Library cards, dinner, and jerry.

We LOVE LOVE Love this Scripture app on our iphones and ipod touches. Trevor has been challenged in Primary to read the scriptures at least 20 days of the month. We have decided to read along with him and this app on our phones is such a great thing for our family. We just stop and drop everything, pick up our phones and ipod touches and we read. This application has made it so we are very consistent and are actually reading EVERY day! We read on the steps, on our beds, the greatroom, the playstation room, the kitchen. We don't have to go find our scriptures (because a lot of time they are at seminary building.) So, we are moving right a long, no long breaks between reading, consistent! YEAH! I LOVE modern technology!
We also LOVE Jerry!
Another fantastic item that we are loving is this library card from North Central Library located in Wenatchee WA. Last semister Trent was the library TA and learned all about this great card. We applied online for it and now we get books in the mail. After done reading the books, you just flip the card on the red bag and then send it back to the library - all for free! Another great feature is the electronic books and also books that we can download onto discs for listening to while in the car. FANTastic! And TRENT is the one that introduced us to this card. Both boys LOVE downloading books onto their ipod touches that they listen to. Trevor just downloaded "Fantastic Fox". I love that my boys are READERS!!
My boys are cooking dinner! THIS happens at least once a week and my heart just melts when they cook dinner for us all. Thank you Steve for being a great example of domestic bliss!

Wow!! I haven't looked at blogs for a very long time!! Love all of your pics!! Looks like you are all staying busy but having a good time doing so!! It makes me really miss you guys!! We thought about meeting you in Cali but we are going in June, we should have planned better! Janelle, Byron and I are running on Aug 12 &13. Should be crazy and fun, I think. Everything except the running!! haha We are going to try and get the same hotel as Byron and he is going to try and get us hooked up with some river rafting. Maybe?!? Janelle doesn't know if Ryan is coming and I am not sure Jason is either. As it gets closer they will decide, depending on what all of the kids have going on that weekend. Mom said if you come up they might try and go to Jackson too. Anyway, I was just going to say hi and it turned into a novel!! Hope you are all doing well, love and miss you guys!!
Love, Heather
