Food 4 Thought Friday ~ This week's questions:
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥   
Breakfast ~ What is something you always look forward to?
Christmas.  I love the music and the anticipation, and of course the feeling of Goodness in the World.

Lunch ~ What is your best advice to a newly married couple?
Stay friends, have fun together, but don’t smother each other.  You are two people who are joined together in life, but you are still two people who have different attitudes, likes, traditions, and feelings.  Accept them and know that you don’t have to be the same to be together.

Dinner ~ What is stressing you out most right now? 
A little bit of many things, stress about staying ahead of my students, worrying about family members who are seriously ill or struggling, worrying about my grandson who has tendencies of both Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and the constant worrying about my girls.
And – that is the number one reason that I am “okay” about BJ.  He is the one thing in life that I don’t worry about because I know he is in a wonderful place with people who love and cherish him.  It will be a joyous reunion when I see him again, but right now I enjoy the fact that I don’t have to worry about him.

Midnight Snack ~ Name something that inspired you this week.
I watched a video on the Savior on Facebook.  It reminded me once again how He is always there for us, we just need to ask.  He knows, He understands, and He loves.

Recipe of the Week ~ (instead of your recipe for life what is it just for the week?) 
Look and seek and recognize all of the blessings I have in my life.

Okay I need to visit your blog even if you don't say you played! I am behind on your F4TF!
I wish I looked more forward to Christmas! Ugh
Our kids sure do have a way of stressing us out and I agree with you about having our boys in heaven so we no longer have to worry about them. It truly is a HUGE blessing! Thank you for reminding me of that!
Kim! How can anyone look forward to winter??? I guess I need to find the good in it!!!
Love your recipe of the week!

Memories:  These vintage pictures surfaced this month.  I just love looking at old pictures remembering how things were - especially when the pictures are of loved ones who are no longer with us.  I love seeing Grandpa and Grandma surrounded by family.  They loved being with family!  This made me smile.

We had a marvelous time!  So much so that Kim has decided that he wants to build our own axe-throwing lane in our backyard!  I believe t

Fun Day With Bubba

Image
Today Bubba and I had a great day! First we joined Ash and Tristan for a visit to the park. Bubba and Tristan ran and rolled and climbed and had all kinds of fun! Later, Kim and I had to run to Logan, so we decided that a quick trip to Willow Park was in order. Bubba was so excited to see all of the animals there. We saw turtles, geese, swans, cranes, peacocks, and deer. We watched an owl eating his dinner. We saw a couple of young antelope fighting - I think they were really just playing! We even saw a couple of wallabies! Of course, Bubba's favorite part was feeding the ducks! He got a little nervous if one got too close, but as long as they kept their distance, he had a blast throwing food to them. I'm sure that he just about wore himself out with all of the walking and running and playing. I know that I did!

Mom is Coming Home

Image
We just got word today that mom can come home from Rehab tomorrow morning – a week earlier than we had expected. Needless to say, mom is thrilled at the prospects of being home again, and dad is quite excited also. I have to admit, I have mixed feelings. Honestly, it has been very nice having mom in a place where I knew that they were taking very good care of her. The food there is fantastic, the workers are extremely pleasant and friendly, and her care was wonderful. She has gained an incredible amount of muscle strength through her two-a-day physical therapy sessions, and they are fanatical about making sure that her food and fluids are exactly what she needs. Consequently mom is actually in better overall health now than she has been in the last two years. It has been nice for me to have them watching over her continuously to make sure that she does what she is supposed to and also to make sure that she doesn’t cheat on her diet or fluid restrictions. It has been wonderful to take
