#bethelight – Day 141

Today I drove and drove. My act of kindness was to drive the speed limit. Some of the plates I drove today, the speed limit is faster than other places I drove today. I have decided that in southern Idaho they make the speed limit 80 mph out of kindness. That is one boring drive.… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 141

It’s a Big Week!

What a week!  I have spent the majority of it in bed!  A sickness hit me like a ton of bricks.  My chest hurts.  I cough non-stop.  I had a fever, but that has calmed now.  My body aches, especially my head!  I didn't get out of bed for nearly 4 days.  I only got… Continue reading It’s a Big Week!

I am Raising Warrior Moms

Yesterday I was there to witness the birth of my grandson, Holland Maitland Jessop.  My daughter, his mom, is a warrior!  Her labors and deliveries are much faster than mine ever were.  She really "labored" all day in what experts call pre-labor.  It is a labor that is uncomfortable, makes you super tired, and moves… Continue reading I am Raising Warrior Moms

Another Opening, Another show

  The best way to describe the past week with the Boyack family this week is a mad dash to opening night of Lion King, Jr. at Central High school.  From finishing touches, to long rehearsals, to opening night and sell out houses, it has been a full week. First, the beginning of the week… Continue reading Another Opening, Another show

Family Fun this Week

It has been a couple of crazy weeks with the comings and going at the Boyack house. There was Valentine's day.  My friends gave me this cool mug and a gift certificate for a massage.  John gave me a potted plant and a nice card.  I got him some recorded books, but I lost them… Continue reading Family Fun this Week

#bethelight – Day 112

Today my act of kindness was the extra hours I put into painting the set with little, and then later, no help. My list is still so long. One more late night to go before I have an audience viewing this labor of love. I am super grateful for Joy (a sweetheart of a lady… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 112

Happy Birthday Ben!

Earlier this month the most amazing little boy turned 6.  Ben came into my life as my first grand child.  I loved being at his birth.  His mom was a champ! This sweet, happy baby has grown into a sweet happy boy. His Aunt Lilli cried when she found out he was going to be… Continue reading Happy Birthday Ben!

Week 2 – A week of Learning

Our missionary has been gone 2 weeks now.  We miss her.  Nothing is the same without her.  For example: Lilli and I went to the Regional Thespian Competition.  We rode the bus to Eugene.  I spent the day judging tech entries.  Lilli spent the day competing.  She did a great job for her first competition. … Continue reading Week 2 – A week of Learning
