The first nice event this month was my birthday. Kevin and Melany and their family came over early in the morning and suprised me on my birthday. Danica came early as well. Dan and the children came just a little later. They brought a great variety of nice breakfast foods. I was thoroughly stuffed when I was done. After we ate they came and cleaned the church with us a service. Sunday, Missy and her family brought me a delicious German Chocolate cake. I was so blessed. Craig also took me to dinner at the Red Lobster, one of my favorite restaurants. A week before we helped a family move. They asked we wanted their piano. I was so pleased. I have a lovely keyboard that Craig gave me, but there is something about the feel of a real piano that is better for my shaky hands. I am so grateful. I have kept busy gardening, attending the temple, playing the piano, working on a quilt and reading a good book, called "Belonging to Heaven". We took a family picture for Debbie's family before Ian left on his mission. Another Saturday, Charity called and said she would like to come over and do some service with me. We cleaned the church and picked and bottled beans. Later in the day, we took Kevin's children and Dan and Danica and their children to the Dinosaur museum.
We went to the play "Daddy Long Legs" yesterday. It was a musical adaptation of the book. It was a very sweet play and I really enjoyed it.
