Three
A Beautiful Sight
For members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints there isn't a more beautiful sight than a new temple being built. These sacred, holy places are dear to our hearts. A temple is a place a prayer and meditation. A place where we learn more of our purpose here on earth and what we need to do to return to Heavenly Father. It is a place where sacred ordinances are performed. A place where families are sealed together for eternity. I am so excited for this temple in Brigham City to be finished. It will only be about 20 minutes from where we live. 
Signs of Spring
It's not the buds on the trees or the daffodils pushing their way through the earth. You know it is Spring when Zeppe's opens back up. They are only open 6 months out of the year where we live - from the first Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October. So, between sessions of General Conference last Saturday we went there for our chocolate custard and soft pretzel fix. We are seriously a little bit deprived when it comes to eating establishments in our area, I know.

Pruning
This morning Dave and I pruned trees at our Stake Welfare peach orchard. I love going there because I know that the peaches that will be harvested from those trees all go to help people throughout the world. I like to think that maybe the people who have lost their homes recently in Japan will be given cans of peaches from these very trees. It's very possible because I know disaster victims in Haiti's earthquake and Chile's earthquake have received them in the past.
Well, all that pruning got us thinking we ought to spend some time in our yard today as well. So we went a little nuts whacking off limbs from our own trees and shrubs. Actually, Dave did most of the whacking. But we got the yard looking ready for Spring.
It was kind of chilly weather, only 40 degrees, but when you are working hard it doesn't seem so bad.
I can't believe the tiny trees we planted 8 years ago are now big enough to hold swings for the grandkids.
Our vegetable gardens still had dead veggie plants. But we got those cleaned up, too.
Then we hauled all the branches and limbs to the compost dump.
This enormous pile of mulch was made from the piles of clippings out there.

It may have snowed yesterday, but I'm pretty sure Spring is on its way.
Random Thursday photos
Thursday morning I babysat Olivia while Holly went with Lily and Jack on a fieldtrip. I love her little teeth!
I worked later that afternoon. Then that evening we had our Relief Society Birthday party. Michael Ballam was the speaker and singer at our program. This is a photo of our Relief Society Presidency with him. It was a great evening.
