Well here goes another stab at being a good blogger. This last week or so was very eventful. First was the visit of the Saint George Ellsworths. Always good to see them, even though Brent wanted the family to go to the cross town rival football game. For those of you who do not know how my son operates, any team he backs to win has a better than 90% chance to lose. He backed Mesa High and they suffered their worst defeat of the year at the hands of the Mt. Vies Toros. He will never learn.

And on a note closer to home, I called him when the BYU Cougars were playing TCU. He ispulling for the Cougs now, need I say more to the Little family. You had better keep him for the other team or face the kiss of death. My beloved uncle Herman made some friendly wagers with Brent on college football and even let him choose the games, he had to die with Brent owing him the bucks. It is an endless story.

Now for my Sunday 6, in no particular order;

1. I am grateful for fast Sunday and the opportunity to share in the spirit of the meetings, and yes to even share my testimony. I only wish to hear my families also.

2. I am grateful for Brian and the good son that he is, for the wood work he has done around our house and the good dad that he is, not to mention the good husband that he has become, Jolynn will back me up on this one.

3. I am grateful for Lyndsey and Jolynn for being daughters that I am so proud of, and for the good job they do in honoring motherhood and Sherrie and I as parents.

4. I am grateful for Lizzie the dog, an undying companion to the end that loves me unconditionally'

5. Even more grateful am I for my good wife without whom I sould be nothing in this world. She keeps me on an even keel and presents good judgement and common sense. She makes this life bearable and complete.

6. I am thankful for ovens, without which no delectable baked goods could come into the world. Baking offers me a release of tension, besides if you bake good everyone may even like you.

We have had the house painted and now like it better, now we have to start the inside, and all the honey do's. I will become more proficient with the camera and get some pix up soon. I lovc you all and pray for your continued health and prosperity.
