We are a book-loving family. We read many books each month, but choose our favorites to share with you. We’re always looking for more books to add to our library bag (which literally burst at the seams as we left the library one day). I’d love to hear your recommendations!

Our very own copies (plus a couple dozen extra) of my new LDS Faith in God study guides arrived in the mail today. Despite all the proofreading, editing, re-proofreading, editing, and re-re-proofreading, I was terrified that they would be full of huge, glaring errors once I had a physical copy in hand. I am happy to say that was not […]
I have somewhat of an obsession with hidden hearts. It began when I was a child and my room was decorated with millions of tiny multi-colored hearts. And I mean millions.

I wanted to make something for the baby but was anxious to start, in case we lost him. I needed something easy, something that I wouldn’t have to think about or which could potentially add more frusration to my […]

We have been rather obsessed with the Olympics around here lately. I wholeheartedly admit to adding fuel to that fire. I have always adored the Olypmic Games and it’s been so fun to pass that love onto my children. We let them stay up past bedtime for an extra hour (most nights) to watch a little bit of the coverage.
