Things I Like Saturday

Traditions!

Every year since 2002, I have traced and stitched my kids handprints. The first year I made them into a wall hanging. Then I decided to make some pillows (not all are shown in the picture--and I'm a bit behind (gotta get caught up on this one for sure!) Someday I think I'll make all the handprints into a quilt. I love looking at these handprints, it's a fun way to see how the kids are growing! I also have them write their name in the handprints so we can see how their writing changes through the years.

Christmas is a time for lots of different traditions, and today, my Thing I Like is traditions. What kind of traditions do you have for this holiday season?

Things I Like Saturday

Slave Labor!

Today the kids and I cleaned our little hearts out. I bribed them with money and they really earned it! I love when I hear,"what else can I do?" and I can't think of anything. That is my favorite thing on this Saturday.

Things I Like Saturday.

I have decided to to a weekly post called "things I Like Saturday" . I will be posting pictures and descriptions of random things I like. Today I am posting about a pretty cool thing I like. It is the Salt Lake Temple.

I got to go there today. I consider myself to lucky to be minutes away from such a wonderful sacred place. Going to the Temple today was something I really needed and I'm so grateful I can do so whenever I want to. Such a beautiful, reverent, special feeling I have when I am there. I'm especially thankful that Tristan got to be there with me. I am loving my new calling.
