November- ALREADY!!!

Well, I can not believe it is already November. It has been a long time since I have posted anything, but the last few months have been really tough. So honestly--I was not in the mood to post anything. But things are getting bearable so I figured I would give an update on what has been happenin with the Fountains.

The last part of September up until 2 weeks ago were spent in the hospital, praying for Poppa's (Larry Fountain, James dad) recovery. It was a very emotional, scary and trying time, but thanks to the love of our Heavenly Father and the gospel we weathered through. It TRULY is a miracle that he is still here with us, we went from the doctors telling us on Monday night that's it, say goodbye. To Tuesday morning a complete, unexplainable turn around. Well the doctors could not explain it, but we could.

We love our Poppa so much. He is one of the most amazing and inspiring men I have ever met! He is an amazing example of how we should be living the gospel, he has pure faith, performs pure charity and lives his life everyday living the gospel principles to the best of his ability. This was further renforced by the hundreds (if not more) of people praying for him and writing letters of how Pop had changed their life, and what an amazing man he was. He has given either his time, his money, property and support to countless individuals both members and non-members in this area. James and I are always amazed at how many people we meet that once they find out we are related to Larry Fountain, they are telling us all that he has done for them and what a wonderful person he is. I feel very fortunate to have him in my life and very blessed that he is still here with us. We love you Poppa!
