Colin found Elise's clothes I'd saved for her

Here are some pictures of the clothes I couldn't find that I rescued from the bags going to the thrift store. Juliet would have more fun if her cousins were here. She has been a lot of help.

Don't forget our Exchange

This is a great time to go through clothes , toys, multiple kitchen items,tools, etc and bring them for our exchange and auction. Ben and Marae will be setting up household soon and if you have anything you don't need that takes up space think of them. They didn't have all the receptions, etc to accumulate things. We all remember how sparse things were in those struggling years. Any outgrown clothes that won't be needed in the forseeable future will go for the exchange. If you don't have anything that is fine. Recent moves tend to clean out things. Larisa has sent a few big bags. Someone may really appreciate that shirt in your closet you never wear. Craig starts Amazon on Wednesday for training. Elise is planning on working at Williams and Sonora for the holidays and plans to give demos. She would probably appreciate any ideas. I loved her yam strips baked with onion. Any root vegetable can go together I guess. Will have to try Parsnips and Rutabagas We have them in the garden.

A tender mercy of the Lord

We have been remodeling houses in the Reno area and then renting them out.

We had picked up this refrigerator from Craigslist and decided to pick up our pantry cabinet to replace the one the people had taken out of the house when they foreclosed.

We were just sailing down the freeway and of course everything was tied in but not good enough evidentally. All of a sudden we looked back and the pantry had flown off. It suddenly just rolled off of the freeway. My immediate reaction was one of extreme gratitude. It waited to fly off till we were out of the heavy traffic of Reno and near our exit to Cold Springs where the traffic was sparse. A terrible accident would have been the result if it had flown off just a couple miles earlier in the heavy traffic. Larisa said Nick's cousin was killed by a tire flying off the car in front. We were not even concerned about the shape of the cabinet but when we checked it a couple of days later it was minor and can be repaired. In conference today they talked about how we could have the gift of ministry of angels if we were worthy. Wow! What a blessing. Did some angels quickly roll it off the freeway for us so it wouldn't obstruct the traffic until Craig and David could get back to get it? Thank you ! Thank you for watching over us.
