"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."

One of the many creatures we find around our house.
Last night we had some family come over. We made tinfoil dinner and did smores over the fire. It was a lot of fun and the weather turned out to be perfect!




Sam enjoying the lizard we found.

Carly, of course, wanted to keep it.

This little girl loves puzzles. She been working on a 100 piece puzzle at Naw Naw's house. I decided to kick it up a notch and get a 150 piece. She did pretty darn good with it. She probably did 80% all by herself. I'm glad I found something that will actually keep her occupied for longer than 10 minutes!

Love the little lizard friend. Tinfoil dinners are the best, you will have to make you a nice little firepit like they have at redcliffs. Carly does love her puzzles she gets that from Grandma Great.

Puzzles, what a great idea! I'll have to try that one.

Where in the world did you get that purple shirt of Carly's? Andrina would love it.

When we come to visit one day I am requesting tin foil dinners.

ha ha! Puzzles are great! I got the purple shirt at good old Wal-mart. And hopefully we'll have the tin foil dinner thing perfected by the time you get to come visit!
