Christmas tree's 2015


This year getting our tree we had a blast until Braden got stuck. But, we got him out and then we had a blast!! Until Braden got stuck. But,we got him out and then we had a blast... Until.... But... And so we loaded Braden up with firewood found a beautiful tree that me and the girls, with the help of Chance, cut and dragged 1/4 of a mile....I didn't realize we'd cut such a heavy tree until I dragged it the first 1 foot!!! But we're tough, we got it most of the way before Dad took pity on us and drove to where we were. 
With Braden loaded with wood we figured things would go smoother we piled into the pickup to head home we were having a blast until Braden got stuck.... 
But hey I got a good senior picture of Caib👍🏼and I'm sure we'll make it home...eventually!

He Knows


I've been so aware of the spirit today, Roger and  his councilors gave  excellent talks in sacrament meeting . In fact I have been blessed to have felt the spirit within me all week. I've been praying for direction and guidance from the spirit, the response has been sweet. In this world where there is so much evil and filth. Where the Devil is making his selfish greedy desire to control and rule more evident than ever. the Lord has and can fill our lives with the beauty of his ways. I feel Him near me. I love Him. I don't know how it works but, I know that He knows me and he understands and as I lift the chin of my heart and deny fear in any form to control me, He can make me aware of his ever present love and fill me with power.

Let Go My Finger

Let Go My Finger

Momma, please be patient, I'm such a little guy,
But I'm letting go your finger, to walk, to run, to try.

I'm not scared I'll slip and fall and scrape my little knee,
I need you, mom, to just let go... Let go and trust in me.

See mom, now I'm walking. We did it. See me go! 
Now I'm free to run and jump, and swim, and play, and grow. 

Those cuts and bruises heal, mom. Don't worry, I'll be fine.
'Cause you'll be there to pick me up. How glad I am your mine.

Now, Mom, continue patience. I'm older now, it's true.
But still, please let go my finger, there's things I need to do. 

Yes, the bumps and bruises will hurt my spirit knee. 
But don't forget I'm not afraid. I need your trust in me. 

I see the worry in your eyes. I see your pain filled heart,
As you let go my finger and I get a shaky start. 

Now momma, don't you worry, you've taught me wrong from right.
And how to rise again when I've fallen in the fight.

Yes, sometimes I'll fall harder and be beaten black and blue,
But know that I will rise again as I feel that trust from you.

One day, Mom, you will look at me. You'll see how much I've grown,
Because of all your trust in me and all the love you've shown.

Let go my growing fingers, mom, trust and let me grow,
This spirit that's inside of me is stronger than you know.

More cakes


Cakes I've made!!

Chancee's chattering

Chance had a bad dream it scared him to death. So there I was at 6:00AM talking to him about how to deal with bad dreams..."have you said a prayer?" I asked. "You know that will help the most" I say. I know he responds. I than proceed to talk.... Apparently more than I realized because after I'd talk for a bit he looks at me and says "are you done, mom?" "Why?" I asked "are you tired of listening?"  "No" he says "I'm just done listening!!"
