A new year!

So for a while now i have really been wanting to blog about having a good food storage, i have been putting it off.... I just dont know why it is so hard to just do the things that we know we should do!?!? duhhh?!....... procrastination...... its bad!
so anyways! i am proud of myself because i have really been thinking that i need to just get a few things here and there just to have at least a start to our food storage, and i finally did! i went to the cannery and got a bit of a start on a food storage.
it feels better!
i dont have much, just a few cans of this and that, but i know it is important to at least have something! After all, how long have we been warned?!
I found a quote a while ago that i thought was really good! and true!

Too often we bask in our comfortable complacency and rationalize that the ravages of war, economic disaster, famine, and earthquake cannot happen here. Those who believe this are either not acquainted with the revelations of the Lord, or they do not believe them. Those who smugly think these calamities will not happen, that they somehow will be set aside because of the righteousness of the Saints, are deceived and will rue the day they harbored such a delusion.
- Ezra Taft Benson.

hopefully this year we can all be motivated to try a little harder to be a little bit better! especially with not procrastinating what matters.

Our Christmas

Well, this year we were really lucky. we got to spend Christmas in Montana at Sterlings families cabin! And all of my family was able to be there! it was fun to be able to just relax and catch up with family we have not seen in a while!
It was so beautiful down there, and so much fun! We were able to see a bit of snow, we went skating, sledding, played some fun games, and mostly just hung out and watched all the kids go crazy! I am so glad we got to be there all together! families are the best!
We dont have tons of pictures, but here are a few:


so pretty!
