The Adverbs: Shouts Were Heard!

Shouts Were Heard!

Shouts of joy were heard at our house during General Conference this morning! (Yes, we are a very reverent family!) After 39 years of my family being in Kansas, they will finally have a temple that is about 40 minutes away! They went from being in the Manti, UT temple district, to Atlanta, GA, to Dallas, TX (where I went growing up), & Denver, CO while Dallas was being expanded, to St. Louis, MO, to Winter Quarters, NE. I am very excited for this! I can't wait to find out where in the "greater Kansas City Area" it will be! Hooray for Temples!

heard at our house

A: "Where is the table to the Thanksgiving toy?" E: "Over here by bookshelf." A: "You're lyin', E. It's not here." E: "I not a lion, I Liza! I not a lion, A!"
The kids just asked I was going as for Halloween M: "The Mama." A: "You're going as Obama? So cool! Are people going to vote for you?" Ummm...doubtful. I guess the fact that we voted today has got him in a great political mindset, however the sign in our yard says we support the other guy. :)
While learning about talents in Primary. D: "Who has a talent?" A: "Everyone. Well, except people in Germany. They don't even know what that word means."
A: "I want to be like Batman because he is a hero." M: "Oh, how do you know he's a hero? What makes him one?" A: "Because he has a cape." M: "Oh." A: "And don't forget he also has a mask." Then we talked about what makes a real hero.
