Service. We all know we should do it. But sometimes it can be hard thinking of what to do, especially when you have young children. What if you had a way to help your family plan service projects you can do together and also individually? Neisha, from Hang a Ribbon on the Moon, created this […]
#LightTheWorld by Serving Others
In this season where our hearts are filled with gratitude to God it naturally follows that we have an increased desire to serve Him and His children. One of the names Jesus Christ called himself was “Light of the World.” “Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he […]
The Christmas Project – Movie Review and Giveaway!
Think of some of your favorite Christmas traditions. Ours usually involve some type of service. But also a lot of Christmas movie watching, especially on the Hallmark Channel. Tell me we aren’t the only ones who do that! Last night my family and I watched a really great Christmas movie called The Christmas Project. We laughed […]
Use Facebook and Chatbooks to Create a Simple Ancestor Photo Book
Last week I posted how easy Chatbooks are to create. I received a few emails and messages asking about the ancestor photos books. Here’s a quick tutorial on how I created mine. I started by finding ancestor photos. We had quite a few already. I also looked online at Family Search and was able to […]
Have You Heard of Chatbooks?
My first five girls have scrapbooks with all their pictures arranged on cute little pages. The next three kids have all their pictures stuffed into photo page protectors. The last three have nothing or almost nothing. But I’m working on it! When Henry was born I heard about an app called Chatbooks. It links to […]
Christmas Gifts From Amazon
Amazon is one of my favorite online stores. I mostly use it for the Subscribe and Save program where I purchase regular items on a monthly basis. Things like tissue, Clorox disinfectant wipes, diapers and wipes, lotion, shampoo and conditioner, etc. If you are a Prime Member you just can’t beat their free shipping or […]

Uncommon Gifts
It’s that time of year! I went shopping in Reno last week and already, before October even started, the stores were setting out their Christmas displays. I have mixed feeling about it because 1) I hate how commercialized Christmas is and 2) I start seriously shopping, creating, crafting for Christmas gifts in September so everything is […]
Feliz Navidad!
Wishing you the most merriest of Christmases from all of us here on the farm! Here’s a copy of our ridiculous newsletter summing up 2015. Our story begins this time last December. We found we’d be gaining a new family member. A son-in-law it was going to be, Patrick became engaged to Eve! February brought […]
Christmas Roundup
We received a fun Christmas package last week from Covenant Books with books, dvds, and even a tiny but beautiful statue of Christ. Each item has focused our attention even more on the true meaning of Christmas. First is the three inch marble Christus statue. It is the perfect size for little hands to hold […]
Christmas Almost Lost
The following is an excerpt that was printed in the December 2015 LDS Living Magazine about a special Christmas that occurred to Juliana Perkins Luke when she lived in Panaca, NV. I am posting it here because of the family legacy of kindness and thoughtfulness that is shown. It is a great addition to my […]

A Savior is Born Advent Day 9: Away in a Manger
We often sing “Away in a manger no crib for his bed…” during this season but have you ever stopped to think that for the Wise Men it really was ‘away?’ The Wise Men had to travel far to find #ASaviorisBorn. The wise men in today’s activity will do the same but your family will […]
