Rainy days and kids...

                                                                they go together.

Whip Cream Party

What more can I say? I haven't laughed sooooo hard in so long!

A mouse in the house?

Today I was slicing bell peppers for dinner and look what I found!           Made me happy all day!

well-seasoned

Today I cleaned out, straightened and organized my spice cabinet. I have determined that I have a year supply of most spices.

I mean, 2 jars of poppy seeds and basil. 3 jars of tarragon, cream of tartar and dill weed. Oh imagine the possibilities.

Really-variety is the spice of life...and I am grateful that there are spices in the world to enhance our foods.

(Did I mention that I have over a pound of coriander?)

Todays grateful moment

The first chilean miner has just been rescued. We all sat around the TV watching while the capsule was slowly pulled up-in almost silence.

Grateful for technology-nations working together for the common good.

Tears of joy filled the miners' family's eyes...and mine.

Finding Gratitude

Today,  the testimony meeting at church was pretty incredible. The testimonies were powerful and the spirit was very strong throughout the meeting. Near the end of the meeting, I realized the sleeve on my shirt was wet. I looked down to see why, and saw my 11 year old daughter, whose head was resting on my shoulder, had eyes brimming with tears.

How thankful I am for my sweet, sensitive daughter.
