Scary Spider

The other night as I pulled out my printer to print a free Quizno's sub coupon out a spider came hurrying out behind it. Sick!! So I caught it with a cup and left it suffer in there over night. When I woke up it was dead... probably from suffocation.... just a guess. Here's a picture so you can get an idea of what I had to deal with.

First one is the night I killed it (alive)
Second one is the next morning shriveled up. I have no remorse for what I did. It shouldn't have been in the house to begin with... let alone my room!

Bright Beauties!

Yesterday I had to go down to the Temple to pick up a name a girl in my ward did last week. She didn't know you had to pick it up after your done. Anyways, I took more pictures of the flowers and Temple. Enjoy the beautiful colors!



Maybe they're so beautiful because they're Temple flowers.... they're celestial!

It's a Girl!

No, not me, but Hector. Yes, that's right Hector is a she. I need a new name for HER. Any ideas? I thought the name Gia was cute, but it doesn't seem to fit HER.

On top of finding out he's a she, well SHE is also pregnant. The little hussy! I don't know what to do. I wish I could take her in somewhere to have her babies and then bring her back, but it's not that easy. But I'd like to see her kittens and play with them, but what do I do when they get bigger and start playing around. And too, I can't keep them, so what then. Oh my, I've gotten myself into a big pickle! Well, I didn't, whatever her name did!

FREE Ihop and Jack in the Box!

Free pancakes all day, the 24th, at Ihop! They team up with Children's Miracle Network so if you'd like to donate to them you can. Last year when I went I don't think I even waited to be seated. It wasn't that busy.

Two free tacos at Jack in the Box today too. It really is just $1.07 for two tacos regularly priced but I guess free is free right. (can you tell I've been more than once)

Coupon

ENJOY!

Temple Flowers

Leaving the Temple Saturday I had wished I'd brought my camera with me because the flowers were so beautiful with the Arizona sunshine and cool breeze blowing in the air. So today when I went I made sure I had my camera in hand. I didn't go there just to take pictures, but that was on the agenda. So after my session I went outside and starting snapping... not my fingers, but my camera! The weather was absolutely perfect. Just like it had been Saturday. Here are just a few I took.

I couldn't decide on one or two pictures. That's just not me. :)

Very Special Valentine's Day


I don't know if many know this, but I just started volunteering at the Temple...
Today was my first time working at the Temple for a few hours with the children. I stay with the children until it's time for them to be sealed to their parents. Then I stay with them while their sealed and bring them back to the room. Today was so special and beautiful! The children were all girls ages 13, 10, 8, and 6. They were so polite and nice to each other. As I was watching them get sealed for time and ALL eternity as a family I thought about how glorious and wonderful Heavenly Father must have felt for them at that moment. The spirit was so strong in the room and I could feel Heavenly Father's love for each of his beloved children. It made my testimony of eternal families grow even stronger as I watched this cute family be sealed together in the Lord's house for eternity. To think now they are an eternal family is simply amazing and incredible. I'm so thankful for my eternal family who I will be with forever. I love this gospel so much! I'm grateful to know it's truthfulness and the happiness it brings to me daily. What a blessing it truly is to have the restored gospel of Jesus Christ on the earth today. I will always be indebted to my Savior for everything He has given me and I hope and pray that when I get to meet him He says "well done thou good and faithful servant."

Valentines Day!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!! I love my family and friends so much! I'm so grateful for the love and support they give me. Heavenly Father has truly blessed my life immensely in many ways.
