I am a daughter of God!!!

"That man is a child of God is the most important knowledge available to mortals"

"I would charge you to say again and again and again to yourselves...."I am [a son or daughter] of God and by so doing begin today to live closer to those ideals which will make your life happier and more fruitful because of an awakened realization of who you are"

Harold B. Lee

"Always be the person that you were meant to be. Don't let harsh words from another lower your standards. If you don't stand for something then you'll fall for anything. Stay true to your faith at all cost. "

If this isn't your castle, then you're not my prince

I was sealed to my prince in the Oakland Temple years ago. I am so grateful for that special blessing. What a gift he is to me. A gift from above. We had Temple day last month and enjoyed the special day we spent together.

I am putting one of these beautiful pictures of the Lord's house on my daughters wall and putting the words underneath the picture that says, "If this isn't your castle then you're not my prince....



I think this is my favorite...

They are all so beautiful and say so much just from the outside of such a special place. The peace you find inside the walls of the Temple are beyond phenomenal. What a blessing to be sealed for time and all eternity to the man of your dreams....

Brina

I love you Sabrina. Your sweet spirit is so infectious. I get so much joy from watching you love others and seeing your kind heart.

This is a darling picture of you from when you were 18 months old.....

You were 4 years old here. A little doll baby!!!

Doing your hair was a lot of fun. You always looked so cute and very girly. I thank my Father in Heaven everyday for all my beautiful children. How blessed I am to have you.....

Knights Ferry

We went to Knights Ferry for Adriana's cheer pictures. What a pretty girl. I had to sneak a pic....

The boys came too.......Seeing this picture first might leave you confused until you see what took place prior to this....

I guess the feet swinging in the air left reason to "protect" themselves...

My boys are everything to me. They bring such joy into my life. They have a strong love for one another....

Fisherman

Christian and Hiram, with several other fathers, went deep sea fishing. They went to half moon bay fishing for rock cod. They left at the crack of dawn.
Hiram couldn't get his catch to smile for the camera.

"Open wide and let go of my fingers."

Now that is a fish. This picture will prove that this is no fish story. Great catch Christian. The boys had a blast. After the motion sickness settled, they had a fabulous time. Male bonding!!!!!

My Santa

Hiram played the role of Santa at our church Christmas party. He was so tender with the little children. Very few were afraid to sit on Santa's lap. I think it is his natural loving nature and kindness for all he comes in contact with. One sweet little boy brought his toy catalog to show Santa the exact toy he wanted for Christmas. It was cute.

Almost each year Hiram is asked to play Santa and he willingly does it. He has such a good heart and is always eager to help those around him. He truly emulates charity~ the pure love of Christ. How eternally thankful I am to have married a man with a quality like this.....

Born of Goodly Parents

I have been born of goodly parents. My parents came down from Utah last week to help our family with a move. How blessed I am to have such beautiful examples of service. They have always been there for me and love me unconditionally...

I will strive to be a more patient loving mother and follow in my parents footsteps to love my children and fast and pray for them in time of need. My relationship with my parents will continue to be more precious to me each day of my life...

Families are forever

My love for my family grows more and more each and everyday. How thankful I am that my family has been sealed together for all eternity. What would heaven be like without our families there to share it with. I am grateful for a Father in Heaven who loves me and wants me to return to Him someday. I want my life to be as clean as earth right after rain. I want to be the best I can, to live with God again........
