Many of you who come here know that I am LDS (aka mormon), if you don't now you do. Anyway, as part of Relief Society (the women's organization in the church), we had a stake enrichment night on Thursday. Our guest speaker was Mark Mabry. He is an amazing photographer who created Reflections of Christ. It is a series of photographs depicting Christ's life. It is beautiful and so inspiring. The exhibit is on tour across the nation right now. These photos are just fantastic. My favorite happens to be of the scene of Mary, Joseph and the Christ child. The lighting is phenomenal! Whether you are LDS, Christian or of other beliefs, this is something you should not miss. Go see it if it is in your area, if not, see it on the Reflections of Christ website(click on Reflections of Christ to be taken to that website). I was truly touched and hope you are as well.

She did it!!
Okay so Sarah went outside to play today and she comes running in and says, "Mom!! I can ride my bike with no training wheels! Come see, come on!" So I ran out and watched my big little girl ride her bike with no training wheels, then I ran in to get the camera. Awww. She's growing up and I feel so privileged to be able to document it.
Happy Valentine's Day to you all!

Friends...
Are the best! You know the kind you meet and there is just that instant connection. You could talk to them for hours on everything and anything under the sun and never get bored. I love those kind of friends. My cousin Mikaela is one of those friends to me. Okay but to be honest I think the first time I met her was at our Grandma Stoker's funeral. We were like 6 or 8 or something and she didn't come across as the instant friend type. Then I moved closer to her in 5th grade and we have been close ever since. We just mention NKOTB and we bust out laughing.
I met some other people recently that are like this for me. Just super fun and you know you will be still laughing after you leave them and the conversation. Super fun!
Just thought I would share that short little blurb of my life. Here is a card that I made for the Card A Licious blog this week. Enjoy!
