The Prophet


I just had to mention the death of a great man, The Prophet, Gordon B. Hinkley. His loss is bitter/sweet since we know that he truly was welcomed with "Well done though good and faithful servant." I only hope to have some of his qualities when I meet my maker and he will accept me for who I am. This man has been the prophet since I was in high school and has had an enormous impact on my life. I am sure that many, many people can say that! My prayers are with his family. What a wonderful life lived and what wonderful things he saw in his lifetime of 97 years. Going on 98! Thank you for your service President Hinkley!

Halloween Cont.


Don't know what I did on the last post but it messed something up. So here is the picture that is covered.

Halloween!





It is a bit late but I am not sure any of you saw my girls in their costumes! These are my neighbors costumes and they are beautiful! I am so glad she let us borrow them! They had so much fun! Notice with Sophie, mom bought her a new lamb to go with her costume. But the smile appears when she is holding her own raggedy teddy! She is so attached to that old thing. Thank you Aunt Carly (my sister) for being the teddy bear aunt! She has chosen both of my girls favorite teddys.

The girls!





OH my girls! What character they have! They are so full of life and are the joy of mine. Here are some pictures as we tired to love the last few days of fall at the park in October. I am so glad that they have each other and the they enjoy playing together so much! They have a hard time when they are apart. It is a mother's wish that this continues....we shall see. Aunt Chelsea (my sister) and Uncle Tim took the girls on an outing to the aquarium and bought them some new gloves and hats while having lunch at the mall. The girls didn't stop talking about it for weeks! They are posing here with their new attire!!

Finally getting on board!


I have finally decided to join the blogging world! I enjoy reading other people's so much that I thought I better get going myself. This seems like a good way to keep a journal too! You people are geniuses! Well I hope that I can be as entertaining as some of you are and one day I hope to be a writer like Sarah Smylie is. I love your blog Sarah!
