Feb. 2011

It's cold still! I know it is winter but, it has been a very cold winter. We are so glad that we cut wood this summer. We did a experiment on types of wood. We cut aspen, pine, pinon, oak, and alligator juniper. Well the hard wood does burn hotter and longer. We are glad that we cut some hard wood for this winter. The aspen really does keep the flue clean. I am so glad that my boys are finally big enough to split wood and they actually like it. Benjamin turned 12 years old at the end of Feb. We went to Robert's nephew's homecoming from New Zealand it was awesome. Then the next weekend we had family that came to our ward to be involved with Benjamin receiving the priesthood. It was a very humbling experience especially to have Grandpa, Grandma Spurlock and his Uncle Jerry and Aunt Nancy. It was a very special day. The first day that he passed the sacrament he passed with his Brother Michael. I was very emotional to see both of my boys passing the sacrament.
