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...

Terry and Cathy Walker...

Aug 12, 2017

What a Very Special Surprise for me today!
Terry, Lynn's brother, and Cathy came for a visit today.  They had some Very Special Exciting News for me...
Terry and Cathy have been called to be Temple Workers... in the Provo Temple, the one that is close to BYU.   Terry will be working at the Vale. which is very special.

What a Special Blessing....I never dreamed Terry would be called to this position.
The Lord knows his children, and their hearts...even when they fight against the pricks, or what they know is right.

Not only will this bless Terry and Cathy, but also their family, and any body elts who has any connection to Terry.

They will be starting next Thursday.....Both their Bishop, and Stake President felt this was the right call for Terry and Cathy at this time....

I am so Excited for both of them.  Lynn and I went through the Temple with them when they went through for the first time.....Cathy was a convert,  she was not a member of the church when they were married.  She is so excited to see the change that has come to Terry's heart.

Another piece of news is there is no cancer found in Terry's body now.... it is gone...
