My Builder is home!!  Hes so handsome and so kind and my very best friend.

A road trip is in order!!  Its time I see the belly bump in Logan!

Joe- my night in shining armor this week...rescuing me in my time of need and distress.  Bless him and his dear wife.

Rob- for his concern and care and his helpfulness and speedy plumbing skills!

Joseph Smith- the prophet who restored the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the earth. I grew to love and revere him even more this week!!  via

Sister missionaries- spending every day with them last week was a gift and a blessing to my life- and to the life of a dear friend who is searching for the truth.

Patriarchal Blessings- I was 18 yrs old when I received mine- and it grows more powerful and influential in my life the older I get!!

Lunch and errand with my good mom.

A foot rub- until it hurt no more!  (The Closer gets him to the couch- and from there he instinctively goes for my feet....BLESS HIM!!

Miracles- people and places set right in front of my nose- just when I need them.

Friends- that want to play - even when I cant seem to pull it off properly.

Zoey and My Builder- you should see the happy reunion!!!

Grandbabies- calling on the phone or stepping through the front door. Bliss

Pinterest- yet another creative outlet and social media site and an addictive waste of time. (did I say that out loud?)

I'm  still Pepsi free- its almost 2 months now.  BUT...there is still never a day that goes by that I dont think about it and sometimes long for the cooling, delicious taste of it!! Discouraging. But my dad would be proud of the character building going on in me!!

Peaches- for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, and just 'cause!! Yummy!!

Facebook- for it keeps me scantily in touch with my son in Europe.  Crumbs..but better than nothing!!
