Tayto Park

We had a lovely day out at Tayto park last week. Tayto are a brand of crisps here and the Tayto company have created this fun park beside the Tayto factory. It's realy good actually, It has a lovely farm and great playgrounds. We had a lovely day although both Ian and Andrey suffered a bit with the  heat. It was a very warm day.



And we got a free gift of 18 packets of Tayto crisps.

New Calling

On Tuesday February 22nd the President O'Farrell, the Stake President Caled Ian to be the Bishop of Clonsilla ward. To say he was surprised would be an understatement. I think he was the only one though. I wasn't surprised and had been expecting it.
I feel that the Lord started to bless our family immediately. It's been a busy time. Ian has been out a lot more, I've been at home alone in the evenings a lot more. Sunday's are long for him. But I feel and increase in spirituality in our home and I feel very blessed.
It's great to serve the Lord. I'm sure there will be challenges and difficulties but all these things are sent to help us learn and grow.
