Duties

Husbands Direct Righteous Living in the Home

" 'Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it' (Eph. 5:25). With that kind of love, brethren, we will be better husbands and fathers, more loving and spiritual leaders. Happiness at home is most likely to be achieved when practices there are founded upon the teachings of Jesus Christ (see Ensign, Nov. 1995, 102). Ours is the responsibility to ensure that we have family prayer, scripture study, and family home evening. Ours is the responsibility to prepare our children to receive the ordinances of salvation and exaltation and the blessings promised to tithe payers. Ours is the privilege to bestow priesthood blessings of healing, comfort, and direction."
Russell M. Nelson, "Our Sacred Duty to Honor Women," Ensign, May 1999, 39-40

Sarah and Eric at the Cabin. (Shortly after a hail storm)


Tyson hiking in the woods



Fireworks at West Yellowstone



Quake Lake



Yellowstone Park

We had a really nice time in the park over the 4th of July. The only flaw in an otherwise perfect weekend was that we had car trouble on the way to the cabin. Our hosts (Harry, Carol, Sarah and Eric) treated us to some great scenery and fun drives though some beautiful country. Everything was so green and the flowers were so pretty. Here is a photo of some of what we saw. I will post more later.

Tyson fishing at Balanced Rock Park

Tyson wanted to catch a fish or a snake. We didn't have a pole or line, so he made his own. A branch and long grass from the bank of the stream.

Fun at Dierke's


We all had a great time at Dierke's. Daekon and kiara love the diving board and the others loved the sand and splashing. We all enjoyed the sunshine.
