This video has alot of meaning for me because this couple is in my ward. They are a great example to all of us and we love them. I was so touched by this video and truly felt the spirit. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is true and when we choose to keep the commandments, keep our covenants and serve the Lord we will find true joy, happiness and success in our lives! I just had to share this on my blog. They are an amazing couple!

We went on a business pleasure trip to San Juan, Puerto Rico. It was alot of fun and we enjoyed ourselves immensley! We went last Tuesday, January 24th and arrived home Saturday the 28th. Fun times, especially getting to spend time with my wonderful husband. Quality time is at a premium these days and so it was really nice to have the time to spend together.

SHAMPOO WARNING: PLEASE READ!!!

A friend of mine on face book posted this and I just thought it was so hilarious and possibly true! Hee! Hee!

She said:

"I don't know WHY I didn't figure this out sooner!!!! I use shampoo in the shower.

When I wash my hair, the shampoo runs down my whole body, and printed very clearly on the shampoo bottle is this warning:

"FOR EXTRA VOLUME AND BODY."

No wonder I have been gaining weight.

Well! I have gotten rid of that shampoo and I am going to start showering with Dawn dish soap instead.

It's label reads:

"DISSOLVES FAT THIS IS OTHERWISE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE."

Problem solved! If I don't answer the phone, I'll be in the shower!

I just had to share on my blog because it is so cute and funny at the same time.

Newest Family Member!






This little sweetie is a new member of our family. I was having kitty fever. Is that a disease? I hope not. I know, I said I wasn't going to have anymore animals, but I just kept thinking about getting a kitty again. She is such a nice cat. We still have not decided what to name her. We may just take a few days to get to know her personality and then maybe a name will come. She loves to have her ears rubbed, she has a nice soft purr, and she is playful, but gentle. I love the cute mask on her face and her blue eyes. I think she is a keeper.

New Hairstyle!



















I really like the curly look. I had my hair done today. Had color put back in to cover my white/gray hair and then she taught me how to curl it for a different look. So as I am growing it out I can try a couple of different looks. I really do like it. Hope I can use the curling iron like she showed me. That is always the trick. It has been interesting growing out my hair and the responses I have gotten. I guess it is a different look for me, since I have most of my life had my hair short. It is kind of fun and makes me feel a bit younger. I guess you are only as young as you feel, but doing your hair, using a bit of make-up and striving to exercise and lose a bit of weight always helps with the looking younger business.


I almost feel like my little Josie and I look even more alike now that I have some curly locks like she does. She looks quite a bit like me when I was a child. Oh, to be young again. Truthfully, I really don't want to go back and relive my younger days. I really like where I am in my life. I have a great life. I have a husband who loves me, spoils me and is always there for me. I have five wonderful children, mind you, they are not perfect and neither am I, but I love then all no matter what, and I always will. I have been immensley blessed and I am so thankful for all that I am and can become! Like my blog says: "Live Each Season As It Passes!" I am trying to do just that!
