Faith of a Child!

Jaxon lost his first tooth today! He was such a trooper! He just asked me to pull it out and he didn't even cry! What happened tonight just before bed tho, really touched my heart! Macady grabbed the envelope that had his tooth inside, shook it, and lost the tooth. We searched high and we searched low, but couldn't find it! Jaxon of course, was very upset, his first tooth was gone, and the Tooth Fairy won't come if there is no tooth! Well, as we were getting ready for family prayer, Jaxon asked Daddy if he would pray that we would find his tooth. Immediately after the prayer was said, Jax and I looked under and between the cushion on the couch and there it was, nestled safely between them!  We hadn't even gotten up off our knees after saying the prayer! What a testimony of the faith of a child, and the power of prayer!  It was just awesome to see his face and knowing that he knew his Father in Heaven helped him find his tooth...his first tooth!  He then said a quick prayer thanking Heavenly Father for helping us, and then wrote it down in his journal...what a sweet moment!

One of my latest


I've had a passion for photography for years now, So Jared and I made a decision to get a really good camera! A Canon SX20IS. I'm really liking the camera a lot, but it's going to take me awhile to learn how to use all the functions! I LOVE doing landscapes, but will be doing more with portraits and family pictures. It feels so good to be behind the camera, I'm SO in my element when I'm scoping out a shot....there are only a few times when I'm happier! When I'm with my family, or at the Temple. This shot was taken near 2nd lift in Declo...

New Job

Ok, wow, so it hasn't been quite a year since my last post....life goes by so fast sometimes! Time to get this up and running again! Sooo I got a job! Yay! It's just part time at the DeMary Library in Rupert, but I LOVE it! I love to read to begin with, I always have, but now......I get to be surrounded by books 3 days a week! Whoo hoo! Not only surrounded by books, but surrounded by QUIET! Oh how I need quiet! :) The one problem I see with it is that now I have about 100 books on my "want to read" list, and every day I'm there I see more that I want to read. Hmmm....is this a good job for me or not??? I think it's great! The library director said that she will probably be looking in to giving me more hours, which would really help out with our finances. One of the best parts about it is that the kids daycare is literally just right around the corner....Just for Kids....one of the best daycares around so I feel comfortable sending them to one, which is hard for me to do.
