Ensign Article

There's an article in the Ensign this month that to me was particularly touching.  It is written by Diane Terry Wolf and is titled "Putting My Hands In The Lords".
This article is about how she got through the sudden death of her husband 25 years ago.  It's a special article for my family and I because the accident she speaks of was one my own dad was a part of.  He was duck hunting on Utah Lake one Nov. with his good friend when a storm came and the boat capsized and they were left floating in freezing water.  My dad survived, but his friend Bryan did not.  He left his wife pregnant with their fifth child.  Later my mom was pregnant with my youngest brother who was honorably was named Bryan.
I encourage anyone to read it.  It's great insight on how to deal with adversity in your life.

Style Paige!

So one of my best friends started this great toy company for little girls. She was so frustrated when she couldn't find any great toys for her little girl so she thought of this. If anyone has a little girl who loves to dress-up and design than they will love this!
Check out her website... it's just up and running!

Brrr...!

This is why school was cancelled Wed, Thurs, and Fri last week.  We are freezing here!

Here's to six years of Iowa winters!
