Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf’s talk was inspiring and uplifting and I loved it. I worry that it might be cast aside as “only for the youth” but I believe it is for each and every one of us. He may address the youth at times, but I know I needed this message as well. There …
This year we are shaking up our read alouds a little bit. Jacob really enjoys his read alouds and we just weren’t ready to give those up yet. However, I couldn’t figure out how to make the timing work. I know most homeschool families do one read aloud as a whole family, but I have …
Ben lost his first tooth! Ben had quite the evolution from when he discovered his tooth was loose, to when he lost it! Last week, when it started to get wiggly, he was not okay with it. He did not want any fooling around with it. But then, a couple nights later, I was helping …
FAMILY FUN! This month we went down to Morrison to visit Dinosaur Ridge! This place is so cool. We went here a long time ago (click here to see when Jacob was just a wee little lad!) and it was just as fun as we remembered. Jacob, Sarah, and I have been studying paleontology in …

My birthday came and went in a blink! But I am so grateful for my family and friends that made it special for me. The years truly go so quickly and I am doing my best to try and savor them with all of my favorite people.
Sarah Esther, I cannot tell you how very proud of you I am. This was such a very special kind of day. Some days are more happy than others. Some days are more exciting than others. Some days are more important than others. But this was one of those really important, happy, exciting days all …
General Conference Oh sweet conference. My love for this weekend seems to grow every six months. The last couple months have felt chaotic and just FULL. And it was so refreshing and filling in the best way to spend a weekend with absolutely nothing on the calendar but time spent as family, watching and listening …
A couple weeks ago we were able to go to Utah to celebrate the marriage of Megan and Linda. It was a beautiful day and we were so happy we could be there. We love you both and wish you the very best 🤍 *** Can’t wait to see all the pictures! ***
