Sunflower Six: Winter has Arrived

It might be a week away from Christmas, but we will take all the white stuff we can get!! We usually only get a skiff, but for the kids that is better than nothing. They were able to roll a few snowballs to make a snowman. I could here Braden yelling "snowball fight!" When I looked to see who he was having a snowball fight with I saw him standing in front of the shed throwing snowballs at it. That boy makes me smile!!

Our Frosty the Snowman for the year...

Jon even put lights on a few of the trees and bushes this year. I LOVE snow covered lights.

Just wanted to have this picture as a reminder that it can snow here...it may not last very long,

but it does snow sometimes!!

Innocence of a child....

Driving along the freeway in Lehi there is a new little amusement park called Liberty Land. They have a very large imitation of Mount Rushmore with the heads of the Presidents of the U.S. Sydney's see's it and says,"Hey, there's the Godhead!"

While passing through Farmington, NM, we saw a car graveyard. The cars were all lined up in rows and rows and more rows. Morgan says, "Hey, are those cars stuck in rush hour traffic?"

While reading how the Nephites and Laminites are always fighting, Sydney says, "How do you fought?"

Thought provoking thoughts...

A.S.A.P

Always Say A Prayer.

Don't count the days,

Make the days count.

Life is not measured by the breathes we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Prayer changes things.

“Don't spend your life with someone you can live with, spend it with someone you can't live without"

"If I had my child to raise all over again, I'd build self esteem first, and the house later. I'd finger paint more, and point the finger less. I would do less correcting and more connecting. I'd take my eyes off the watch, and watch with my eyes. I'd take more hikes, and fly more kites. I would stop playing serious, and seriously play. I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars. I'd do more hugging and less tugging."
