I did NOT want to take family photos this year. Don’t get me wrong- I wanted family photos of our family this year… I just didn’t want to have them taken. And it’s not that I didn’t want to be in them… I just didn’t want to look the way that I do in them […]

What a special time in life! I know for me, I dreamed of serving a mission from the time I was a little girl. My aunt had gone to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ in Korea and I was always fascinated to hear all her stories of teaching people about Jesus Christ for the […]

I love this family so much. They are part of our church family and have always made us feel welcome and loved from the very first weeks we moved here!
