Courage. . .Brings the Smile of God’s Approval

August 18, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 2 Comments

Courage, not compromise, brings the smile of God's approval. Thomas S. Monson

Back in April during General Conference there seemed to be a theme of having faith and courage to live as a disciple of Jesus Christ. Just look at the titles of the first three talks: The Cost—and Blessings—of Discipleship, The Joyful Burden of Discipleship, and Christ the Redeemer. In studying the conference talks again I came upon this […]

Happy Easter!

April 20, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} Leave a Comment

Just a few wonderful links and videos for today to help you celebrate Easter. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir gave a live performance of Handel’s Messiah Friday evening. They were so surprised by the reaction of the public when it was announced they would give this concert (the tickets were gone in 7 1/2 minutes!) that […]

Jesus is the Living Christ

I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I am a Christian, regardless of what some, who do not understand my faith, may say. I believe in Jesus Christ. I know He is my Savior. I have learned this truth from studying the Bible AND The Book of Mormon. The Book of […]

Because of Him

April 12, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 6 Comments

Because of Jesus Christ I know that death is not the end. We will all live again! As Easter Day nears and we celebrate that glorious resurrection, His resurrection, we are given hope. Hope that we can start anew each and every day. Hope that through His grace we can be renewed and made whole. […]

Sun Light Catchers

March 28, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 2 Comments

There’s just something about the coming of spring that makes our hearts feel lighter. The sun shines brighter outside and though we still have stormy, rainy days we are beginning to have delicious warmer days too. Today is a bit colder and windy. To bring in some light and color we made sun light catchers. […]

What is love?

February 14, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 13 Comments

Is it a surprise picture left on a camera? A couple exchanging vows to cherish one another? Is it a mother holding a newborn, breathing in a bit of heaven? Or a father with a baby bundled up in his coat? Is it manifest in the hard labor to provide? Or the sweet scene of […]

Old Saturday Evening Posts

January 29, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 5 Comments

One of my daughters had a birthday on Sunday and I totally scored with one of the gifts. She loves all things 1940s – the clothes, the hairstyles, learning all about WWII. She also loves clocks. So I spent the day searching our town for an old clock for her. Couldn’t find one. At all. […]

My New Wallet

January 22, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 23 Comments

Look what I made! The zipper on my old wallet broke. I needed a new one but couldn’t find one that I liked. And when I did it was $50. There was no way I was going to spend that much on a wallet! I decided to search the internet for a wallet tutorial and […]

Dwell Printables

January 21, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 3 Comments

To remind myself to dwell more in the simple moments of the day, my one goal for the year, I created simple signs that are hanging above my favorite red shelf. This is the one spot that I can consistently decorate for the season that won’t be destroyed or rearranged by little fingers. It is […]

Reclaimed

December 19, 2013 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 2 Comments

Last week while Mr. Ferrero Rocher and I traveled to and from Utah I brought along Pres. Boyd K. Packer’s new book, In Wisdom and Order, to read aloud. It’s a collection of speeches and addresses he’s made in the past half century. Anyway, I’d just open the book to a random chapter and start […]
