So I guess I’m ready to talk about the elephant in the room that I haven’t wanted to talk about and no it’s not the 2 feet of new snow that we just graciously accepted from the heavens. But oh how thankful I am for the glorious snow. Sorry all you snow haters but I LOVE […]Read Post ›
So.. it looks like my son made the best cookies EVER and delivered them to people?! If nothing else, having these bad boys delivered to your home would make you smile. But really, I am amazed at how selfless my son has become while putting his life on hold for two years and devoting all of […]Read Post ›
It is pretty amazing that my son writes home and tells me he is talking with drug lords and living in an area where there are shootings – and I am not freaking out! I know he is protected and I am so very thankful for the peace I have. God is aware of me […]Read Post ›
It is so great to have our Elder Anderson back in the States, AND he has a bike! Anyone that knows our family, will know that Nathan is right at home on the seat of a bike. The work is going well and he is serving, teaching and striving to bring hope and joy to others. Some dogs are cute […]Read Post ›
This is what happens when you send your son to the Mexico MTC a few weeks after having his wisdom teeth pulled. He complained about having something stuck in the hole where his tooth was, but of course was “fine” and didn’t need to see the dentist.

It has also been one year since the anniversary of April’s Family Disneyland trip […]Read Post ›

Yes, that was a BIG sigh…..He will be in Mexico for 6 weeks learning Spanish and studying the gospel of Jesus Christ at the Mission Training Center and then he will live and serve in central Washington for 2 years. I know it […]Read Post ›
