Happy Pioneer Day!!
While the holiday has strong links to the LDS Church, it is officially a celebration for everyone, regardless of faith and nationality, who immigrated to the Salt Lake Valley during the pioneer era, which is generally considered to have ended with the 1869 arrival of the Transcontinental Railroad.

A New Reality is in the Works for Me . . .
My sweet little brother, Kelly, died suddenly and with no notice whatsoever 5 months ago today. I am still reeling!!
I have known him all his life. He came to live with me in September, 2015 after Heavenly Father inspired me to call him and see if he would like to be roommates and take care of each other in our remaining years. He was one of my most favorite people in the whole wide world. He was a great companion and funny as all get out - I was always laughing at some he said or did.
For the first 5 weeks after he died, I sat in my rocker and stared out the window crying, not really sure what to do next. So I started praying earnestly, asking Heaven Father what to do next now that my mission to take care of Kelly (and he me) until he left, wayyyyy too early by the way, was complete.
I kept hearing in my heart, get closer to a Temple. So for those of you that don't know, I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints. Our Temples are very precious to us. So, my journey to get closer to a Temple began with no further direction. But everything fell into place, with Heavenly Father in the details, and this coming Friday. I am leaving our sweet home in the hands of a Realtor and moving to South Jordan, UT to be closer to a Temple.
Seven years ago our house looked like this:
