Why this blog...

I am the mother of the three most talented, intelligent and beautiful children ever to live on this earth. I am also privileged to be married to the most wonderful man! He has added three additional talented, intelligent and beautiful children to our family! I have a job that I mostly love, a wonderful education, a beautiful home, marvelous family, and I have the privilege of belonging to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I have been greatly blessed in my life, but I sometimes forget that. So, I decided to create this blog as a way to remind myself of all the many blessings and miracles that surround me. (I'm also terrible at keeping a journal- so this will be something for my kids to enjoy as well.)

I hope you enjoy what you read. I would love to hear what you think!

Blessings of my Latest Hobby

 This year, I started canning again in a big way!


I was able to upgrade the shelving in the storage room - and then I got busy. It is so much fun to be able to go downstairs to 'shop' for what I might want for dinner. And I very much enjoy learning to can up new things like no sugar added jams, spicy salsa verde, pizza sauce, and what I have dubbed 'chili' juice (basically tomato juice with chili spices - used as a base for chili. I just add onion, peppers and beans)!

I am so blessed to be able to have canning as a hobby!
