Christmas Gift

In Church yesterday the topic of a talk in Sacrement services was on what to give the Savior for a Christmas present. Here are some ideas:
1) Repentence- is a very special gift to give Him, considering we would not be able to do that if He had not suffered in the GArden of Gethsemane for us.
2) attend your church services, and while you're there, remember to thank Him for choosing to obey Father. He had His free agency too. He could have chosen not to do it. He loves us.
3) Service to others. Remember when you are serving someone, anyone in any way, you are serving Him.
4) Remember to say Merry CHRISTMAS, not Happy Holidays or Merry X-Mas. WE celebrate Christmas to celebrate His birth.

Remember that the Savior must have an enormous amount of love for all of us, it enabled Him to do what He did. He loved us more than Himself.

Why is it not safe to say anything on a farm?
The corn has ears, the potatoes have eyes, and the beans talk.LOL

Christmas

I tried to go Christmas shopping with my step-mom, Mary yesterday. We had first gone to breakfast at a church friend's house. Then we decided to go to Wal-mart. The one stop shopping place. Yeah, its nice to have pretty much everything you need in one place right. I really liked Wal-mart when it first came out. It was cheaper. Then when they decided to go to supercenters, I thought it would be good because you would only have one place to go to get everything you need. But my goodness! By the time I only get half way around the store I am so wore out! I still cant get everything, even though its right there. I poop out. And its even worse during Christmas season. I love Christmas, its my favorite holiday. But I hate shopping for it! We ended up getting one gift and leaving! Having Lupus, I poop out easy anyway. It doeesnt take long for me to get tired of the crowds. Dont leave your shopping to the last minute if youre like me. Do a little bit at a time. Or just get gift cards and let 'em shop themselves. Try not to go crazy. Remember what Christmas is for. God bless you!

My family tree is full of nuts! LOL
