This is the week before Easter. Every year I ponder what Jesus did that last day of his life. Wednesday is one of my favorite days to think about because we don't know what He did. That leaves it all up to the imagination. Why wasn't it recorded? Was He alone and no one knew what He was doing? Was He about personal things?

I like to picture that He used Wednesday as His Spiritual Preparation Day. He knew extra Strength would be needed in the days ahead. Perhaps He went to the Mount to pray as He often did. The middle of the week is a good time to renew yourself at the "Mount."

Perhaps He visited His mother.


Wednesday's are my "Mid-week Spiritual Preparation Day." The temple is my 'mount'. What a blessing to serve there each week.


Usually I stop by on my way home to visit my parents. This all makes for a Beautiful Day.



Perhaps His last Wednesday was a Beautiful Day. I hope so.

Yummy

Recently Jan and I had our blogfriend, Lura over for a 'teaparty.'

This beautiful little delicacy is a"Geranium Tea Cake"

This is a Rosebud Teacake. The flowers were delicious.

Here we are!

Where has Kris been?

In the wee hours of the morning I have been building a family tree on Ancestry.com. It is beautifully loaded with loved ones. Each time I find a new detail my stomach does flips! It is so fun.
On and off since my teenage years I have felt a strong connection to genealogy. In various ways I have worked on my 'roots' for these many years. Just a few weeks ago I bit the bullet and paid the fee to belong to Ancestry.com. Already it feels so worth it.
Along with the exciting discovery of deceased ancestors I have even connected with distant relatives who are ALIVE!
