We LOVE the storms!

Anytime there is lightning you will probably find us cuddled up on the front or back porch of our house watching the show:) We have had some good lightning shows lately and the kids have had fun watching them...and of course counting 1 mississippi...2 mississippi...etc. to see how close it was.

The kids on the porch...

Derek...in his sisters shirt:)

Quotes to live by...

“Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he has been robbed. The fact is that most putts don’t drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to be just like people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, and most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is just like an old time rail journey … delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.”--President Gordon B. Hinkley
-----------------------------
“It isn’t as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don’t worry. I say that to myself every morning. It will all work out. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us. If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers.”--Gordon B. Hinkley

"A friend will be there for you when things are good...but a TRUE friend will be there for you when things are good and also when things are very bad...and just when it feels like you will never smile again...she can put a smile on your face with just a hug!"--Katherine
