"Words of wisdom I needed right now"


"Always remember that women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are coarse; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity."


This is a quote from my lesson for Sunday. It always strikes me that my Father in Heaven uses me as an instrument in my very own hands to teach me the things He knows I need to hear at very particular, specific times in my life. Words that I planned to teach others are actually meant for me. Hopefully the young women I am teaching this Sunday will benefit from these wise words as well!

Will I ever see them again?




The computers came much to the joy and excitement of Mitch and Abby! It has turned out to be a great birthday after all.

Happy Birthday to you!











Abby and Mitch celebrate their birthdays in September. It was kind of low key for the both of them, but they seemed okay with that. They must be growing up. Their busy schedules get in the way of big celebrations. They both decided this year instead of celebrating by throwing parties with friends, they wanted to put that money towards laptops, and are anxiously awaiting the arrival of their computers! Yay, I get the computer all to myself! Abby celebrated her birthday at The Club at St Albans with Ryan, Tracy, Stella and Jake, and Gee and Poppy. Last minute schedule changes gave us the evening off so we were able to celebrate on her actual birthday. Mitch celebrated at the Melting Pot this year. His favorite place. We had a great dinner and Gee and Poppy were able to go with us. YUM!

Caught up in missing Missouri

Hi family! Here are a few of the pictures from our adventure out to Missouri. I like Utah and I like school and everything, but I miss you all as usual.
