I know that the whole family is ferociously political so I knew you would love this one:
Time for some Campaignin'
And turn up your sound, you have to hear it......

I MISS THESE GUYS

I really miss seeing these guys each week. It has been a long dry summer and even before that ,with the writers strike and all, it seems like it's been a long time.
FYI The new season starts on September 25.
and season 4 comes out on DVD on September 2

DANG

Dang......... just after I finally decide on a new car, along comes something better. If I had only waited.

TREE HUGGER

So now I am a true "tree hugger" we just bought a new car, and decided on a Honda Hybrid. So now I guess we join the ranks of the true environmentalist wakos.
Actually I just decided I would rather have a car payment again than to keep giving money to the big oil company's
So, happy day I have a new car.....

BLIND SERVICE PROJECT

So this may be one of those "you had to be there" stories but last night when I was telling the family it sure did seem funny.
We have a blind guy in our neighborhood. At least he is legally blind, so he can see shadows etc.
Well one day last week he drove his riding lawn mower down the street and around the corner to mow the lawn of a single lady that needed help. Then when he finished he is driving back home and a policeman drives by and thinks, "hey that guy looks like he's blind" so said blind man gets pulled over on his lawnmower by the local cops and questioned about the sanity of driving around blind on a lawnmower. After all you could run over an animal and not even know it.
A couple of years ago I saw this same guy riding a bike down the street with his white cane setting across the handlebars of the bike.

JOSEPH SMITH CABIN

I guess since everyone else is posting scrapbook stuff, then it is not to obnoxious of me to post some of my drawings.
This is a sketch I did of the Joseph Smith Sr. cabin in Palmyra New York. this is looking at the back side of the cabin, or the view that Joseph would have been seeing as he came out of the sacred grove after he had his first vision of the Father and Son.

LAUGHTER

"LAUGHTER IS GOD'S HAND ON A TROUBLED WORLD"

So go ahead and laugh!

LITTLE GUY WITH A BIG HEART

I can not pass up the need to blog a few words about this tough little guy.
3 weeks ago Zane (grandson) had open heart surgery. after one day in ICU and 2 days in a regular room, he came home. I am so thankful for his tough little spirit and for the faith and prayers that were offered in his behalf. He is not only better than new but doing great.
I have to recognize not only the authority of the priesthood that we have but the absolute power of faith. I believe that without the demonstration of faith from family and friends that the blessings of the priesthood cannot be fully realized.
So thanks to everyone who offered prayers of faith and hope for our little Zane.
