Blog Posting Recall

Please refer to my previous post upon viewing this video: Girl Time.

Brent, as always, is my biggest fan, but also my biggest critic. Thus, in light of recent constructive criticism I've received, I must apologize to all those who read that post (indicated above) because there was no visual aid provided. I posted it on Facebook, but that wasn't sufficient and no one reads blogs just to read them...they want pictures. In an effort to redeem myself, I've attached a video rather than a simple picture. I will do my best, in the future, to not make this mistake again. Enjoy.

P.S. Feel free to leave any additional remarks, requests etc in the comment section. I will check with my editor first prior to implementing any changes. ;-)

Mothers and Daughters

Just a warning, I am standing on my 'soapbox', so turn back now if you don't want to hear my rant of the day. I have strong opinions, so read at your own risk. :) I just watched this video, Mothers and Daughters , and had to share it. I watched a very disturbing episode of Oprah yesterday (the DVR recorded another episode for some reason). I won't go in to details, but despite all of the discussion I was very upset and surprised by the actions of the mother. She was basically the opposite of what a mother should reflect. She offered no love, support, encouragement and in this particular situation protection for any of her children. I particularly like how Elder Ballard mentions what expectations we as women are presented with today. Pointing out how, women are often made to look silly, and objectified. Our roles, that we are divinely given, are continually undermined . Women seek guidance on how we should look, what we should wear etc. from people that really do

What's Fabric?

David's Bridal Highly Educated & Well Informed Employee: Thank you for calling DB. How can I help you? Me: Hi, yes I'm trying to order several yards of fabric. DBHE&WIE: I'm sorry, what? I don't understand you? Me: I'm trying to order some fabric. DBHE&WIF: order what? Me: Fabric. F-A-B-R-I-C (yes, I spelled it out for her just mistakenly thinking this would in some way make the communicating proces easier). DBHE&WIE: I don't know what that is. Me: (stunned, but I'm used to working with stupid people on the phone...here's my attempt to 'dumb it down') the stuff the clothes are made of--cotton, taffeta..? DBHE&WIE: Oh! Oh, I don't know...let me transfer you to alterations. Long story short: alterations first language was NOT English. She transferred me back... Hung up--called another location. They're going to call me back tomorrow to let me know. ps Tanlee-you owe me.

Be Thankful

It's that time of year again! Time to spend hours cooking/preparing, minutes eating (WAY too much food), all surrounded in the loud, wonderful chaos of family. The food, shopping and preparations can quickly and easily take over and result in overlooking the real meaning of the holiday. Thanksgiving invites us all to reflect on our many blessings and remember to be grateful. As you might expect, the things I am most grateful for are those that you can't buy. This year we welcomed Brynlynn into our home and are SO GRATEFUL for her; that she is here, that she is healthy, that our family is forever. I'm incredibly grateful for my knowledge of the gospel of Jesus Christ. I'm grateful for the countless blessing He has bestowed upon me and my family. I am grateful for Brent; for the man and husband that he is and more importantly the father that he is. I'm so grateful for all of my immediate and extended family...I'm not under any false impression that it'
