Last minute we decided to run to Worlds of Fun for a few hours before dinner. Our friends joined in too and the boys got to go on rollercoasters while I took the girls on the rides that are their size. It was hot, but we still had a fun time.
For Christmas we got POGO passes that have activities we can enjoy around Kansas City. We went to this place that sells swing sets and got to try them all out.
Next we had lunch and played outside at this beautiful park.
Friday evening we went to our first Royals' Game - once again using tickets from our Pogo pass. The Royals WON! It was extremely hot, but it turned out to be an exciting game!
Saturday we slept in, attended a friend's baptism and then cleaned. Eleanor made this sweet drawing on our bathroom mirror for Aaron a few months ago. Before cleaning off the mirror, I attempted to take a picture of it.
And Sunday today! We rushed to church and sat down minutes before it started. Usually we get there early, but we were rushed this morning. Sacrament meeting was spirit filled as a lady that is deaf gave a talk. There were a few times it was hard to understand her, but overall, I could feel the spirit and cried as she testified of God's miracles in her life. She recited the words from the hymn, "There is Sunshine in my soul today."
I played the piano in primary today and each time I hear the primary children sing, I feel the spirit as they sing their testimonies. They sang the second verse of "I am a Child of God" and I could feel of their eagerness to learn as they sang, "I am a Child of God, And so my needs are great; Help me to understand his words, before it grows too late." The days are flying by and I pray that I am teaching my children all that they must know before it grows too late.
