Prop 8 is Finally Done, or so I thought...


Well the Prop 8 fight came to an end Tuesday night. It's been an amazing opportunity for our family to follow the prophet even when it took us tumbling out of our comfort zones. Knocking on strangers doors, discussing uncomfortable topics, calling at on Sunday afternoons and Family Home Evenings all because the Lord sent his servants to fight this fight. Kern County had the highest voter turnout in the state and I thank the quick feet of my little Isabel and Olivia who ran door hangers and Emma and Abby who used their cell phones for good and called total stangers to remind them to get out and vote! The fight continues as protesters rage at the doors of our temples... "these are the best of times...these are the worst of times..." I've heard that somewhere and it's true here.

Amazing,amazing. But what a great opportunity for the kids to see what it's like to fight for their beliefs. We non-Californians appreciate all your hard work!!!
