February 20th - 26th

In Our Family This Week...
* Dad had Monday off for Presidents Day
* Ben and Nathan had Dentist appointments - both were cavity free!
* Mom, Nathan and the girls decided (last minute) to go with dad down to Gillette, WY. Ben didn't want to go so stayed with August. We left on Wednesday and returned on Friday. Mom and the kids had fun hanging out in the hotel room, reading and playing in the pool while dad worked. While in Gillette, we met up with the Missionaries (one of them used to serve in our ward) and took them out to lunch.
* Mom attended the Stake Women's Conference on Saturday

Seth Spotlight...
* Had a conference where the Apostle, Elder Rasband, came and spoke to both Nicaraguan Missions (North and South). Highlight was that Seth got to shake the Apostles hand
* Had a Gift Exchange with the missionaries in his zone - he ended up with a "cool knife" so he was happy
* Worked on finalizing a baptism for Saturday
* Celebrated a recent converts birthday
* Did a big Service Project with his District (moving cement bags??)

Spiritually Speaking...
A sweet tender mercy happened: Dad has wanted to have a bed-liner for his truck (these run roughly $800). The auto body shop that has been working on repairing his truck called this week and asked if he'd like a bed liner and they could give him a super good deal at $300. As much as he would have liked this, he declined and thanked them for offering such a great deal (but kept dreaming how awesome it would be to have one!). The shop called back a day or so later and said that they had figured out a way that he could have the bed liner for FREE!!!! We felt totally blessed!
