Sendai refugees: It’s the power of blogs to the rescue again! This blogger posted about experiencing the Japanese earthquake and received two comments from mothers of two of the refugees. So with their names in hand, this blogger traveled over to visit the “American Refugees from Sendai” and delivered “hugs” from their mothers. Not surprisingly, there were many tears. Click to read more about this sweet act of service.

Sacred Grove: This blogger finishes up her “Four Seasons in the Sacred Grove” with some gorgeous autumn photos. And did you know that “it is not permissible to take leaves from the Sacred Grove - they are needed for nutrients in the soil. So, pictures are the way I take leaves home. Aren't they beautiful?” Incredibly so. Check it out!

9 B’s: I loved this simple yet elegant printable depicting President Hinckley’s "9 B’s." And it’s free. Just click to download and print!

FHE idea: Get your thinking caps on for this fun FHE idea — it’s President Monson Jeopardy! Using this blogger’s template, your family can learn about what instrument he has but never learned to play, how his brother ruined his engagement surprise and some inspirational quotes from the prophet. This is a darling way to help your family get in the mood to listen to general conference.
