Jaxon It's Your Blessing Day!

This day was so incredible! It was nice to see lots of people there to support Micah, Mandy and Jaxon. You could just feel 'the love'. :) I put together a smilebox slideshow of this awesome day that they blessed their son, Jaxon. I was so proud of Micah in using his priesthood so lovingly! He not only blessed his son but he blessed everyone who was able to witness this! Thank you Micah and Mandy for inviting us! We love YOU!

What a Precious Sealing!!





I truly had a most wonderful weekend. I wished I had pictures of the sealing of my son, Micah to his wife, Mandy and then to their son, Jaxon in the Timpanogos Temple. I will always cherish the pictures that my heart took. I remember seeing Micah's eyes looking at the woman he loves for all eternity. As his mother, I recall many times when I would see gratitude in my son's eyes and I was able to see that precious same look as he gazed in his wife's eyes! His hands were like when he was a baby, were as stocky as I remember it when I first held his hand as a baby. It made me cry to see him take his wife's hands into his stocky hand, as they came to the altar. Then to top it off... there was their son, Jaxon's hand, stocky like his dad and just as cute as his dad's were at his age! They put his little big hand on theirs while it was still on the altar and sealed their son to them, as they became a family sealed for time and all eternity! It was so cute to see Jaxon smile at his mom and dad! I felt truly the spirit whispering how much God loved this family!!! Of course, I couldn't stop crying. I then had to pray harder that I won't let out a sob. I would've died in that temple that day, if that happened. :)

I got soo much to blog


Ya! My last blog was back in March?? Oh dear heart. Looks like I better step up my game. I am home today sick as a dog......blahlah moments. I wanted to make sure I blog on some really 'specially' moments that happened in not to far past that made a difference in my life like my grandson's Jaxon sealing to his parents, Micah and Mandy (who made a positive move in their relationship by being sealed in the temple) and his blessing by his loving father. ok ok... stay tuned.

A Day Not Promised to YOU




I love TODAY!

Today may be the only day I have.

What do I want to do?

Think. Think. Think.

I want to say I love YOU

to everyone that I will miss!

I want to bless their lives as they have

truly blessed mine.

~

That means that may take a very long while.

Like more then 24 hours, that's not even enuff,
even if I didn't sleep?

hm.

Okay, I know I would probably live yet another day and many more after
but
I have decided to humbly ask God to bless

my loved ones lives as they have done mine and more!

Now...

THAT is an EFFECTIVE way to do things!

He knows how to bless them more then I ever could!!
I'll just be his fumbling assistant.

I am so glad there is my loving Father in Heaven

to share my heart with.

I love You, Father.

You are the bestest Father a kid could ever have!
Can't wait to dance on your toes.
:)

Laughing Here


Somehow I seen my boys in this... I love them!

The congregation sat in silence as the fast and testimony meeting hit a lull. Jeff checked the clock---twenty more minutes until the meeting ended. He couldn't help but notice Tom nodding off next to him.

A mischievous idea popped into Jeff's head. He leaned over, nudged Tom, and whispered n a hushed tone, "Tom, wake up. The bishop just called on you to give the closing prayer.

Alarmed, Tom glanced up at the bishop, who gave him a smile. Tom stood up and rushed to the pulpit. The congregation eagerly awaited Tom's testimony as he folded his arms, closed his eyes, and proceeded to say the closing prayer. At the conclusion, Tom turned, shook the stunned bishop's hand, and exited the pulpit.

People still refer to that meeting as the one that got out on time. (Mormon Mishaps and Mischief,p. 82)
