Some goodies!

This is an excellent LDS fiction book about the premortal life and war in heaven! It is a series of....I think 6...anyways I'm on the 2nd one now and I'm a huge fan! It makes you think alot about our premortal life and the covenants we made! Actually it makes you think about alot of stuff!! Its really good! Eww and the way he describes Satan.... oh it so good...just read it!

'In the time before Creation, before so many of the children of God turned away from their Father and walked knowingly into the dark, there was a choosing, a sifting, a contest of ideas and a battle for souls. In that great premortal war, each of us learned the first lessons of life: The great ones may fall. The wicked can change. The weak and the foolish can become the strongest of all. And the battle between good and evil is the same regardless of the time or place'

I'm not done with the second one yet....but in this one the characters are now on earth and the battle with evil continues...

'The war that began before we entered mortality is escalating into the final battle for freedom, liberty and the hearts and souls of all men. Into this world filled with turmoil, our Father will send some of his most valiant servants. A child is born who may have the power to change the course of history. But will Elizabeth remember the covenants she made in the pre-mortal world? Will she and her brothers have the strength to withstand the terrible forces of evil that will reign in the Last Days? Against the backdrop of Middle Eastern conflict, this story of war and intrigue will have you riveted.'

I'm looking forward to the rest the series!

Excellent Read....and if your a dog lover...a must!

This book was really good....it is written through the eyes of a dog and it is so fun! At times I found myself wondering... do dogs really think like this?.....and some times I think they do! The dogs owner is a race car driver so he talks about raceing and racers which was interesting since I'm clueless to the subject...so if that suits you fancy you'll like it even more! Garth Stein is amazing and getting into a dogs head...it is so creative! So if you want a good read (and you don't mind a few curse words and sexual content.... but remember its coming from a dog) Then here is a book for you!

here's a short summary:

'An imaginative and emotional tale of life and love from a creative and unorthodox point of view, The Art of Racing in the Rain tells the story of the Swift family, as seen by their faithful dog, Enzo. On the eve of his death, Enzo recalls all that the family has been through: the sacrifices his master, Denny Swift, an up-and-coming race car driver, has made to succeed; the unexpected loss of Eve, Denny’s wife; the three-year custody battle over their daughter, Zoe, whose maternal grandparents pulled every string to gain guardianship. The Art of Racing in the Rain is the third novel from Stein, a former documentary filmmaker who lives in Seattle'

Festival of Trees

Jodies pride and joy

the dedication

So my mother-in-law Jodie dedicated a tree to her son Michael at the Festival of Trees. My mother-in-law was the mastermind of it all....and let me help her! Might I say it turned out FABULOUS! Her theme she was shooting for was bird related...hence the tree being called "The wind beneath my wings" So we did lots of little bird houses all over it, little squirrels with birds, berries, pine cones, lots of sparklies, etc. Jodie let me do the honers of creating the topper for the tree....so I did a bird nest with of course a birdie and her eggs with sticks and sparklies and feathers.....might I say IT turned out FABULOUS! muhahaha just jokes! Next to the tree is a beautiful big birdhouse....Soooooooooo if you are going to the festival look for it in Aisle K!

ps. For all you Twilighters out there.....there is a 'Cullen Christmas' Tree....it is AWESOME! so keep your eyes peeled

pps. across from our tree at the end of the aisle is an amazing tree made of glass....its a show stopper!
