Recently Nikaela and her family came to visit. We had SO much fun with them! We did lots of fun activities and still managed to say, “Oh, we never…” after they left. It’s just so hard sometimes to live this far away from them. They got here on a Sunday and the fun started immediately. [...]

I’m amazed to think that we have been in Utah for one whole year now. I’m reminded of that old adage, “The days go by like weeks and the weeks go by like days.” I have yet to update you on the holidays in my life, but I can’t help but feel as though this [...]

This past week our AZ daughter, Nikaela, and her sweet family came for a visit. We had so much fun! One whole week of great adult conversation. One whole week of snuggling Grandbabies. One whole week of big breakfasts, visiting fun sights, watching movies and eating popcorn. What a wonderful Christmas Gift! We were sad [...]

So this morning I have been missing my grandchildren. What a delightful thing grandchildren are! There is an emotion and level of feeling that come into your life when you have children that just cannot be described; it is the same with grandchildren. Suddenly life has more meaning, each moment matters, and you realize that [...]

I love the ordinary, simple and everyday treasures of life. Like my sewing machine. This little Kenmore is 20 years old this fall. I have never had it serviced or cleaned. I have read the manual through three or four times, but I still don’t understand all about tension or how to use the stretch [...]

It’s the little things that make life so worth it. Every now and then a big thing comes along and that makes it even more worth while; but day-to-day those small moments are what get me out of bed. Nikaela has been coming over frequently this week to re-finish some furniture. Her condo-conversion doesn’t have [...]
