More about me than you ever wanted to know…..
My friend, Safire, tagged me last week. Woohoo! Another one! :) It makes days like today easier for me. I don’t have to think about what I’m going to post. So here we go. Lots of questions about ME! 1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?My mom named me after a girl that she had babysat…

20 Essential Ideas to Help Create a Better Family–Part 3 of 4
Day 3–5 Ideas to Help You Create a Gospel-centered Home The third day of Randall Wright’s lecture on creating a better/stronger family was probably my favorite. He based his model of a good, successful home on the temple (how it looks and how it functions). Think about it! Even if you’re a member of another…
