Blogland Hiatus

I took a much needed break from my computer for the past few weeks to enjoy some quality time with my amazing children and experience exhilarating Houston weather. Warm sunny days and chilly evenings are so much fun! What tender feelings I have for each of my children - I love to spend time with them and enjoy their unique personalities. Here are some shots from a walk around the lake in our neighborhood:

Christmas away from home

We just returned from an adventurous two week trip visiting family in Utah and Idaho for Christmas. What a blessing for our children to be able to see the beautiful sights of the areas we visited! They were such troopers and handled the trip so well. Despite disrupted routines, living out of suitcases, and sleeping in varied homes, we so enjoyed spending time with family and the many playdates with cousins.

The lights at Temple Square were breathtaking...
