"In our search to obtain relief from the stresses of life, may we earnestly seek ways to simplify our lives. May we comply with the inspired counsel and direction the Lord has given us in the great plan of happiness. May we be worthy to have the companionship of the Holy Ghost and follow the guidance of the Spirit as we navigate this mortal journey. May we prepare ourselves to accomplish the ultimate purpose of this mortal test- to return and live with our Heavenly Father."

speaking of small creatures.....

Last Saturday we visited the park near our house. We thought we'd see if there were any fish in the pond. There wasn't. But we did find something else that was too cute to pass up. We took it home for about 10 minutes and then decided to take it back.






So cute!

Carly was a little skeptical, but she warmed up to it very quickly!

We read on the interenet and they seemed like too much high maintenance to take care of, I have enough to take care of right now, I don't need to add more. He (or she) was way cute though!

That was cute! I thought about if these fish EVER die that we would get a turtle...I remember Uncle Ray's. But if they are harder to take care of then fish... nevermind.
