David called me tonight to let me know that Jonathon Mendoza, his step son, was now a Elder. He will be leaving on a Mission to the Madagascar Antananarivo Mission, Aug 16, 2017
Jonathon was asked who he would like to ordain him a Elder? His reply was David....
My heart was filled with warmth and joy. This Mission will be good for David, Marisol and Jonathon.

Prescott High Seminary....Jodie...
2017
While Jodie attended Prescott High in Arizona, her Seminary class created a time capsol. They wrote their testimonies on gold colored foil, and put them into book form, like the gold plates from the Book of Mormon. Jodie's testimony was included in this book.
This month my Grandson Noah Hone's Seminary class dug up the time capsol, Someone recorded it and put it on Facebook....That was real neat to see.... and knowing that my family was part of it all.

The Singing Pine Tree....
March 14 2018
In a corner of my back yard is a Singing Pine Tree.
Its small compared to normal size pine trees. What makes it so unque is that its full of birds. Sparrows, house fenches, and two beautiful gray doves, who got caught in a bad storm took refuge in the bottom part of the tree, and I guess decided to make it home.
The birds fly between my tree and the Grua's tree which is very close by, and just over the fence.. When they are all there and feeling happy my tree sings and sings loudly..... Makes me happy!....

Its The Turkeys Road...
The road going to the area of my home is called Willow Street. Today three Turkeys think they own it...
On my way home from Walmart, Three Turkeys were on the road. The two largest black Turkeys were standing on the side of the road as if they were waiting to cross. I drove very slowly, almost at a stop, as I didn't want to hit them... then they decided to attacked my car.
As they lunged their bodies at my car I saw one of their heads popping up and down, looking into my front passenger window. That was a very interesting experience to have a turkey looking at me....disapprovingly...
I had at least two cars behind me... As I pulled slowly away I saw they were greeted in the same way.
I really do enjoy living here in Grantsville, its a Rural area, where you can have some farm animals. In this area there are horses, cows, chickens, turkeys, sheep, goats, and pigs, and some buffaloe. A few lamas for protecting the sheep.
And of course a few dear that come down from the mountains in the winter. We even had a Cougar or Bobcat one spring. We have Pheasants, Quails, and have had Bald Eagles. I love the Kill Dear birds and the song they sing.... We have so much that I have not mentioned. Beauty is every where to enjoy...

Pneumonia...
Jan 25 2018
Not a nice way to start out the new year... I thought I had a bad cold, and was glad it was not the flue, as the flue is real bad this year. About fifty folks have died so far... adults and children.
I have had a very hard time breathing. I have asma, and now COPD. After about a week and half, I went to see the doctor as I had a rattle in my chest that was not going away. She told me I had Pneumonia..That combination does not help to breath.... Dr Rebecca wanted to put me in the hospital, I said if I behaved myself could I just stay home... she gave me a prescription to help to get over it.
One Sunday morning I when I woke up I realized I was panting for breath. I couldn't breath very well. I called Bro. Grua, my neighbor, to see if he could give me a Priesthood blessing. He did so, and by afternoon I was breathing almost normal.
Two weeks later I still had a rattle in my chest, I called the Dr. office, they suggested I come in and see the Dr as soon as I could, which they had a opening on Monday. However it was with Levi the other Dr as Rebecca, my Dr was not working on Mondays. I was told I still had Pneumonia. He gave me a new antibiotic...I had reaction to it...My good foot, swelled up and became extremely painful, to the point that I could hardly put any pressure on it to walk. I asked each of my children to keep me in their prayers, as I really needed help. I soon received a phone call from Marilyn Grua, She and her husband was outside my front door, they came to give me a blessing. leaning over a walking cart to help me take pressure off my foot, I opened the front door, surprised and grateful to see them. One of my kids, Jennifer, in Arizona, had called them... Bro. Grua gave me another Priesthood blessing, by the early afternoon the next day, I was walking on my foot. Pain had eased enough for me to walk, and kept getting better.
I stopped taking the meds, called the Dr. office and reported my reaction. Dr Levi ordered another new antibiotic. I took three pills, and had another reaction, this time my throat burned badly, with gas coming up and down. I stopped taking it after 3 pills. even drinking plain water the next day burned my throat all the way down. I don't need the newest up to date meds. the old ones that work without problems, work just fine for me.
I have had Pneumonia for six weeks... I will be so glad when I am well, and very thankful for the power of the Priesthood, and that its not the flue.

Prophet Thomas S. Monson...
3 January 2018
Our Prophet, Thomas S. Monson, passed away last night. He will be greatly missed by me. I was surprised that he had been called as a Bishop at the age of 22, and a aposel, one of the twelve, at the age of 36.
A Great man, and Wonderful gift of humor, a caregiver for everyone forever.

Reviewing year 2017...
Dec 31, 2017
This has been a full year for me. I take a deep breath and wonder what this new year starting tomorrow will bring.
I have had two brothers leave this earth, Ivan H Brimhall Died March 16, 2017 in SLC, which was kind of expected. And Cecil Robert Brimhall (Bob) Died July 24, 2017 in Ogden, which was a surprise to me...how ever I hear that both had colon cancer.
I have only one brother living, Verl Brimhall. Its a wired feeling to feel that you don't have any of your family left.....soon it will be just me.....maybe...
I have two additions to my family, two Great Grand Children. Both are from Launie's family. Ivie had a boy, in Idaho. and Sharlyn had a Girl, in Arizona.
My daughter Pauli had a miscarriage this week, it was hard on all of us. Pauli was about three months along. started a day or two before Christmas.
I was filled with a wonderful surprise a few months ago of learning that Terry and Cathy Walker, Lynn's brother, were called to work in the Provo Temple. What a wonderful blessing for them and their family. I love to watch the change it is causing for Terry.
Now that is wonderful words! If you knew about Terry and his life, and see how he has and is changing, the heavens couldn't keep the angels from singing.
I was called to work in Young Women's in my ward. To help with the Personal Progress program.
I say MIA and every body looks at me like what is that? Time has changed since I or my girls were in it. We have 60 plus girls, and I don't know what I am doing....My helper who is alot younger, was just called to be a Beehive teacher.
People worry that I am staying in the house all the time. Which I am keeping busy...I have firends that keep me moving, Penny took me and LaDean on her vacation. Then Terry and Cathy took me to Manti....We were to go to the Temple, but found it closed when we got there. The next day we went to the Payson Temple, which is Beyond Beautiful...
I am in a Card group of nine ladies, which meet on Mondays, for about two to three hrs. playing "Hand and Foot". we meet at a different house, have a light lunch and play cards.
I also am part of a "Lunch Bunch" that meets the first Thursday of each month at noon at a restaurant for visiting and getting to know each other better.
I also vist teach five other sisters, My companion is Marilyn Grua, who lives next door.
