Week of 15-21 June 2009

Dear Family, - Happy Father's Day
Today we spoke in the Farmington Hills Ward sacrament meeting in the morning and went to the North Shores meeting to see the Grand children sing and Tyler pass the sacrament. It was a special bonus to see some of the members from the old Gratiot Branch (where we served a 1 year stake service mission), who now attend the Roseville Ward.
This week the house has been in a messy turmoil because we are having the tile replaced, but it is looking really nice now. We really like Nick, our Albanian master tile man. He is doing a great job removing the old cracked and worn tile , preparing the surface with a layer of cement which makes a hard flat and level surface for the tile , and then laying and cementing in place the tile. Monday he will grout the tile and Tuesday seal it and hopefully finish up the job. Then we will be able to put appliances, furniture and “things” back in place and clean up.
This week, Dad had a breakfast with three on his friends from Ford on Tuesday and played Racquet ball with two other friends on Thursday. It was good see them and catch up on what is happening with them.
Friday we both went to the Stake Youth Conference where Mom taught five 1 hour group sessions about the ancient temple and tabernacle, how they symbolize Heavenly Father's plan for us and how they relate to today's temple. She did an excellent job in preparing the youth to go do baptisms in the temple afterwards.
We hope all is well with y'all,
Love ya, Mom & Dad
