Did anyone see what I saw

I was watching Elder Worthlin's funeral Saturday, while I waited for an email from my professor, and saw a familiar face in the choir! Right there in the front row, the first man next to the women is a kid, now a man, I went to school with. I had to get out my year books but I found him. Depending on the year book his name is either David or Lyle Allen. MTC people are real people!!! I saw him again last night at the First Presidency's Devotional, front row, fourth man from the women,
Then at the end of the funeral, when the First Presidency and 11 of the Quorum of the 12 line up at the door and shake hands as the family leaves, I saw the Prophet shaking hands with one man like my teenage kids do. LOL I almost expected to see them bump fists!!
When I got home from school today, Steph was being extra urgent about me getting the car unloaded. I thought she must have to go to work or she wanted the car. As I was bringing in my last load she said "there is an envelope on the table for you." My first thought was okay so the mail came and there is something for me, big deal. Then taking into account her urgency to get the car unloaded, and I had asked her if she was supposed to work, I got more curious about the envelope on the table. Then I feared it was something from the courts, something more about the kids, visitation, my support.....When I looked at the envelop all that was written on the outside was "Karren" and poking out was money but I couldn't tell how much. I thought $20.oo. I was wrong! It was 10 times that-$200.00. No name, just "Karren." The kids were here when the envelope was dropped off but were pre-occupied so they didn't see who it was. Looks like they tried to desguise their handwriting 'cause it's real squiggley, like a sencond grader's. Thank you someone.

SWAT Team

SWAT Team
The SWAT Team from the local PD did some training in the house down the street. All the officers lined up behind the first guy who was holding a sheild, and they all marched to the house and "raided" it. There was a picture of a very buff sweaty guy with a big rifle just inside the door of the SWAT van.
