This song was inspired by a prayer that Gordon B. Hinkley gave in 2000. I think it is so beautiful, and knowing that it was recorded the day before he passed away makes me wonder if he had the chance to hear it?(probably not but in a perfect world just maybe :)!!) Please take the time and listen to the song its so pretty and powerful at the same time.

Also on this site there are so many things to find from spiritual thoughts and many many church tools.. If you go and listen to the music devotional there is a remembering Gordon B. Hinkley that I thought was great to hear. Enjoy!!! I sure did.

34th Birthday!!
Yes it is true another year has come and past for me, but this year we had fun James and the kids somehow found a Wii and got me one for my birthday!! I had actually heard of this game system only a couple of times once when my friend Shanda had told me she won one in 2006, and then again around Christmas when my sister-in-law mentioned that she was hunting one down for her mother, and recently my sister bought one for her hubby for his birthday... I did not know about this game system really till my sister was telling me all about the fun they were having... I have to say thanks Steph for all the fun tidbits about the system, and giving James the Idea of what to get me for my birthday.. I am having so much fun bowling and tennis.. We have found several games we like and that are great for the kids... Happy Birthday to me to me !!!
Fun with cousins!
When we were back in Phx this past weekend for Caleb's baptism the kids had a blast.. As you can see there Uncle Preston hooked up there wagon to one of their Quads and took them for a spin.. I was laughing so hard only because when the boys had their chance they kept yelling faster faster!!!

Hanging out with Dad!!
4th article of fatih!!
4 We believe that the first principles and aordinances of the Gospel are: first, bFaith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, cRepentance; third, dBaptism by eimmersion for the fremission of sins; fourth, Laying on of ghands for the hgift of the Holy Ghost.

My family and I had the honor to attend our Nephew Caleb's baptism this past weekend. He just turned 8 in January and seemed to be ready for this day to come. The week prior I took the time to ponder the meaning of baptism and remembered my own experience on my baptismal day. I remember the joy I had in my heart. I also remember that I was in such peace with my decision, and now know the wonderful things that come from this gospel. I remembered that I was so happy to have the family come from far away to be witnesses to this occasion in my life. I have to look back and even though it was only 6yrs ago I felt those same warm feelings of love, kindness, overwhelming emotions that are hard to explain.. I was so proud of my nephew that he knew that his Heavenly Father wanted him to be baptized, so that one day he can return home to him again. Way to go Caleb!!

Praise to the man!
I am grateful for the man Gordon B. Hinkley who has passed away, but I do know that he is up sitting next to the prophets before him. I have been overwhelmed with his passing, and talking to my oldest who is 6 feel that his work is not done. Gordon B. Hinkley has done a great many things that will continue to go forward. I am so blessed to have had his guidance for these few years as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I say praise to the man, because he had a good life, and was such an uplifting person to hear and see. Katelynn was saddened too, but said "mommy that means he is with heavenly father and Jesus Christ what an honor he will have". I thought WOW she is right he is up there right now looking down upon us, and conversing with the lord about his great deeds... The love that I have for our beloved prophet will continue with the fond memories of his work here on this earth, and I do have to say I will miss his humor at General Conference.
