An Eternal Perspective

It was 9 years ago today, I went to the temple for my own endowment. Although I have never married, it was the happiest day of my life. My favorite grandma had passed away about a month earlier, but she was with me that day. I know she was cheering for me from the other side of the veil.

When life tends to take over, we must remember the real reason we are here... to be tried, tested and prove ourselves worthy to live in the presence of our Heavenly Father.

I remember when this great temple was dedicated in 1986 by Thomas S. Monson, our living prophet.

I am thankful for my knowledge of the gospel of Jesus Christ, for my testimony and for the atoning sacrifice of our Savior.

Puppy Love

Freshly bathed with a princess bow!

How about that underbite?

Who could ask for more than unconditional love! I love these dogs... Sadee is my very favorite and Panther is trying to follow the rules.

A Sick Boy

The IV

He's out!

Monday evening after taking my mom to dinner, I took Tyler to urgent care for a migrane. The doctor was of no assistance and told us we should take him to the ER for a CT Scan on his brain. This made Tyler uneasy and he decided we should head to the ER. We got to Children's at 8:15 p.m., got a room at 11:00 p.m., they did an evaluation, asked lots of questions and decided there was no need for a CT Scan. They gave him an IV with prescription meds and fluids and released us to go home at 2:40 a.m. The headache was gone after the fluids and meds.

I am thankful for faith, prayers and modern medicine. I am happy Tyler is better and is back to his normal 15 year old boy behavior!

Happy Birthday to Mom!

Birthday!

Dinner at Olive Garden

Monday, May 11th was my mom's 67th birthday. I took her to dinner at Olive Garden, which was very delicious. It was just my mom and I for dinner. She is steadfast and a great example. She raised five girls on her own, is the mother to two angel daughters, and loves her 11 grandkids.

All that I am, I owe to my mother! I love you Mom!
