Full weekend...

Cash had a track meet on Thursday at Lone Peak. I tried to get a few screenshots from a video but the pictures are a little blurry. Cash won the 100 meter dash! He really can run so fast. He also got a very handsome haircut and he looks much older. Sure love him!

I enjoy picking up the the boys from school on Fridays, I can't say that enough. It was windy but we still enjoyed playing outside. Colby got his kite up, and did a great job of maneuvering it around trees and houses. It was fun to watch. We had beef enchiladas which got some thumbs up. I made a sugar free dessert which got a few thumbs down! Ha Ha! 

Yes, Grahm took all these pictures! 

It's the beginning of Spring sports. Mark is coaching Grahm's soccer team. Grahm did a good job as goalie!

Ruby liked coming to Grahm's game and getting a tummy rub from Colbs!

Grey's soccer game was next. He never gives up and is fast!

Colby is playing flag football. I think he had a lot of fun. 

Last but not least was Grahm's game. He enjoyed trying flag football. He fiddled with the mouth guard the entire time! It takes a bit to get use to them. He was sad a few times when he didn't make a play. I told him that as long as he keeps trying it was okay and nobody's perfect. To which he replied, "Jesus was perfect." I love Grahm so much. So I know what I'll be on Saturday for a fews weeks and there's nothing I rather be doing that cheering on my grandson's! I love them all even if they are growing up too fast.

And for good measure I'll add a few pictures from my walks. We live in such a beautiful place. 

ThrowBack Thursday ~ Federer Family...

Long time ago... love my brothers and sister. Kenny, Roseanne, Marion, Ern, Lloyd, me, and Les. My Mom made my frilly dress.

Confidence...

President Nelson attended the last session of conference. His talk was recorded and he mentioned that his eyesight is fading. He's in his 101st year so I was just happy to see him. At the conclusion of the conference a brother brought President Nelson's wheelchair near him. He asked him to wait. He then looked around the Conference Center and smiled at those in attendance. He also stood and shook hands with all the Twelve and then motioned for the choir directors, and shook their hands also. 

I'm so grateful for his inspired words. 

"When I speak of having confidence before God, I am referring to having confidence in approaching God right now! I am referring to praying with confidence that Heavenly Father hears us. That He understands our needs better than we do. I am referring to having confidence that He loves us more than we can comprehend. That He sends angels to be with us and with those we love. I am referring to having confidence that He yearns to help each of us reach our highest potential."

"As we diligently seek to have charity and virtue fill our lives, our confidence in approaching God will increase. I invite you to take intentional steps, to grow in your confidence before the Lord. Then, as we go to our Heavenly Father, with increasing confidence, we will be filled with more joy, and our faith in Jesus Christ will increase. We will begin to experience spiritual power that exceeds our greatest hopes."

"The Lord said charity and virtue open the way to having confidence before God (Doctrine and Covenants 121:45)."

President Nelson announced locations of 15 new temples to be constructed, in:
Reynosa, Mexico
Chorrillos, Peru
Rivera, Uruguay
Campo Grande, Brazil
Porto, Portugal
Uyo, Nigeria

Nouméa, New Caledonia

ThrowBack Thursday ~ Make a wish...

Beautiful Tiffani had lots of help blowing out her candles. The cake Colby made will always be one of my favorites. The frosting was all his idea. Colby did a great job.

Happy Birthday to our Tiffani!

Always thankful...

Always thankful for Tim's woodworking brilliance. He made a guitar for goodness sake! Always thankful to hear Mark play a few songs.

Always thankful for Grandma Days.

Always thankful to see Grey and Grahm having fun with the "vintage" Fisher Price toys.

Always thankful when Grahm shows us things he made at school or at a church activity, and when he reads us a story.

Always grateful for sleepovers... with just Grahm this time.

Grahm was looking for a pillow and found some yarn. He liked that it's so soft. He even slept with a skein.

Grahm and I were reading a book about the Holy Ghost. Grahm told me that he was watching a show upstairs at his house that he didn't like. He then said he listen to Spirit and decided to leave and go downstairs. He said, "I could have ignore the feeling but I listened." Grahm often tells me things he's learned at church or at home. 

PC to Mark

Always thankful for a beautiful sunset.

Always thankful...
