Today was such a good day. The only thing that would of made it better would be to have Melissa, Chaz, and Hazel here. Happy Birthday Melissa!
Keagan was sustained an Elder today in sacrament and received that priesthood tonight. Brother Moore came over from the high council and Ray was able to do it. What a wonderful spirit that was here. It was pretty amazing.
Earlier today, Adam Cichoski (he served in our ward as a missionary 4 years ago) and his mom and Dad were here and came to our ward. They came over after church for dinner. It was fun to visit with them and especially that live in Las Vegas. They’re not in Keagan’s mission , but close to the border.
My mom and Thom came over shortly afterwards. The Cichoski’s left and Makayla and her dad came over for Keagan.
After Keagan received the priesthood, a newer couple in our ward came over and needed a blessing. Ray gave the first blessing and Keagan gave his first blessing right after. It was so amazing. The spirit was so strong. That boy- man amazes me. He was definitely listening to the spirit. I cried more during that blessing than when he was being ordained. It was beautiful and sweet.
So, we had a good night feeling the spirit and good company. Lots of laughs and some tears.
Keagan went to trek this week and had such a good experience. He’s been telling us some good stories! There was a ma that got stung 25 times! She had a blessing and Keagan told us how everyone was so quiet and Reverent and she then she was ok.
Before trek, nice and clean
After, dirty and very smelly

Earlier this week I got to help rescue a friend. She had a couple of flat tires and I got to go pick her up an hour or so away. I felt bad that it happened to her, but it was such a fun adventure spending time with her and having dinner together. I teased her that this is not what I had in mind when I asked in my prayers to be able to help someone that day. ;)
To climb into my friends truck, I couldn’t reach and there was no stool, Ray found some bricks for me to step on to climb into the truck. Lol!
Washington is beautiful!
I don’t have a finished picture yet, but we finally painted our bedroom! We’ve lived here 13 years I think and never painted, always wanted to and have, had that yellow and a green paint swatch on our walls for a few years..
It looks beautiful now.
Heavenly Father is so good to us. We are blessed and loved.
Have a great week!
Love ya lots,
Sis Shoop
