Studying The Scriptures

 I came across this blog. and had to share.
http://beinglds.blogspot.com/2012/01/rekindle-your-love-of-scriptures.html
Anytime i find something about studying the scriptures i automatically perk up. I love studying the scriptures but am not always consistent at it. I am going to make a better effort this year to do so and record my personal revelation a bit better also.

I love those aha moments and want to record them so they sink deep into my heart.
I hope you will do the same.

Enjoy!

Following....Learning....Sharing

I recently started to follow this blog, http://dailyclosertochrist.com/
I want to be one of those women who when you look at me, you know i love Christ. When you see me you see him. Oh i have a long way to go. Short temper, smug attitude, German stubbornness, (thanks grandma) and so many more short comings. But i still want to be better, to work on these things and share the love of the gospel with others.
This year i want to read the standard works in a year.
My husband asked me what am i going to give up as my new years resolution.
I have thought about that long and hard.
But i can't come up with anything i want to give up.
The first thing that popped into my head was chocolate. Heck NO! Do you want me to be more stubborn, more short tempered, uhh, No i don't think that is a good idea. :)
But as i kept thinking about things i thought what can i add?
Eat more veggies? Yes!
Eat more fruit? Yes!
Exercise? Yes!
Read my scriptures daily? Yes!
Improve myself? Yes!
These are the things i want to add and in doing so i will give up a little time to do them.
So my answer to him will be time to do all these things.
So really the reason for this post, was just to share the link above and hopefully one of you will want to read the scriptures in a year AND Daily draw closer to Christ.
line upon line
precept upon precept
We are all on the path....... just at different levels.

Enjoy!

I loved this picture up Black Smith Fork Canyon. so k just wanted to share it. Love the mountains.

Fun at 3rd dam

Our fun day of picture taking up Logan Canyon at 3rd dam. It was so gorgeous up there. Can't wait to get back our family pictures. It was such a great day.

Weekend Fun!

Had an awesome weekend with my family. We had a family picture taken which i have been wanting to do for years. Crazy i know. But it finally happened. Now i can't wait to get the pictures back.
Here's my girls with Merrick.

And here is my hubby.  He was such a good sport about taking pictures and posing for so many different ones.

And here is Cheli and Akalia dancing or doing some type of exercise. They make me laugh.

And we painted pumpkins. What a mess................................................
But the kids loved it.

Akalia wanted the biggest one she could find. We could hardly get it in the cart.

And Merrick wanted this one. Of course his favorite one was the one he got at school!

And here is his cute little pumpkins. Love those faces.

And here is Akalia's ghost pumpkin. It turned out so good. OH, see that bluish green and brown blob behind the ghost. That is her other pumpkin she painted. Too funny!

We had a fun day. Here is Reena giving Merrick a ride on my new bike.

It was a beautiful fall day. Cold in the morning when we took pictures but nice the rest of the day. Here is one of the places we had our picture taken. Lived here for 25 years and didn't even know this existed. What a beautiful valley i live in.
Enjoy!
