This past weekend, we had a fun time canoeing with some friends. We went down the river and saw ducks, fish and a muskrat! The four of us went back to our house where I had a good Southern meal prepared. We ate chicken 'n dumplings and fried okra fresh from our garden. After dinner, we played my new favorite game, Monopoly Deal. Trav won!
My little brother got his mission call to Sao Paulo Brazil Interlagos Mission, Portuguese speaking! He had been waiting for a few weeks for that letter to come in the mail, but boy was he excited when he did get it! So happy that he couldn't wait two more minutes for us to get on Skype. We heard him read his call for the first time on speaker phone as we were outside the door to our home. Trav and I are elated!

Last night for FHE, we read a section from the pamphlet 3 Simple Ways to Become a Happier Family. The lesson was on communication skills, and Travis and I already do everything it suggests to have better interactions.
Trav did the activity, and so we played 20 Questions. My husband mysteriously got something from the kitchen and told me if I could guess what it was, he's give it to me. My last guess, after asking if it was candy or a nail, was a ring... and look!!
