Sweet Little Kimberly

These picture were taken by my older brother Roy. He has a cool backdrop that he uses and an awesome camera that takes pictures really fast. Kimberly had a great time posing. It was hard to get her to just smile and sit still. She will be three in April. Time is flying by. She is the last and it is a little sad. It has to end somewhere.Right? She brings such joy to our family. The other girls adore her and she learns way too much from them. Don't you just love her red hair.


She does know how to say CHEEEESE!

Little Blessings Everywhere!

I just wanted to post a thank you to everyone who has kept us in their prayers, brought in wonderful meals, given words of encouragement or just a kind word or smile. Those little blessings have helped me through these hard times. I can feel Heavenly Father's love and I see His love taking place from the service given on our behalf. Once again, we are so blessed to have the gospel in our lives and know without a doubt that it is true. Trials definitely strengthen ones faith and testimony that God lives and also that His son died for us. I am so grateful for family that is close by. What a blessing to us all.

Faith

It has been quite a while since I posted anything. It seems that our family has been affected by the slump in the housing market. Gregg was laid off by the company he was working for. The company was only able to sell one house last year. So had to be let go. I never thought that our family would be affected by an unemployment. Our faith that things will be O.K. has been our saving grace. Hopefully Gregg will find jobs and move forward with beginning his own business. He does have his contractors license. He is great at home improvements as well. If I have to return to work I will. Either way we will endure this trial. We both have wonderful supporting families who love us and will help. As for the house, Gregg will continue to finish it. If we have to end up selling it then we will. Whatever the Lord's will, we will be willing to do. I love my Heavenly Father as well as my Savior and I know they will not let us down when we are doing our part. I also have to remember to pray for the other millions that have lost their jobs. This is a hard time right now in our country. I am hopeful that when one door closes another opens.
