Getting Settled

Getting settled is only half of it. We spent the weekend breaking down boxes, setting up the Dish, watching movies, football, Janna selling ModBod clothes, church, etc. We still have a mess of boxes in our room and another 12-15 on the main level. The weather was beautiful fall weather this weekend, staying in the 60-72 degree range.

It is clearly evident that one of the first things I need to do next spring is build the boys a sand box. They have already been out in some of the dirt in the back yard digging with their beach toys. Fortunately we have a good fence and no cats around, so the sand should stay feces-free. The pellet gun will guarantee that it stays animal-free.

The lesson in Gospel Doctrine discussed the Epistle of James. It was our first time hearing this teacher's lesson and she was very good. We talked about the power of words and how both wonderful and damaging our words can be. I have given that a lot of thought over the past 24 hours. The words we speak allow others to better understand what type of people we are. I hope my words will reflect the type of person I want to become.
