"A house does not have to be perfect to be a home of joy, a child does not have to behave perfectly to love and be loved, and every moment of life does not have to be perfect to be of value. Too often, I realize, we fail to see the glorious reality of the simple joy that abounds in the seemingly mundane routine of day-to-day living. Instead, we tend to idolize the past, idealize the future, and devalue the present.... What better way to show our appreciation to Heavenly Father for what we have than to embrace our lives, albeit 'ordinary' and 'unexciting,' with joy?"

Be My Valentine



Happy (belated) Valentine's Day!


We had a great one and hope you did too!

ps- I love cute, simple Valentine-y decorations! The "kiss me" and "Be my Valentine" ones were new this year... and my new love is using scrabble tiles for cute seasonal messages!

I love your decorations! We are excited to move back to Seattle. Everyone always asks if we have any family there. I'm so happy when I can tell them that I have cousins there. We will have to plan to get together. I'm excited to have our kids play! What city are you guys in now?
