A Dusting of the Cobwebs....

welcome to my blog!
...allow me a brief introduction...

In a reacent conversation with my daughter, her questions were why I, and her Dad were so quiet about our lifes? Meaning writing or telling about our own personal historys.

I didn't think there was anything important to write about. As I was just a normal person, getting up in the morning and getting the day started, getting kids off to school, or meeting schedules of the whole family, cleaning house, and landry. Keeping little ones busy, and changing diapers, comming home fixing dinner, helping with homework, putting kids to bed, watch some news, go to bed. And then do it all over again the next day. Then some days was teaching lessons in Primary, RS, MIA, Sundayschool, cub scouts, or helping at schools, ect. Family home evening, Visiting teaching, and even some Home teaching and being the family schaefer. most of the time we had one car, 6 kids, one working husband. Oh yes, the multi years of music lessons, and baseball teams, coaching, and even one major jumproap champion, for one daughter.

We had trials too. some were very hard, just thinking about a single memory of losing our son, brings tears. But we are told that this life is to meet trials, and how we handle them will be for our own eternal growth.

A very wise Stake President, President Alred, once said "We are here to be schooled in the principles of eternity. We will work by the sweat of our brow, to work our way through this life... But remember we are here to be schooled in the principles of eternity."

So, I welcome you to my blog. Please feel free to stay and go as you please, and wander where you wish. And, as always, feel comfortable in sharing those stories that you may feel are just "an every day" thing as well...

A Priesthood Blessing....

During this last week I requested a Priesthood blessing from my Home teacher, Bro Rilley.  He also asked Bro Trapp to come.

I had asked for a Priesthood blessing because a man by the name of Dennis, Tony Walker's friend, had come to my house.  When he found me not at home, he went over to the Grua's home and started asking questions.  I was not comfortable that they were coming to my home after Lynn had died.  Trying to get me to sell to them a piece of property that belongs to Troy, and had accidentally been put into Lynn and Judys  name, Lynn sister.  both were trustees of their fathers estate.  When Lynn died it came to me.

The Blessing Bro Rilley gave me was very special.  As he spoke I could feel a sweetness present.  It was like it was at the time Lynn had passed.  Just sweetness filling the air.   I believe that someone from the other side of the vale was present, and stayed in my home through the night, being with me and  comfort to me.  It reminded me of the feelings that were present when Lynn passed.

When I told Cory Grua, (our Stake Patriarch ) about this experience, he said Angels were present.
