The ♥ heart of the family...

You know growing up in the church I always heard that the Mother was the heart of the home!
With that in mind, I have had a rough couple of years....at some point a while back I gave up and I felt like what is the use... I was going to church and doing what I was suppose to but I stopped praying because it seemed no one was listening. Oh we had family prayer and scripture study but it was more out of habit than anything else.
So we a sort of had a melt down not to long ago... mid life crisis...insanity... I don't know what you call it but it was MY wake up call!
As a Mother I need to do what is right for my family not just selfishly for myself but in making sure I pray and read my scriptures. I am protecting my family from those who try so hard to destroy it.
So I am trying again... reading my scriptures, and saying my personal as well as family prayer... Not only has it soften my attitude and strengthened my hope but it has brought us closer together as a family!
After this experience I now truly understand that statement!♥

We did get to go CAMPING

So my husband reconnected with a friend from High School and he lives in KS and Doug and he have been texting like "teenagers" for months since the re-connect... When we found out they were planning a trip to go Camping here in CO we decided it was worth it to meet he and his family there... so we packed up the RV and drove to Pearl Lake and met up with his buddy! It was a beautiful place! Here are some pictures!

It was a very sceneic drive!
