"In all of living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured." President Gordon B. Hinckley

"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will--to your surprise--miss them profoundly." President Thomas S. Monson

Dereck Ventures Out

Dereck in Budapest, Hungary.
To complete Dereck's MBA at the University of Utah he "had" to go on a 2-week trip to Europe with his class of 65. I was a little nervous to have my best friend and helper so far away for so long at the sickest point of my pregnancy. Dereck gave me a priesthood blessing before he left and everything changed. I felt watched over and protected while he was gone. So many wonderful friends, family, and neighbors came to my aid that I never felt alone. Morning sickness eased up and the weeks went by pretty quickly. We were all happy to get Dereck back home and to be DONE with his master program!!!
