What do you do to pass the time when you're stopped at a traffic light?

I was driving home from an errand with Cowgirl yesterday evening, and while stopped at a stop light, we were able to enjoy this view.

I love living in the shadows of the Wasatch Mountains. There is seriously not a day that goes by without me pausing for just a moment to soak in their beauty. I could never live anywhere else!

After snapping a shot of the moon, I wanted to get a picture of the mountain...but a giant roof Santa and some traffic lights snuck into the shot! They're like those obnoxious people that try to jump into your pictures and think it's funny!

Hope everyone is enjoying their week so far!

Wow, just gorgeous! I have recently mentioned to my hubby that I would love to move to Utah ;) He drove through on his way to Wyoming to hunt in October, and said it was the prettiest state! :)

The mountains out there are so different from ours, they look so cool!
The moon IS HUGE the last couple nights. It's still out in the morning and the boys love it.

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown). Start by cutting your napkin down to a manageable size, slightly bigger than your tile. Next spread a layer of mod podg onto the t...

Holiness to the Lord

My heart is full tonight. Today I had the opportunity, along with my husband, to take our two oldest children and attend a session of the dedication of the newest LDS temple. A few weeks ago we were able to take the entire family to tour the inside of the temple during the public open house. During this time, before the temple is dedicated to the Lord, the temple is open to the public for anyone to come walk through and tour the inside. My kids were so excited - they have always asked me what it was like inside the temple. I've tried to explain it to them. There is nothing in this world that can compare to the beauty, the serenity, the absolute peace that can be found within the walls of these holy buildings. Today as we attended the dedication, I was overcome with emotion as I sat with my husband, and two of my children, sharing with them this special experience. I am so grateful to have had this opportunity. As I was waiting for the meeting to start, listening to the beautiful m...
