Scripture of the month

And moreover, I say unto you, that salvation doth not come by the law alone; and were it not for the atonement, which, God himself shall make for the sins and iniquities of his people, that they must unavoidably perish, notwithstanding the law of Moses.

Mosiah 13:28

Thought of the Month

"Think of it! when his body was taken from the cross and hastily placed in a borrowed tomb, he, the sinless son of God, had already taken upon him not only the sins and temptations of every human soul who will repent, but all of our sickness and grief and pain of every kind. He suffered these afflictions as we suffer them, according to the flesh. He suffered them all. He did this to perfect his mercy and his ability to lift us above every earthly trial."

Howard W. Hunter
"He is Risen," Ensign, May 1988

Felicia and the scaring of the children

Felicia decided that she was to old to go trick or treating this year. So, she wanted to stay home and hand out candy instead. The only problem is is that we never get any kids because they have to go to the back of the house. So, Felicia dressed up as a scarecrow and put a pumpkin on her head (my Uncle Matt does that on Halloween and that's where we got the idea from). She sat outside by the front of the house for almost 3 hours while I took the boys and my niece out. We got so many trick or treaters. None of them realized that there was a person in that costume. Everytime someone put there hand in the bowl to get candy Felicia would grab it. She scared the crap out of some teenagers, made one scream like a little girl. It was great!
On a side note Andy and Nick were Thing 1 and Thing 2. Their costumes, I think, turned out very cute. They got tons of candy. I dressed up as an evil fairy, but I've got no pictures of my costume, it was pretty cool though.
