#bethelight – Day 217

Today was the last day of school.  I decided to give my overworked and under-thanked friends a little "bling" for making it through the year!  Thanks Joanna for teaching me how to make these.  Clearly they put smiles on the faces of my friends at school.  Hope you all have a great summer!

Not My Responsibility

I've been thinking about people who struggle to find happiness lately.  I have my days when life feels crappy and I have my days when life is alright.The more I seek pure happiness the more I understand that those seeking happiness take personal responsibility for their words, their behavior, their actions, their mistakes, their ideas… Continue reading Not My Responsibility

#bethelight – Day 215 and 216

Yesterday was the last day of the World Theatre class and today is the last day for the production class.  I decided to give them treats.  I got some foods from the countries that we studied for the World Theatre class.  It was silly and fun.  I made cinnamon rolls for the production class.  Sometimes… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 215 and 216

Not the Wisest Choices

I am still unable to take a picture and record what I ate.  I have also found that a small lack in accountability has given me licence to "cheat."  For example, we went to the Tillamook cheese factory and bought my daughter squeaky cheese.  I love squeaky cheese.  I ate some.  I did pay for… Continue reading Not the Wisest Choices

Scripture Sunday

Journey to Be a Goodly Parent

Today I was studying 1 Nephi (a book I am very familiar with as I have read it multiple times).  I was impressed with Nephi saying he was the son of "goodly parents."  What made them "goodly?" I looked up "goodly" in the dictionary.  Here are a few of the definitions I found: Of good… Continue reading Journey to Be a Goodly Parent

#bethelight – Day 214

Went to the beach to support my kids who were involved with our friends sand castle competition.  I held the baby and kept him happy so that my daughter could feel more involved with her families team.  It was fun to watch my husband fly his kite and play with the grand kids too.  We… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 214

Family Friday

Busy week!

Once again it is dance recital time.  Sadly, without glasses I could not really see my beautiful dancer do what she loves.  My sound booth is just too far away.  Her sister took these pictures of her solo and some kind person took a picture of her in her ballet costume.  I do love to… Continue reading Busy week!

#bethelight – Day 213

Wow!  What a day!  I went to the school today thinking my day would be one way and it wasn't at all like how I planned. Today was graduation and the forecast said we would a 95-100% chance of rain... rain on an outdoor graduation.  I ended up spending the entire day working on getting… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 213

#bethelight – Day 212

Today I decided to be brave and enter my daughter's room and clean it.  She is off on a family adventure with her brother.  But her room could really use some TLC.  So far I've done 3 loads of laundry.  I thing I have three more to go.  Now, I sure hope she finds it… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 212
