were also able to enjoy the familiar faces of our recently released Primary presidency;  Linda Hill ,  Jennifer Hammond , and Cherice Rigby. There were lots of changes last week and I don't remember them all but I remember  Jennifer Hammond  is our new RS Presidency secretary as she was sitting up front! Welcome sisters! We hope your transition will be a smooth one!" Have I done any good in the world today? Have I helped anyone in need? Have I cheered up the sad and made someone feel glad?

Personal Revelation

I was late arriving today but I understand Sister Kristin Collins daughter, recently returned from her mission in Brazil, was with us as was Sister Regina Pangerl's daughter.    Welcome! Welcome!

Preparing for General Conference

I don't know if anyone else has noticed this but it seems like every week we have new sisters joining us. We are so blessed! Today is no exception and since I was gone last week, I will introduce a couple.  Megan Asper has recently moved in with her husband Kendall and their five children. She has bookend boys ages 9 and 1 with three little girls ages 8, 6, and 3 in between. Megan and Kendall grew up in Utah but are coming to us from Louisiana where Kendall completed his anesthesia residency.  Meg Bird has also moved in with her husband and their cute little Tanner who will turn 2 in October (love his name!:). They are expecting their second little one in February. Meg's husband completed his masters in Oklahoma and is now working as a Financial Advisor.  We are also blessed to have Jennifer Fifield's mom, Wendy Downs, with us. I wasn't able to visit much with her today so make sure you reach out to get to know her! Today our discussion centered around preparin...
