Boy what a great week we had. Our new little jeramiah is so precious and tiny. He is getting a bit of meat on his little body, but still so so cute. Our family has been slowly trying to transform our backyard into a multipurpose yard. We have high hopes to be able to live out of our backyard. We have been planting more fruit trees,besides what is already there. We have planted a wonderful garden next we want some chickens. Our goal is to be as self-sufficiant as possible.

Ken and I love to work in the yard, we love the outdoors. All of the grandkids love to come and help grandma & grandpa and just play and get dirty. Ken is having many blessings come to him as he works really hard to gain a clientel with used parts in his new job with Holt of Ca. The Lord has been so kind and kept Ken in his tender care now bringing people to him now and then instead of Ken having to go and search alone. We are so humbled at his love for us and our family.

It was Brian's birthday this last week and it was the pitts for all of us to be so far away from him.
I must say even though he is married in our hearts he will always be close to us and a part of us.
Still my heart was so sad not to be able to give him a hug and just hang out with him and sara.

Thursday Amy & I went to a big leadership/self empowerment convention at Arco Arena where Micheal Phelps, Colin Powel, Gulini and many more people, it was very good and helped remind me that whatever you put your mind to you can do if you want to. Wow I can't believe it it almost sunday again!! It seems like the weeks just zoom buy anymore. Also there are so many things and people to help that I feel I am not doing enough but I know in the end I am doing all I can right now.

I am really concerned about our country, I feel like this amazing, free, choice land is being slowly taken away. There is more to the picture that meets the eye. Our economy is slowly crashing and our family is working so hard to be prepared. I encourage EVERYONE TO DO ALL YOU CAN TO GET PREPARED FOR THE THINGS THAT ARE COMMING. I suggest ernest prayer and ask what you need to be doing for your family to be prepared. I love my Heavenly Father and he will guide you and be with you if you will only ask and do all you can to keep his commandments. Have a great week.
