Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung: December 2005
http://dieumgebung.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung. Tuesday, December 27, 2005. Yesterday Mom and I were on the phone with Kathleen when the phones went dead (again! Right during our conversation. There was a lot of static on the line and then, poof, no dial tone. This time, however, I was able to "reset" the system by unplugging everything for about 5-10 minutes until calling our number with the cell phone did not give a busy signal. At that point, plugging the phones in gave a dial tone. Posted by Vatti @ 11:39 PM. We had a w...

Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung. Sunday, February 19, 2006. Sam and home teaching. Back to Sam and home teaching. After one visit with them we were silently driving home up Highway 109 when Sam broke the silence by saying, You know, Dad, Brother and Sister Smith are really neat people, aren’t they? Posted by Vatti @ 2:23 PM. Tuesday, February 14, 2006. You haven't posted anything for weeks! Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! Posted by Mutti @ 9:49 AM. Sam and Home Teaching - 2.

Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung: January 2006
http://dieumgebung.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung. Thursday, January 19, 2006. The library is NOT a cushy place to serve. Posted by Mutti @ 8:59 AM. Saturday, January 14, 2006. Sam's talk and Alma 24. The peace that christ gives us is not the same as world peace. The peace that christ gives us is an inner peace that comes from doing what you know is right, even thought others may not agree. In fact in Matthew 10:34 christ says "think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.". We have be...

Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung: June 2006
http://dieumgebung.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung. Sunday, June 18, 2006. We were out in Nevada in May to see my parents. There are many reasons to visit, but one is that there is always something to do associated with the garden and I enjoy the physical labor. The fresh vegetables are always excellent. Almost every evening we had a "stir-fry" of carrots,. Onions (the onions were not completely mature, hence the water wash to remove the dirt),. On tomato blossoms to chemically induce fruit setting earlier than it would have ha...

Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung: July 2006
http://dieumgebung.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung. Sunday, July 23, 2006. That each of us make. This brings up the issue of to what extent it is appropriate to legislate on moral issues, or to forbid things that might be viewed as publicly endorsing religion. I recommend an article written by Dallin H. Oaks. On this subject. It is not as straight-forward as I might have thought. One final idea. I have been thinking about Lincoln's Second Inaugual Address. Can anyone imagine a current president saying such a thing? A month ago ...

Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung: May 2006
http://dieumgebung.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung. Sunday, May 28, 2006. Last day of seminary. The last day was actually 2 weeks ago, but a lot has happened since then. 1 We had over 30 items donated. So with 19 in the class, this meant we had enough for everyone to get something, no matter how much money they had (the 1st round, a cooperative effort), and then enough for a 2nd round where the sky was the limit on the bidding. Music cards and a 4 pound jar of Jelly Belly. Posted by Vatti @ 7:58 AM. Monday, May 15, 2006. The ot...

Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung: March 2006
http://dieumgebung.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung. Thursday, March 02, 2006. Back in December when I was all excited about making fruitcake, I purchased a box of golden raisins. These are sometimes harder to find and are a little more expensive than darker raisins. When I didn't make the cake they were intended for, I opened this box and added them to our raisin canister. That's when I spotted an offer for a free recipe booklet! Posted by Mutti @ 8:53 PM. Sam and Home Teaching - 2.

Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung: April 2006
http://dieumgebung.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung. Thursday, April 27, 2006. More Firsts of Spring. The other day a herd of deer (about 8) galloped through our back yard and when they were finished we noticed that one of Kathleen's "cup-and-saucer on a pole" yard decorations was a little bit worse for the wear. Apparently one of the deer's hooves hit the saucer, fragmenting it into a number of pieces, and taking a big chunk out of the cup- which nonetheless stayed attached to the pole:. Posted by Vatti @ 8:07 PM. 2 Keep track ...

Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung: August 2006
http://dieumgebung.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Mutti und Vatti's Umgebung. Sunday, August 20, 2006. The bad news is that we will now have 3 lanes of traffic to cross if we want to make a left turn from Covert onto Manchester. The good news is that it will be easier to make a right turn, which we will be doing more and more often, I suspect. Here is a picture of some geese that appeared on the street in front of our house:. I think they are odd creatures. Posted by Vatti @ 6:14 PM. Monday, August 14, 2006. Allowances, American Express Style. In case y...
