The black hole

That is exactly how I feel about my house!  It is the largest black hole in the Universe and it is not as pretty as the picture depicts it being.  If you want anything lost, just bring it to our home and within a day you won't be able to find it until months later it seems... lol! 

For example:  Yesterday I had Raelene bring in the cord to the camera so I could upload pictures to the computer... today it is gone! The charger for the camera is gone.  How is this possible?  I only wish I knew!  And I wish I knew the solution to my problem.  Life would be so much simpler!

So I need to know for peace of mind... is my house the only black hole out there or are there more of these in the crazy galaxy?!

Happy Anniversary!

Today marks our 14th Anniversary!!  This will only happen one time that it is our 14th on the 14th... I have to say that I honestly love you more than I did the day we were sealed for Time and all Eternity.  We have been thru alot, and you have stuck by me through everything when others would have given up on me.  You have lived up to your saying every single day "Happy wife, happy life" and I am so blessed by you.  You text me every day calling me beautiful and that you love me.  I still look forward to your lunch phone calls!  I have grown so close to you these past years and am so grateful you chose me to marry such a handsome, sweet guy.

I look forward to 60 more years together!  Thank you for loving me.  For serving me, for being so patient.  I love you Ross Stevens with my heart and soul!

Digital Scrapbook... work in progress ( on baking)

I am trying something new.. posting a link to a digital scrapbook.  I don't hardly have anything on there yet, but will work at it gradually. I hope this works.  I have to make a correction though, I said that her dad used to eat it by the spoonfull and I was wrong.. he ate it by the handfull!  All I can say is I don't blame him for not liking to touch it!!

Take me out to the ballgame...

This year was Jerry's first year at sports.  First was basketball, now baseball.  For being his first year in playing...   He has improved probably the most on his team his coach said.  He has a lot of heart as well.  He reminds me so much of his Dad.  He loves sports and gives his all in everything he does.  I am so thankful that he has a Father to help him learn those important lessons and attributes that he needs in his life, not just in sports.  He will do great in everything he does.  I am so pleased with who he is, not just what he does.  He has his father to thank for this and I am so grateful!

Teaching Moments

I taught Jerry how to make Rolls today so that he could take some to his baseball team.  He did a great job! The most important teaching moments are not scheduled but spontaneous.  We are always teaching wether we realize it or not.  I am wanting to make more of a conscience effort of that.  I want to be a better example for my children.

I am reading more, we are now having story time where I read out of a book each day, studying our scriptures more as a family, teaching how to bake and serve others.  I pray that I will do better every day so that others will want to know more of Christ when then see me.  I want the same for my children.  I love them and feel so blessed to be their mother!
