New church website!

I saw this and thought what a wonderful way to share the gospel through the Internet. This website was put together very carefully and with much thought. I keep finding more and more to read up on.. The media's are also very good, but I find them a bit choppy, I had to pause and replay a couple of times for it to be smooth I wonder why that is. I love the fact that we can share these things with our non-member friends, and hope that their questions will be answered. I know I do not always have the best answers for things, and now I have two websites that I can direct them too. Hopefully all of my friends and family will take the time and look over this new website. I thought it was worthwhile.. http://jesuschrist.lds.org/SonOfGod/eng/

“A Prophet’s Prayer” by Ashley Harris

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!!



This is so cute I just had to share... James came home from work the other day and decided to munch on some chips.. Well his two girls wanted some too... For those of you who did not believe me that Savannh loves Hot Cheetos here she is sitting next to Dad eating Hot Cheetos with Katelenn...

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!!

Dress Up!!


Playing with Savannah is very easy. She likes to play kitchen and dress up... Today she wanted on the beads and the shoes which is a new thing for her .. She would spin around and want to see herself after I took a picture.. Look out world here comes Princess Savannah!!!
