Ice Skating

Even tho I didn't get any real good pictures of this. I still want to document it. We went ice skating with Scotts family. The girls were so excited. The boys were too even though they had no idea what ice skating really was. It was cute to get them little skates and to see that they actually COULD walk in them. I was impressed. The first time around the rink Scott took Chase and I took Ty. Boy was THAT a work out. He had gummy worms legs and I had to bend over the whole time trying to keep him up. I was surprised we made it around. And of course, he wanted to go more. So we did. After going around a few times I was ready to fall over. Its hard trying to hold up a four year old who is mostly complaining and won't do anything to help out the matter. Finally we were able to get one of those ice skating walkers. He did better with that. And by the time we left both of the boys were loving it! We will have to do it again. I always tell myself we are going to do it in the summer when there arent SO many people there....but then always forget.

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland in speaking of the divinity of The Book of Mormon said: For 179 years this book has been examined and attacked, denied and deconstructed, targeted and torn apart like perhaps no other book in modern religious history—perhaps like no other book in any religious history. And still it stands. Failed theories about its origins have been born and parroted and have died—from Ethan Smith to Solomon Spaulding to deranged paranoid to cunning genius. None of these frankly pathetic answers for this book has ever withstood examination because there is no other answer than the one Joseph gave as its young unlearned translator. In this I stand with my own great-grandfather, who said simply enough, “No wicked man could write such a book as this; and no good man would write it, unless it were true and he were commanded of God to do so.” I testify that one cannot come to full faith in this latter-day work—and thereby find the fullest measure of peace and comfort in these, our times—until he or she embraces the divinity of the Book of Mormon and the Lord Jesus Christ, of whom it testifies. I ask that my testimony of the Book of Mormon and all that it implies, given today under my own oath and office, be recorded by men on earth and angels in heaven. I hope I have a few years left in my “last days,” but whether I do or do not, I want it absolutely clear when I stand before the judgment bar of God that I declared to the world, in the most straightforward language I could summon, that the Book of Mormon is true, that it came forth the way Joseph said it came forth and was given to bring happiness and hope to the faithful in the travail of the latter days.
