Well, I’ve been waiting to order a new journal to write in, but I just never seem to get around to it, and my life is passing me by without my keeping a record of it.  I thought I’d better do a catch up before I forget too much.  I can’t actually remember what I’ve [...]

Hey everyone!   Anyone that reads my blog, probably already knows this, but we are expecting baby number 3.  We are excited and I am due in September.  I figure the baby will come when it’s ready, I’m not in any real hurry.  I’m just trying to keep my head on with the 2 kids I’ve [...]

Jonny boy is turning into quite the little boy.  More and more we are beginning to have real conversations with him and he is putting his discoveries into words.
For instance, Hans shaved his head a while back, but then started to grow it back in.   I likened it unto kiwi fruit.  Jon thought that [...]

Life has been interesting lately.  I haven’t blogged because I’ve been feeling less than chipper emotionally.  I want people that come to my blog to be strengthened and uplifted, but how can I lift others when I am feeling down myself?  It’s all very disheartening.  Last time I invited you all to stop by I [...]

I haven’t blogged in a while for various reasons, but I thought I would jump back in with posting our love story.  Laura over at Heavenly Homemakers is hosting a “carnival” of love stories and I thought this would be a fun one to join in.  So here goes…the story of how we ended up [...]

Lately, I have been searching, pondering and praying over what I could do to combat the problem of pornography.  Many years ago, when Hans and I were first married and living in BYU married student housing, I was privileged to hear JoAnn Hibbert Hamilton speak in our ward.  As the founder of http://www.strengthenthefamily.net/. I would [...]

I just updated my goals and wrote entries on my progress over at 43things.com.  I’m so excited about my new goals.  I have so much joy in my life right now and it’s so refreshing.  If you get a chance and feel so inclined take a look over there and let me know what you [...]

Things have been going well around here lately.  I’m not sure if it’s because the weather makes me ten times happier, I’m doing the right things or because a big trial is about to present itself in my life.  Either way, I’m doing my best to live one day at a time and enjoy each [...]

I hope you all know that this Tuesday is Election Day.  I also hope that you are all planning on voting and having your voice be heard.  I’ve always had a so-so attitude about voting.  This year, however, I got a very powerful email (at least for me) from my dear friend Sue.  After reading [...]
