Our grandson, Nickolas, went on a scout klondike over the week end and Brother Christensen sent us some pictures of the event. You do have snow!! I didn't doubt the reports, it is just that I wasn't experiencing it so I didn't give it much thought. This is where we are grateful for all the moisture and a beautiful Spring that is sure to come. Okay, I know, it is easy for me to say enjoying 70 and 80 degree weather, but I am sure you agree.
A new week and I am wondering where last week went. I have been working on Missionary Résumés and have 7 done, working on #8, one is in the waiting file, and one yet still to come in. I see Elder Marrott every week when he comes for District Meeting and still he forgets. The departure date is February 10th so maybe he will make it this week. I told him that I wasn't going to remind him anymore. I also have been deleting a lot of outdated material off the computer. Sister Butler reminds me that the computer has a lot of memory, but I don't like a lot of clutter even if it is on the computer. I thought very carefully before I deleted and I think 1999 qualifies for outdated. It will make it so nice when I am teaching Sister Anderson about the computer to have less confusing information. We had people in the office most everyday and signed a few on the computer. Some have good computer skills, some a little, and some not at all and so we do it for them. We are gradually taking people off our contact list as some are getting jobs, some have moved from the area, some just aren't available because their phones have been out of service for a couple of months, and some we see no effort on their part.
I enjoyed the speakers in church today as they spoke on the Family Proclamation. They recently moved here from California and had had first-hand experience with all the problems over Proposition 8. It is good to hear such strong testimonies given.
Better close so we can go for a ride while the sun is still out so Elder Avery can wear his sunglasses as he broke his other glasses and won't have them until Friday. We kind of get cabin fever after awhile and just need to be outside.
With love,
Los Averys

Yesterday I got Brenda to take me for a ride to the top of the summit so we could see how much snow had piled up as well. It was so beautiful and deep! I'm with you, Sister Avery: I like to keep things clean and tidy on my computer as well. It makes for smooth sailing when I really need it! :-)
Awesome that you learned how to put pictures on your blog. I also enjoyed reading all of your stories and things you are learning.The one about submission really touched me and that is so true that the more trust we put in the Lord the more free we are. I love you and am continually proud and happy for all you do for the people of Texas and the example you set for my family.
