6-10-84

Dear Diary, I am truly grateful for the blessings of this day. We all went to church together and enjoyed it very much. I was called to give a talk in Sac. I was so emotional. I cried, Charlie being there and thinking how bad he needs the blessings of being active in the church and to think some of our members take their church callings so lightly. I sure love our Heavenly Father so much and also love our family and pray they will all get along good together. Steve just called tonight so I talked with he and Janette.

Dear Diary, I think I started the day off right, I got up early enough to study my Relief So. lesson in case I have to teach tomorrow. I then fixed our dinner and flowers to take down to the Martin reunion at our old chapel. It was really great lots of relatives and we had lots of food and picture making. We were all so tickled to see everyone only 3 of our children were there, Johnnie and family, Charlie and Chuckie and Audrey.

Dear Diary, We have had another very busy day washing up things after everyone left except Charle and Chuckie. Neava's family took Christopher home with them to Joplin MO for a month. Then Tony and Marsha went to Enterprise for the week and the best thing I did today was read in the B of M and read my Relief So. lesson for Sunday. We also visited Ben in the hospital this evening. He's doing well. Hazel looked really rested.

Dear Diary, We have had a really good day. Gathered vegetables and cooked a big meal, made a berry cobbler. Neva, Audrey and I went shopping got Audrey a dress, myself a skirt, Neva got two coats. We came home, had supper then we rode around making pictures of the houses we use to live in. We visited some with our neighbors. I sprayed some this evening and Heber dug the potatoes today and made a window screen for 2nd floor. Steve called tonight so I talked with his fiance Janette.

Dear Dairy, I am really tired tonight. We are very grateful Neva's family and Audrey arrived safely about 8:30 tonight. I was in the kitchen about all day cooking. I washed a load of clothes this morning. I gathered cabbage squash for the Tidmores. Miss Sadie Smith came over so I gave her a cabbage squash and new potatoes. I love to share vegetables. Audrey seemed glad to get home. We will enjoy having them, they all look well.
