I am so excited about my new Garage Organization! My garage has always been a bit of an eye sore. It seems to be the collect all for anything that I don’t want in the house and I have not seriously organized it for several years! I give it a good clean out at least twice a year, but I have not organized things and de-junked for a long time! So it was well over-due for a good organization! (more…)

It’s time for the April 2016 Visiting Teaching Handout for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

This month the theme is “Daughters of Our Eternal Father”. I chose the quote from Carole M. Stephens that talks about that we all belong to and are needed in the family of God. I love the question that was at the end of this article, “How does knowing that you are a daughter of God affect your decisions?” That really makes you stop and think, does it not? (more…)

Happy Easter Everyone!

I hope that you are enjoying this glorious Easter day! I hope that you will take a minute to watch this Easter video from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It is a beautiful video that tells the spiritual Easter Story.

It is wonderful to know that when we have trials and problems…He is there. When we are happy and rejoicing…He is there. And anytime in between…He is there. All we have to do is reach out…He is there!

I hope that you all have a blessed Easter and that you will find peace in your hearts and in your homes!
