Let there be light!

Yay! We finally changed the light fixture in the bonus room. Although it's not the most flattering of lighting, at least we can now see up there! A big ol' thank you to my man for installing that little bugger. Mister, you are magnificent!

NEW LIGHT......

....OLD LIGHT

HANDSOME HUBBY INSTALLING NEW LIGHT FIXTURE. When he rolls up his shirt sleeves...exposing his forearms...Mmm Mmm Mmm! I love that look on him!

Grandbaby # 15 is here!

Emmet William Bang came into this world yesterday morning. We are so happy to have you here little one!

Snow!

This is what we woke up to this morning. The culdesac from our bedroom window. Just glad it wasn't snowing last night when we drove home from the Temple...'cause people up here get a little cray-zee when it snows!

Paradise

I swiped this from my step-daughter's blog. Thanks Erin! I love it and I think you might also if you are a fan of Jon Schmidt, Steven Sharp Nelson or Alex Boye. Enjoy!

More of God's artwork

This was the view out my bedroom window last night. It was taken with my cheapy phone camera so this picture doesn't do it justice, but the Puget Sound was fuchsia and the clouds were a bright pink. It was beautiful! Unfortunately, there is a glare from my bedroom light....but it was quite a sight!

Comfort and Joy

I was sitting in sacrament mtng. on Christmas morning, seated next to me was one of my darling little primary girls with her family. As I listened to my stepson Christopher sing his solo, a wave of emotion took me over for a moment. The combination of missing my children, juxtaposed with the joy of being in that moment, and hearing Christopher's beautiful voice, brought uncontrollable tears. Then that sweet little 8 year old sitting next to me, put her arm through mine and handed me this picture.

What a sweet little blessing.
