Something I Ponder Everyday ~

In families, it is sometimes hard to understand each other, and why we do things. We may not always think like another, or act like another. But, rather than question why
someone is not like us, maybe we could try to accept them as they are, and think of the good things about them or the great things they do, rather than focusing on the things that bother us about them. I find myself having to remind myself of this daily.


"So many of us make a great fuss of matters of small consequence. We are
so easily offended. . . . I plead with you to control your tempers, to put a smile
upon your faces, which will erase anger; speak out with words of love and
peace, appreciation, and respect. If you will do this, your lives will be without
regret. Your marriages and family relationships will be preserved. You will be
much happier. You will do greater good. You will feel a sense of peace that
will be wonderful."

A Happy Easter Shout-Out to all my Peeps!!


A Beautiful Easter Season !!!


















Here are some shots of the fun times we had for Easter. Sonia, Jaxson & Sarah came over early in the morning to have breakfast with us old folks! Bless them! We missed the rest of the family, as Joey, Em & Tess were at home in St. George, and the rest of the crew was wheelin' in Moab! Hope it was great weather for them, and that they will make it home safely!

4 Wheelin Heaven





With a big part of my family in Moab this weekend, for the Jeep Safari, I am remembering how much fun we had while down there just a couple of months ago. It was chilly - but beautiful. Can't wait to go again. Looks like Ethney enjoyed the ride !

Words of a Prophet


“May the sunlight of faith ever warm your hearts. May you grow in strength and capacity as the years pass. May your outreach to others be as that of the good Samaritan. May the service which you render be fruitful for good in the lives of others. May prayer be a part of your daily activity. May reading enhance your knowledge and increase your understanding. May you be true and faithful one to another, and may the years bring to you that peace which passeth all understanding, the peace which comes of following the precepts of the Master”-
Gordon B. Hinkley. 15th president of

Since this great man's passing, I have tried to honor him each day by reading a quote or thought that he left us.
I recently came across this quote, and it reminded me that I will miss terribly being able to hear him speak to us in conference in a couple of weeks. I will miss it, but will always have great memories of how he has influence my life, and will continue to do so, through his wonderful legacy.
