Sunday Post, Monday Morning Edition

I am FAILING at this posting everyday thing. I am going to try and keep up - but we will see. We have out of town guests here for the wedding, my niece's friend Tracy and her husband Aaron. They were total strangers to us when they showed up at our front door to sleep in our "junk room" - but now, we are proud to call them our friends. I can't even begin to describe how beautiful Tracy is - on the inside as well as the outside. She is so pretty that you want to not like her but she is so kind and sweet that you have to. Tracy is from Zimbabwe but met her husband while studying at BYU. They have amazing stories of Africa that have kept us all wanting more.

Today (Sunday) was our Primary Program at church. I cried during the whole thing. From the moment they began with I Am A Child of God until the closing song there were tears streaming down my face. The closing song was "If the Savior Stood Beside Me" - that song should be in the Hymn Books. Everyone needs to sing that song! So, I was bawling the whole time and Alan was giggling. He loves seeing all of the kids waving to their parents and fidgeting, giving their teachers a hard time. He especially loves when they come up to the microphone and talk real loud or exhale into the mic - his favorite this time was the little boy that kept saying "what?" to the Primary President who was trying to feed him his line.

This morning (Monday) I will take the kids to school and then I am off to the wedding site to start cooking. Happy Monday everyone!
