Christmas was so fun this year! Five of our children were able to join us for a few days, and it made Christmas for me. We had a wonderful Christmas day....Delicious dinner and tons of goodies. On Christmas eve we had a special little family home evening and centered our thoughts on the Savior. The Spirit was with us and we are so thankful for our Savior Jesus Christ. Merry Christmas to everyone!

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm a late bloomer to all this technology stuff, but thanks to my daughters I am joining the 21st century. I am Mom to eight children and the grandma of 26 and a Great Grandma to 4. Our life has been a whirl raising a big family but now life has changed since all our children are grown up and married. We have settled into this beautiful and peaceful life. My husband and I enjoy serving as ordinance workers in the Manti temple and now in the St. George Utah temple, 2 days a week, I love teaching in our ward Relief Society and being a member of the Young Women presidency, and singing high soprano with The Southern Utah Heritage Choir. We have spent our free time horseback riding and enjoying living in the country, and now so enjoy living in St. George, keeping busy and happy! I am so loving this world of blogging...meeting such wonderful women across the world.. (sisters really), has brought me so much joy and restored my faith that there are good, even great women in this world yet! Our absolute joy in life is our children and grandchildren.
