I Love Folsom

I love Folsom for many reasons, like great school, good friends, a fabulous Ward with the Sacramento Temple next door to our chapel. I've been able to go most Fridays to the temple while the kids are in school. I also love the wildlife, like the wild turkeys that live on the church grounds.
I love walking the bike trails. While Shawn Oddou was still visiting us this summer we went and picked wild blackberries on the trails near us, making 18 pints of jam, a fruit cobble with lots of extra berries.


I have been walking in the mornings with Lizzy and Bekah to school and then going on from there. I love the golden prairies and dark green oak trees we have here, I think it's so beautiful!
The drive from my house to Heather's in Sonora is one of my favorites, we go down Hy-way 49, there are rolling hills of golden grasses, dark oak trees and old fashion mining towns.
I have also been spending time working on memorizing the seminary scriptures this year, I walk around Folsom in the trees with my scriptures on my iphone and have been able to memorize many of them including JSH 1:15-20! I just love being out in nature working on the scriptures, it it helps not having the distractions of my home.
I would love it, if any of you came see our beautiful Folsom!
