Beautiful picture of the Salt Lake Temple



You've may have seen this picture before, apparently it's been forwarded a lot. My sister, Mary, sent it to me and I hadn't seen it before. Here's what she wrote:

"Well I think this is just about the most beautiful picture ever!
The story is that someone took it from the Hilton Hotel during the fog and inversion a few weeks ago.
It has probably made the rounds a few times since I got it from two different people.
"
Enjoy!

Pictures of our trip to San Francisco coming up!

Pay it Forward...

The first FIVE people to respond to this post will get something from me! My choice. For you.

This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I do, but I'll try!
2- It'll be done this year. (might be a little while)
3- You have no clue what it's going to be.It may be a story. It may be poetry, shoes, bags, or a little invention of my own! I may draw or paint something. I may bake you something. I may mail it to you. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure!
4- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange. Believe me... it may blow your mind!

The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win from me when you get it!
Sounds like fun, right?


So, let's play!

My Dough Girl




One of my co-workers brought cookies to work yesterday...they were purchased from My Dough Girl which is located in Salt Lake at 770 S. 300 E. They are INCREDIBLE COOKIES....you can find her website here. She names her cookies after women; my favorite is Vivianna. Vivianna's description is: Feel the warmth of the equator. Orange dough, mangos & dark chocolate...YUM!!! My second favorite is Audrey: Almond dough packed full of adoration, almonds, cranberries and white chocolate. I'm not a white chocolate fan, but these are delicious! I can't wait to go in and try the red velvet and Ricki. Ricki's description is as follows: One might find themselves saying "Ooh Aah All Man's Joy!" Coconut dough with chocolate chips, coconut, and almonds. You can either purchase the frozen cookie dough balls, take them home and bake one or a dozen...or you can buy them already baked. Oh, my, if you're in SLC, stop in and try them, you won't be disappointed.

It's about time!


When Jack wanted Tim to take him outside he'd go get Tim's shoes and take them to him.



My son-in-law ran a half marathon while we were there... beat his previous record by 4 minutes! Way to go Tommy! Jack is playing with Tommy's medal in this picture.

Camille and Mike

I know, I know...it's been over a month since I posted. I should have done something after Christmas...

Tim and I went to Phoenix to visit Ang, Tommy and Jack. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed our time there very much. Jack is growing up and changing and LOVES his Grandpa Huffaker. He loves me too, but there is a special bond between the guys. Side note: we were iChatting with Jack and Ang the other night and were about to sign off, Ang told Jack to kiss Grandma, so he leaned up to the monitor and kissed me...he did the same to Tim..talk about melting our hearts especially since he doesn't give many kisses and hugs.

We met my cousin, Kathy, who is from Nova Scotia, Canada, but living in AZ, at the Mesa Temple. She brought some of her kids and two of her brother's kids (who were visiting from Nova Scotia)...along with a few if their spouses. Richard's (Kathy's brother) beautiful granddaughter was there as well. It was wonderful to see everyone!


A nice bonus: we had dinner with a good friend, Camille, and her husband, Mike. They were married in September and I had a ticket to come to AZ for the wedding but instead...I had to have the surgery for my colon cancer. They are so cute and happy; thanks guys for meeting us for dinner!

Go to Angela's blog...

I couldn't figure out why Tim was taking 1/2 of the day off today and he encouraged me to try and do the same. It worked out well, we had a major snow storm today and were sent home at 2. Go to Angela's blog and see what happened when I walked in the door...
