Thursday’s Thought-A Good Father is…

Today for my Thursday’s thought, I decided that I had better do one more Father’s Day quotes. I think that this one is so true. Good dad’s are sometimes hard to come by. I am so grateful for my own father and the great example that he is to my family and I. We all just love him to death! I am also grateful for my husband’s father. He too, is well loved by all of us!

This would be fun printed and framed for the father in your life! To print just click on this link: Father’s Day

I am also so grateful for my husband who was always there for my children as they were growing up…and is still there for them all the time. They still value his opinion on things from raising the kids to finances to sports questions and everything in between! It is so great that they feel like they can call him anytime and he will take the time to talk to them!

If you have a great father in your life, be sure to tell him how much you love and appreciate all that he has done for you!

Happy Father’s Day to all those great dads out there!

It’s time once again for the visiting teaching handout for my church.

This month the message is Divine Mission of Jesus Christ: Minister.

I really love this message this month, because so many great things happen when we minister to each other! We truly can be the answer to other people’s prayers and what a great feeling that is! I chose to focus on the quote from David L. Beck:

Thursday’s Thought-Sandwiches Need Chips…

May 29, 2014Printables, Quotes, Thursday's Thoughtschips quote, free printable, funny saying, printable, printable saying, quote, sandwich quote, sandwiches need chips shoulders do not, Schlotzsky's, Schlotzsky's chips, Thursday's ThoughtRita

My thought today comes from the courtesy of my bag of chips from one of my favorite sandwich places…Scholtzsky’s !

I think that there might only be one of these restaurants in Utah now, there used to be several, but they are hard to find now! :(

My husband and I eat here a couple of times a month! I love, love, love the bread that they make the sandwiches on! :) When I saw this saying, I just knew that I wanted to add it as one of my Thursday’s Thought. This is right up my alley!

So this summer, as you are eating chips with all of sandwiches, I want you to remember this little saying! :)

Have a great Thursday Everyone!

Thanks for Visiting!

It is Thursday once again, so it is time for my Thursday’s Thought!

I loved this thought the first time I ever saw it and I think that it sums up how I feel! If you have your loved ones around you, you pretty much have everything!

This is formatted to an 8 x 10 size for anyone that would like to print it. It would also be a great gift to frame it!

I don’t know about you, but I cannot believe how quickly the month of May is disappearing! With all the end of the school year activities, ballgames, and dance recitals etc, etc, etc, it seems like it is always such a busy month. Before we know it school will be out and we will be in the full swing of summer! I love summer and the warm weather and being outside for BBQ’s, s’mores, fireworks, parades and all of the flowers everywhere! So I say, bring SUMMER on!

Hope you have a great Thursday and that you have learned that being with those you love is enough also!

Thanks for visiting!

Thursday’s Thought-If You Have A Garden

May 8, 2014Flowers and Garden, Printables, Quotes, Thursday's Thoughtsflowers, free printable, garden thought, gardens, If you have a garden..., library thought, Marcus Tullius Cicero quote, printable, printable thought, quote, Thursday's ThoughtRita

Since I have been spending a bit of time out in my yard, I decided that I would do a thought about gardens! :) I have had this thought up in my office for awhile, but decided that it needed to be prettied up a bit. So here is my new version:

This quote is by Marcus Tullius Cicero.

I actually printed this out and put in a frame so I can now replace my old version with this new fun bright version!

I love planting flowers and I actually went with my dad yesterday to a nursery and we both got a couple of flats of flowers! His are to plant along his driveway, mine are to plant some more pots! I love planting pots…because you don’t have to weed them! :) I will take pictures when I get all of my pots planted.

The part about this saying that I have not done well with… is the library part. I have plenty of books to read, I just cannot seem to get to them! I love to read, but it is a luxury that I just cannot seem to find the time to do anymore. If I read for 20-30 minutes every morning, that is about all I get in! SOMEDAY…I will read more again!

Hope you all have a great Thursday!

Thanks for visiting!

First of all I have to apologize for the troubles that we had yesterday! A lot of you let me know that you could not see any of the images or navigate around the blog, and I appreciate all of the support I recieved. I think that we are now fixed up again! Thanks for your patience during our new facelift!

This month for your visiting teaching message to your sisters, you will need to pick your favorite conference talk to teach. There are so many good ones again this time that it is hard to pick! :)

Since it is soon going to be gardening time around here, I thought this would be a fun theme to work around, so I made my regular card, a blank card and a seed packet!
