Eva and open house for Kansas City Temple


Eva Dixon 1/25/12 

Hi, Thanks for the recipe, I will have to try them; they sound good.  Did you see the announcement of the open house of the Temple  in Kansas City Missouri  on April 7-21?   it is actually built in Liberty which is a suburb across the street to Kansas City.   My friend wanted me to come back for it and Edna wrote from Virginia, Wouldn't it be good it she could meet me there and we could go together.  She walks with a walker but I told her I would have to have a wheel chair and someone to push it,.  I could not ask my friend, she is 85, even though she does really well but getting chair in & out of a car then pushing it would be rough on her.   If wishes were fishes, we would all have a fry.  David and Eulale will be there.  He has to go for an inspection on the Stake Center again and they will be there for Eulale's birthday on the 18th.  It is so neat the Edna and her  son Dale are interested in going. I do not think I would be able to do it again; it took me two weeks to recuperate from last time  and it was only two days.  Too much sitting and walking ; my back does not like either one. 

How is AnneMarie?  and Todd?  I put both if their names on the prayer roll  today and Melanie and Mckala too.  When Will they get to Texas?      Have a good week,   love,  Eva
