My Missionary Commission
MY MISSIONARY COMMISSION
I am Called of God. My authority is above that of the kings of the earth. By revelation I have been selected as a personal representative of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is my Master and he has chosen me to represent him. To stand in his place, to say and do what he himself would say and do if he personally were ministering to the very people to whom he has sent me. My voice is his voice, and my acts are his acts; my words are his words, and my doctrine is his doctrine. My commission is to do what he wants done. To say what he wants said. To be a living modern witness in word and deed of the divinity of his great and marvelous latter-day work.
-Elder Bruce R McConkie

SHOPPING SPREE PART III (3/22/2011)
So today we went shopping at Walmart to get all the non clothing items. I typed out the shopping list and it was 2 full columns on 1 page. Richard about had a heartattack because he never really read the list before. So we headed to WAlmart and let Dylan do the shopping and it was too funny. Its amazing what your kids do and don't know about shopping. Well in the end we all played the price is right and see who guess the closest prices off all the items we got. Well Richard guessed $700, Dylan guessed 500 and I guess $425. Well winner is....the MOM...of course. Total bill came to $438. Alot of stuff for 2 years! and in Richards words...How is he going to pack all that stuff into 2 bags.....I say Miracles do happen!
