Sneek Peek


A friend of ours took our family photos this year. It was 8 degrees outside and we had to pretend it was 80 instead. So cold. He has been working on the other photos but he sent this one to me as a sneek peek. Can't wait to see the rest!!!!

Wood crew







The mens group went out in teams to gather firewood for those in need in the community. This is our team who got 6 loads in one day. Way to go.

Weight loss and Bday gift











The start of my weight loss journey and photos of after or almost through...Sheradia was actualy taking a photo of the sweater scooter bought me for my Birthday. I picked it out and love it. Its so my thing. but its also the latest photo I have of myself and so many were asking me for before and after photos so here it is. I still have 15# to go but now that my matabolism actualy works like it is suppose to I am hoping that the rest comes off by itself.

Fall Blessings







We don't celebrate Halloween but neither do we want to sit back and let satan have his way with it either. So in an effort to take it back for God and back to its origins the girls and I came up with an idea. We made three sorts of cookies (ginger, chocolate chip, and oatmeal raisin) packaged them up real cute. and the girls hand wrote notes

for each one that said things like " we are so blessed to have you a part of our community. Know that you are loved." and so forth. Then they dressed up with a friend and went door to door but would not accept candy. Instead they told them they wanted to bless them and gave them a package with a hug and left. So fun to sit in the car and watch the reation from people and the imediate joy it brought to each one!! They did so well and I am so proud of them for being history makers and all the hard work putting these together.
