Summer Projects

By
Well, this summer has been great and filled with lots and lots of things for me to do. My main project this summer was to go through all my crap that is still at my parents house and get rid of / condense it all. What a feat that has been! It has pretty much taken all summer! Ha Ha, well not really, but it sure feels like it. In all of my piles of stuff I had MANY unfinished project so that is what my summer has really been full of. Here are a few pictures of those accomplishments, I feel pretty good about myself. And I am happy that I have been able to get some things done and get ride of a lot of the stuff I really don't need, but I'm sure I'm not nearly as happy as my mom is! : ) Thanks mom for your Patients and Unconditional Love and for letting me store some things in your home still. I promise, someday I will get it all out. You're the Best!!




This is an advent calender I bought 3 years ago. After working on it off and on it is finally done! Mini ornaments and all. This is my favorite!

An old Girls Camp Craft that I thought was cute, finally finished!



Another advent, but this was just restoring the one my mom made for us as kids. She was going to toss it and I couldn't do that, so I fixed it!



T-shirt Quilt#2, I was involved in way too many things, but just cant part with the memories. Plus they are so COMFY!

You and your projects! Love it! And I had to explain to Ry was a t-shirt quilt was. He just kept saying, "why doesn't she want to wear the t-shirts? that's what I would do" and I tried to tell him that the quilt will help preserve the memories instead of wearing them out!! :) Congrats on getting all that done!

Wow! That cross stitch advent calendar is impressive! All your other projects are cute too. :-) Good job on going through stuff! I know it has taken me a few years to go through all my stuff I had at my parents house. It was down to two boxes, which I now have. It can be done!

The Light of the World

By
I was asked to give a talk yesterday in church.  Kinda daunting knowing it was Christmas Sunday, but I think it went pretty well.  I like remembering my talk so I'm throwing it up here mainly for my own record.  But maybe it will bless the lives of others too.  I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and that the Light of Christ will be upon you and radiate from you now and forever. Jesus Christ: The Light of the World Rebecca’s talk given on 12/20/2015 Jesus Christ.  Can a topic be any broader? I have spent a lot of time over the last 6 weeks trying to decide what direction I wanted to go and I kept going back to the same thought, Jesus is the light of the world.  This is not an insignificant statement, but very profound and very important.  Let’s start from the beginning. Many Prophets have testified of the fact that Jesus Christ is the light of the world long before the Savior was even born.  The very first sign of his bir...

Because God Love's Us

  How is Christ’s Birth Significant to me Talk on 12/20/2020 Good Morning Brothers and Sisters & Merry Christmas!   Heavenly Father must know my preferred method for giving a talk is procrastinating because I have been called to fill in last minute on many occasions.   However, this is the first time it’s happened on Christmas Sunday.   But I am happy to be here with you and I’m so grateful for technology that allows us to meet and worship together, especially during this Christmas season.   I’m not gonna lie, this is weird speaking on zoom.   I much prefer being together and making eye contact with you and seeing your encouraging smiles.   So please bear with any awkwardness I may have.   When initially asked to speak, Brother Smith gave me the topic of “How Christ’s birth is significant to me.”   My initial response was, could that topic be any broader?   But then gratefully he followed it up with “Particularly from the prosp...

Kid's Talks

By
  Riley’s Primary Talk on Baptism 3/15/20 Today I want to talk on Baptism.   Being baptized is a commandment from Heavenly Father.   We have to be baptized to make it back to Him.   Even Jesus Christ was baptized.   If Jesus Christ was baptized we should be baptized too.   When we turn 8 years old we can choose to follow Jesus Christ’s example and be baptized too.   When we are baptized and confirmed we become members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.     If you have already been baptized, you should remember the covenants, or promises you made.   If you have not been baptized, you should study and pray and keep the commandments so that when you turn 8 years old you will be ready. We should all remember how important baptism is.   I am really excited I get to be baptized next year.   In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen Faith Parker’s Talk   2/16/20   Today, my talk is going to be about f...
