What's In This Blog

I created this blog for my journal. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In this blog I keep many of the things I come across as a member of the church. I also share my experiences on the ACE Train and getting to work, my experiences in Manteca where we have lived for three years, and other things I think are noticeable.

September Weekend Birthday and Family Happenings

 Last weekend in September saw us celebrated a birthday teenage birthday party a few days early.  Also a granddaughter spoke in stake conference, and in California another grandson and daughter-in-law performed in Tracy Community Theater, Finding Neverland.  



Granddaughter Loves Selfies, Legos and Books

 Just shy of two granddaughter really loves Legos.  She also likes books.  Use to be she would let you read to her, now she insists on reading and turning the pages.  Her favorite is One Moose Twenty Mice.  She loves finding the cat.

Mural and Art-piece at Aksarben

I discovered this art work on the west side of Aksarben close to the movie theater.  I thought it was very interesting.
