I'm the mother of four. I enjoy music, reading and crafting. I work in a fabric store. I'm also a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Here's some of what goes on in my mind...

Today is the last day of school. For some of the kids, it means finals and turning in projects. For my youngest, however, it is a time for games and celebration.
Last Friday, Peter had Field Day at school. He spent most of the time in the bouncy houses, but he also played with the parachute a hula hoop, and he participated in the class tug-of-war.
Today, they had their awards ceremony. Each of the 90 fifth graders received an award, and then was celebrated by the celebration of his or her choice. (sorry these pictures aren't as clear. I took them with my camera phone.) Peter received the "Attention to Detail" award, and then chose "Seal of Approval" for his celebration.
apparently the "selfie" camera feature takes pictures backwards.
Peter and Mrs. Priola, his original homeroom teacher. She took time off halfway through the year to have a baby.
Peter and Ms. Overton, his math teacher.
Peter and Ms. Meyer, the teacher who took over when Mrs Priola left.
It's strange to think that my youngest child has finished elementary school, but this is it. Next year I'll have to middle schoolers and two high schoolers!
We are pleased to announce the wedding of Joshua Hiatt and Rebekah Eckert on December 21st, 2024 Josh and Bekah were engaged in August, shortly after Josh turned 21. They met at institute and have known each other for about 3 years. I'm glad that my parents and my sisters Lindy and Heather and her family were able to come join in the celebration. Thank you Heather for taking the pictures. These were my favorites!
I recently told my bishop that I enjoyed giving talks in Sacrament Meeting, and it is true. I didn't expect, however, that I would get an email from a bishopric member on Thursday last week to say that his talks for Sunday had to leave town, and would I be willing to speak? Here is the talk that I gave on Sunday, May 27th, 2012: For my topic today, I was given a talk which was given by President Monson in 1992, entitled “An Attitude of Gratitude”. In his talk President Monson begins by telling the story of the 10 lepers. I would like to share it with you. In Luke 17 we read: And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: And they lifted up their voices, and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.” And when he saw them, he said unto them, “Go show yourselves unto the priests.” And it came to pass, that, as they went, ...
On Wednesday school was cancelled all over the Denver area because there was a credible threat that an 18 year old woman with a fixation on the Columbine shooting would attack a school. Apparently she arrived in Denver and bought a gun and then vanished, so they shut down everything just in case. (They found her body later that day... She committed suicide. More info here .) John was frustrated that school was cancelled because one acts are coming up (they are this week!) and he needed the rehearsal time. Instead, John took advantage of the free day to go to School of Mines to check out the campus and talk to someone about getting his admission deferred. I got a ride to my book club, and both of us were home again before Josh and Peter rolled out of bed. Early in the afternoon I took Josh to Children's Hospital to see a cardiologist about his seizures . They did an EKG, but the results were normal. He doesn't have a heart murmur or anything else they could identify. I still thi...
