Announcing Instagram Great Gram Day!
On Father’s Day as we sat around the table eating lunch Bon Bon, my oldest, asked her dad, “How did the Wadsworth’s get to be in Panaca [NV] anyway?” He was surprised by her question as we have talked about their ancestors a lot but he soon realized he had never related that story before. […]
The Best Kind of Story
While watching 17 Miracles for the umpteenth time my six year old informed me, “When I get married, I’m going to tell my wife to only buy true story movies. Those are the best kind to watch.” “Really? Even if people die and its sad?” “Mom, most of the people lived. That was a miracle! […]
Teach Your Children Well
The next guest post in our Establish A House series comes from my good friend Deirdre. I marvel at how the internet connected a Mormon and a Catholic living on different sides of the U.S.A! Deirdre always uses song lyrics to name her posts. The song from Peter, Paul and Mary is the perfect title […]
If You Could Attend the World Congress of Families
would you go? Would you take the chance you had been given to listen to over 100 leaders from around the world advocating for stronger families? During our last Family Proclamation Celebration I wrote a post about defending the family and outlined three areas we can take a stand: in our homes, in our schools, […]
Equally Yoked
I had these guest posts loosely scheduled on my calendar several weeks ago. It’s amazing to me how things work out sometimes. Last week’s Establish a House post generated a very good question from a reader about what to do when spouses aren’t quite in agreement or on board with certain teaching aspects. There were […]

Our next guest writer for this month is Becky. She was born and raised in California. She met her husband at BYU during her sophomore year and they were married that summer. Becky did graduate with a degree in Music History but has been very blessed to be able to stay at home to raise […]

Now to review what we heard, study the words of prophets and apostles, and make them a part of our daily lives. If you remember last conference I created a […]
Come Listen to a Prophet’s Voice: Sunday Afternoon Session
I snuggled little Junior Mint during this whole session so don’t have any notes but I do have several observations. I’m linking to their talks on Youtube. Elder Jeffrey R. Holland can tell a story like no other. He has the ability to make scripture stories come alive. And, wow, is he a powerful speaker!I […]
Come Listen to a Prophet’s Voice: Sunday Morning Session
President Dieter F. Uchtdorf spoke of God’s light. There are three ways to open our eyes to the hope of God’s light. 1) Start right where we are 2) turn your heart toward the Lord 3) walk in the light. Faith comes when we walk away from the darkness and toward the light of hope. […]
Come Listen to a Prophet’s Voice: Saturday Afternoon Session
I realized if I typed up all my notes for General Conference in one post it would be HUGE. Here’s my notes from Saturday Afternoon. The Young Women General presidency was released. They were such great leaders for the Young Women of the church! I knew they would be released. I had that feeling watching […]
Come, Listen to a Prophet’s Voice
It’s that time of year again! Twice a year members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints gather to hear our church leaders speak words of counsel and wisdom. With four general sessions covering Saturday and Sunday we will be fed spiritually by prophets, apostles, and others in what we call General Conference. […]
Teaching Morality to Children
This month the focus for Establish a House will be teaching children morality in an increasingly immoral world.

I am excited to introduce the guest writers that have volunteered their wisdom and experiences to share with […]
