I have been finding such delight in my early morning scripture study this year. I have not developed a love for the Old Testament like I have for other books of scripture, so I decided that this year my goal would simply be to learn to love the Old Testament. I know that it testifies of Christ, just like the […]
Today I’m sharing short and sweet reviews of the six books I’ve finished in the past month. What have you been reading lately? I’m always looking for recommendations! The Ocean At the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman This book had a very A Wrinkle In Time feel for me. Kids and unexplained magic. Bizarrely creepy, but not over-the-line […]
“He counts the stars and calls them by name.” Based on Psalm 147:4, this beautiful print is a perfect reminder of God’s love for you. This listing includes three high resolution PDF copies of this image so you can print 4×6″, 5×7″ and 8×10″ files. I used the 4×6″ to add as a tip-in to my scriptures above. Print 4×6″ […]
Valentine’s Day is one of my favorite holidays. Not because we do anything big or splendid around here (we really don’t), but because it’s a chance to focus on and love my husband and kiddos a little more intentionally. I bought some sweet little mailboxes , one for each member of our family, years ago and we set them out each […]
“And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to […]
I am headed into my fourth year of creating art every single day. This daily habit has brought so much joy to my life as well as challenged and expanded my artistic talent like nothing I’ve ever done before. This year I am shaking things up a little bit, but not really. I have decided to continue making art […]
I have been hard at work lately on a new set of Scripture Sketchnotes for you! They coincide with the outline for the Fourth Sunday Relief Society and Priesthood lessons. The topic for these lessons for the next six months is The Sabbath Day. The idea of studying one topic for six months is right up my alley. I’m a […]
Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman This book made me feel all the feels. I wanted to ignore all other responsibilities until I’d finished it. Eleanor is such an endearing, lovable character. Her story is so difficult to read at times, but also inspiring as she overcomes her upbringing and learns to make friends. Because we served as a […]
I have always loved spending time writing in my journal. Even as a young girl, I wrote down all the important (and not so important) things that happened to me. It’s cathartic for me to think back through the day, remembering the good along with the bad moments. It’s a great way to settle my brain and process the day […]
I am not a fan of New Year’s Resolutions. The idea that we can, with one sweep, change our entire lives is ridiculous. But GOALS are different. I look at goals as a list of projects to accomplish within a certain time period, or bite-sized daily steps to reach a big milestone. Yes, goals are my favorite. I’ve been taking […]
