Week 39 - January 21-27

Sunday night we were able to almost see totality of the total lunar eclipse but the clouds became too thick right after this picture was taken.  It was fun to see what we could here in Bountiful.  Elder Koberstein took this picture with his new hand held Cannon camera.

The weather man predicted a nice snow storm on Monday.  The roads had no white lines visible when we drove to the Family History Library.  It was snowing big snowflakes.  We were glad to be in one place for the day.

 As we left the Family History Library at five on 

Monday evening.  The outside world was

 a winter wonderland.

Sizable snow piles from snow removal 

equipment were visible.

 Our car had a long wait in the snow storm and 

greeted us with a blanket of snow on it.

Saturday found us in Seattle.  

We went to the beach for a hike.   

It was a very cold and windy day.

We visited J's work site at google.

We went on a short hiked at Gas Works Park

 and enjoyed playing on the playground equipment. 

We ended the day with a seafood dinner at RAYS.

Elder Koberstein and I ate Alaskan King Crab Legs.

Sunday we enjoyed being part of L's ordination to the office of deacon and attending D's New Beginnings dinner and program.  It a wonderful weekend with our family.

A THOUGHT FOR YOU

Our prophet, President Russell M. Nelson, has....described a way we might build; upon that rock and put the Lord's name upon our hearts to guide us though out trials.

He said:  "You who may be momentarily disheartened, remember, life is not meant to be easy.  Trials must be borne and grief endured along the way.  As you remember that 'with God nothing shall be impossible' (Luke 1:37), know that He is your Father.  You are a son or daughter created in His image, entitled through your worthiness to receive revelation to help with your righteous endeavors.  You may take upon you the holy name of the Lord.  You can qualify to speak in the sacred name of God (see D&C 1:20).  -President Henry B.
