Moments That Matter Most

Happy Mother's Day!

  Wishing all you Mothers, and our own Mothers a very Happy Mother's Day!  There is nothing more rewarding, and challenging at the same time then being a mother.  :)  I thought  Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said it beautifully... if you have a moment read his talk "Because she is a Mother."  Love his words.  Here's the Link:  http://www.lds.org/general-conference/1997/04/because-she-is-a-mother?lang=eng

Fun Gift Ideas...

    The hustle and bustle of this Joyous Holiday Season is now upon us! While this is a time full of Joy and Happiness, this wonderful Holiday can also cause some to stress. There's so much to do! Shopping, wrapping, baking, parties... sometimes the list seems to never end! One of those things often found on our “Christmas To-Do List” is serving those around us, and creating fun little gifts to give to our friends and neighbors. Well here's a bundle of ideas that hopefully will make crossing that particular item off your list a little easier this year...

We Love You Natalie!

A Dear friend died October 16th, 2011

in a blink of an eye.

A friend is someone we treasure,

for our friendship is a gift.

A friend is someone who fills our lives,

with beauty, joy and grace.

And make the world we live in,

a better and happier place.

You are an inspiration and were truly an amazing person who made such an impact on those around you.  Thank you for all you have taught us.  We are better people for touching shoulders with you.  We didn't ever imagine a day without you.  Our hearts are torn apart.  God gave us such a wonderful gift and how blessed are we to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.

A farewell is necessary before we can meet again...

...and meeting again is certain for those who are friends.

This simply says we'll miss you until we meet again.

LOVE YOU NATALIE!!!
