October, 2025

 President Russell M Nelson died on September 28, 2025 at the age of 101.  Two weeks later President Dallin H. Oaks was sustained President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with counselors Pres. Henry B. Eyring and Pres. D. Todd Christofferson.  We had General Conference and the funeral in between those events.  

Kristlyn took John, Lillian, and Amelia to General Conference.  

Emily and Donivan were also there at the same session having obtained tickets from Mike's ward in Colorado.  

Afterward the Eliasons came for dinner.    We were getting ready to get new carpet in the basement.  

Work continues on the subdivision in the pasture.
