Recent Visits

Reva's family has a tradition of taking gorgeous Easter photos in new Easter clothes. Reva was determined to follow the tradition, and Solei was equally determined not to. We took LOTS of pics. These are my best ones. Who do you think won?



'Mike and Ike' as Grandpa John calls them.

I once painted Aaron inside a box, and couldn't resist capturing these two the same way.
Handsome guy!


I only took a few pictures of Eli, cause everyone else was taking a ton of them. It turns out that the pictures I took were movies. Google does not like my movies!!! So, just imagine a cute Eli that came to visit or go to his link on the side of this page. He was dancing.
LOVE MY KIDS!!!

Mission for Mother


Yesterday one of you was talking to me about teaching children boundaries. I would recommend reading the book I gave to each one of you called "Mission for Mother, Guiding the Child" by Dr. Allred. It was the textbook for the BYU class CDFR 445. The class was so amazing that it's the only class I took that I remember the course number. The class professor authored the book. All of my kids were raised using his philosophy. It's great!!!
Also, when I was a young mother, once a month they had a class in RS about how to be a good mother. I have all the old lesson manuals and would like to share them with you. Any good ideas on how to do that? Another blog??? Then it could be a discussion.
