I'll be presenting at the Close To My Heart Album Retreat in Salt Lake City, Utah on November 6th. I love CTMH, the company, the products and most especially the consultants. Come hang out with me!
Five Things Photos
If you're like me and you're rather an on again, off again type of memory keeper, then you'll LOVE this super EASY method for capturing the present personality and interests of family members or anyone else (say, friends, roommates, etc.)
Pretty Painted Pinecones
I live in Eastern Washington, which is known for an abundance of Ponderosa Pine and the pine cones? To die for. Every year in September, they begin dropping to the ground and it's almost as if there were candy strewn on the ground, free for the taking.
Fifteen Years of Fake Nails.
Wow! The day you look at your hands and realize you're old. Age spots and wrinkles and prominent veins and don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining at all. In fact, I'm very grateful for these hands and the stories they tell of adventures in cooking, cleaning, crafting and so much more.

A story about opening doors.
Watch the super-cool story that inspired my first sprinkle challenge.
I'm bringing sprinkles back!
I love and use sprinkles. Not just the candy kind, but also the kind that involve intentional acts of awareness, compassion, curiosity and creativity. I call these everyday sprinkles, and I'm bringing them back!

Because He Lives!
I love this Easter holiday.
I love going to church and singing (as loud as my kids will allow) the hymn, Christ The Lord is Risen Today(chorus: Hallelujah!) I love this video that reminds us that because of Christ Jesus we will be resurrected and we have the opportunity to repent, over and over and over again.
Ginger Bunnies
I'm certain that I have blogged about ginger bunnies before (I have yet to unearth a previous post) but I want to revisit this story, publish my fist-ever scrapbook page about these cookies, link to a recent post I contributed to familysearch.org and then share some more recent photos, along with additional ideas for preserving and sharing this kind of holiday tradition over time.
