American West Heritage Center

Yesterday we had a great time volunteering at the American West Heritage Center. We weeded, chopped firewood, remade flower beds, chinked a cabin, played in the mud and water, visited, hauled water, picniced, and had a lovely day. There were only a handful of visitors. And that was a big day. So everything was very laid back and nice. I'm grateful Heavenly Father has given us a way to escape to the country, work the land, and remember our pioneer forebearers even though we live in downtown Logan. He truly has cared for our desire to do this.

Today there is much to do. I've enjoyed over an hour of quiet time to study the scriptures, pray, ponder, and write. But I should probably wake of the kids pretty soon here. They have slept for almost 12 hours! They were woren out, so we went to bed at 7:45 last night.

Well, anyway back to what must be accomplished. Gardening, swimming lessons, visiting teaching, cleaning, cooking, exercise, laundry, and maybe a date. We will see how it goes. It's going to be a great day no matter what. How many people get to live their dream life everyday!!!? I do!! I'm surrounded by my wonderful kids. We get to work on goals, household chores, building up the Kingdom, playing, hiking, biking, etc. everyday. I have the dream career. I'm so grateful Heavenly Father has given Jaremy a job that allows me to do this. I'm so grateful Jaremy is passionate about how important it is for me to stay home and care for and train our little ones. He is so selfless! I love him so much!!!
