Saturday PM Session

Just a few thoughts from the PM Session


*  The only one we can have faith in is The Lord Jesus Christ.
-  Is your faith tied to man or to God?
*  Prayers of faith will help us with daily decisions.


*  Even if everyone is doing it - wrong is never right.
*  Those who face their fears with faith have courage as well.
*  Companion to love is trust.
*  Your testimony of Jesus Christ is a powerful tool.
*  We best serve our Father in Heaven by righteously serving others.  Jesus was our example.
*  To rationalize disobedience does not image God's laws.
*  Do what is right let the consequence follow.
*  Do not lose sight of the Lord's way.
*  The words and purposes of God cannot be frustrated
*  The Gospel of Jesus Christ teaches us to treat all people with love and respect even if we disagree.
*  There exists today, a great need for respect. 
*  Families could hold a family tree gathering  (What a fun idea to get together and tell stories about our parents, grandparents and greats and to share pictures) 


Note:  I hope you enjoyed these little thoughts.  Please add more.  Tomorrow we will have a house full of people.  Would  someone else or even a few  of you please share your thoughts on the blog?


Love you,
Gramma

Saturday A.M. Conference Hi-Lites

I decided that I would just jot down some short highlights and things we were asked to do while listening to the conference talks.  Here are some of the things I gleaned from the talks this morning:


*  Live true to the faith.  It is worth it to live the gospel.
*  Defend the faith with courtesy and courage
*  Christ-like love is the greatest need we have on this planet.
*  We all have the opportunity of blessing the lives of others as we share their burden with love and kindness - meeting the needs of someone else.
*  Pornography is vile and evil.  Handheld devices are a major problem.  Counsel with your children with love and understanding.
-  Make a family plan.
-  The Savior has paid the price for our sins.  We must kneel and pray.
*  As the world slips away to the Lord's love of chastity.  We do not.
*  Stand in holy places.  Be not moved.
*  Don't let the whirlwinds of life drag you down.
*  You hold in your hands the happiness of more people than you can imagine.
*  Young children are often more sensitive to the Spirit than we realize. 
*  We have faith, hope and charity to guide us.
And finally:
LET THE LORD BE THE LEADER OF YOUR FAMILY!


Some things I gleaned - Do you have more to add?


We sure love you all.

Update From Camrose!

Hello Everyone,

It has been some time since we have been on here.  Life seems to get so busy and we let time run away on us. We would like to introduce our new addition to our family.
               Preston Brent Hudkins born on January 25,2014 at 8:25pm, weighing 10lbs 5ounces,in Camrose, Alberta.

We really didn't know what it would be like having a fourth kiddo in the house, but so far it hasn't been to crazy.  Advil is our new best friend to help with those long days and headaches that come with them.  Our house sounds like a train station at rush hour. in the end though, we wouldn't trade it for the world. Love our family.
Onto the rest of the update;
In December we moved from Fort Mac to Camrose and we couldn't be happier.  Keisha and Austin are enjoying their school and the bus ride to and from each day.  Nice for us parents because we don't need to gather the younger two for a five minute ride. Keisha has made many friends here but still talks of her BFF's from Fort Mac. Austin had no problem settling in, and even managed to make friends with a few boys that he catches the bus with in our neighborhood.   We have a park across the street from our home and Mason sounds like a broken record asking day and night to go play. ha-ha. Milder spring temperatures would be great to get out and enjoy the park with him.
Kristina has been enjoying the cuddles she gets from Preston (she snuggles him to pieces). She is looking forward to the summer when she can explore this new city and the trail system they have here,
As for myself, I still work in Fort Mac commuting back and forth, which is no fun at all but pays the bills.  In wake of the incident I was involved in at work in Sept of 2012, I no longer operate heavy equipment at Syncrude. They are currently looking for a new position for me within the organization that will accommodate my situation (takes ages though).  In the meantime I decided I would start a new career on my own, so I enrolled in NAIT: Fourth Class Power Engineering Online course.  I can still work full time but with some sacrifice I can finish this course on my own terms. I am really looking forward to the doors that will open for me and my family. Hopefully get closer to our new home as well.
Well I should get to bed now, been studying all night and have to be up too early.

Love from,

Jordan, Kristina, Keisha, Austin, Mason, Preston and Luna (meow meow)

Avon calling

Hello Everyone!

It's been awhile since I last posted.  I hope you enjoyed the homemade stuff I posted a while back.  Brent and I are heading to Hawaii on Monday!  We're going to Oahu and will be going to the Polynesian Culture Centre as well as the active volcano on the big island of Hawaii. We're getting pretty excited!

On another note...

So, to keep myself busy, I decided to become an Avon Representative once again!  I sold Avon about 30 years ago in Swan Hills and have been using their products on/off since.  It's not always easy finding an Avon Rep!

Anyway, if you are interested, please contact me at roxannehudkins60@live.com.  I will then send you the link and  you can get registered.  You can shop online or I can send you the brochures if you wish. Your products will be delivered to you.  If you have any questions, give me a call at 403 847 1060.  If you know of anyone wanting Avon, please give them my email address.  Thanks!!

Well, time to start packing…

Take care and love you all,
Roxanne
