"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. No matter our talents, education, backgrounds or abilities, we each have an inherent wish to create something that did not exist before. Everyone can create. You don’t need money, position, or influence in order to create something of substance or beauty. You might say, I am not the creative type. If that is how you feel, think again. Creation is your opportunity in this life….. Start small. Creativity does not require a brush, a pen, or the keys of a piano. Don’t let the voice of critics paralyze you. You will make the World a better place. Improve, beautify, extend, smile, cultivate, develop, create."
~President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Randomness and Gratitude Appreciation Month: Day 8

Here are some pictures I've taken over the last few days.

Raking the leaves and mowing the lawn and great-grandma Anderson's


 Then Corey took the kids to the playground across the street while we finished.


 Nora sporting Mom's sunglasses at Gramma J's house.
 I got Nathan out of the tub and took him to other room to get his clothes on for church. I came back to find that Nora thought her jammies needed a bath too.
My handsome devil sporting his brand new tie and new white shirt (both of which were previously much to small).
 This is what you call a 'good eating dinner night'. Just check out how much Nora's belly sticks out. Yeah, she's having a food baby.




 I found her reading herself a story on her rocking chair.
 The kids set the table for dinner last night all by themselves. Forks are the only thing Nora can reach and she thought we needed a whole bunch. I just thought this was funny!


And now, what am I thankful for today? Well, the temple of course! Corey and I are going to the temple tonight and I am really excited!
