Can’t believe it’s been 10 years since Light the Fire Within, Olympic Winter Games, Salt Lake City 2002. I had the best time as a Volunteer in the Olympic and Paralympic Village!
The important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning but taking part. Just as in life, the aim is not to conquer but to struggle well. Pierre De Coubertin, 1937

I’ve been following The Family Trifecta for awhile. Amy gives some great tips and hints for getting the most out of life, great photography, recipes, etc. She also runs a contest every so often. I won a $30 gift card! She’s also given away art too. THANKS Amy for all the time and work you put into your blog!

This year I am going to do a little more studying the gospel, working, spending more time being creative, leaning a few new recipes, and a little more time with my camera.
And more importantly, document it all by blogging more…

"I say that we need to teach our people to find their answers in the scriptures…But the unfortunate thing is that so many of us are not reading the scriptures. We do not know what is in them, and therefore we speculate about things we ought to have found in the scriptures themselves. I think that therein is one of our biggest dangers of today." (President Harold B. Lee)
"No member of this church can stand approved in the presence of God who has not seriously and carefully read the Book of Mormon." (President Ezra Taft Benson)
"I know the Book of Mormon is true. You just have to read it." (President Gordon B. Hinckley)

He’s so cuddly, lovable & sweet, but will be going back to his former owners. He’s made fantastic progress in the potty training department, but Chole keeps picking on him. Sure will miss him! He loves to sun himself in the backyard grass. It’s so cute when he gets so excited to see you, even if you only left the room for a few minutes. It’s hard to get pictures of him though because for some reason he hates the camera. He will seriously run away if you try to take a picture of him.

Go to this post on Sherbet Blossom, scroll to the bottom of that post, click on the coupon and print out!
I just got home with mine (picture above). They ask spouses name, birthdays and anniversary, address, phone and email. I had to wait about 30 minutes, but I was in the “short” line. They let you buy another strand for $19.99 plus tax. Worth it my opinion! They have a separate line for those just wanting the free strand. It was VERY long….
Hope you can take advantage of this offer! It’s while supplies last.
