I have been wanting to do some kind of food storage for a long time, but I wasn't sure the best way for my family. There are dozens and dozens of different ways that you can do your food storage. I have been researching online and I even bought a few books from Deseret Book in the past six months. They all have very different approaches to food storage. Because I am in an apartment I would get discouraged about the storage space and just feel like it is impossible to do food storage right now. One day, when we have a house and more kids, then I will do my family's food storage. Well, the thought that I need to do it, kept nagging me. So, on and on I looked and finally figured out the best way to do it for my family. I first read the book, I Can't Believe It's Food Storage, which is really good and has some great recipes...that is if you have wheat and all the normal food storage stuff. Which I don't have. So, I read the book, It's in the Bag. Wow, never would ha

"Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid; for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; he also has become my salvation." 2 Nephi 22: 2. One of my favorite scriptures that has helped me through a lot. Just wanted to share. XOXO-Erin

Here are pictures from the Temple Sealing at the Bountiful, Utah Temple. Thanks to Mandy Waters for taking such great pictures in spite of a cranky toddler. Check out her blog, creatingsomethingofbeauty.blogspot.com. Thank you all who where there, and all that couldn't come. We love you all and pray for you and your family's.

On Saturday the 15th of May we were sealed as a family for time and all eternity. It was one of the most memorable day in my life. I am happier than I have ever been. I cannot describe the overwhelming peace that I have right now. It was truly a spiritual high and I can't wait to go back to the Temple often to feel that again and again. Thank you for everyone that was there for us. It really meant so much to have the people there that love and care for us and our little girl. We were sealed in the Bountiful, Utah Temple and that Temple will now forever be close to my heart. I just have to say that I have a testimony of the truthfulness of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I have a testimony of the Book of Mormon. I believe in Heavenly Father and his son Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost. And I believe that the Temple is the only place that family's can become together sealed for eternity. I pray that everyone can feel that peace and assuredly of the gospel too. I l

We are going to be sealed as a family on May 15th, 2010. It is long overdue, and we are happier than ever. We are more than grateful for all the people that are coming out to go through with us. I want to give a shout out to my sister Joi that can't come and pray that she has a speedy recovery. We are so blessed to have wonderful caring families and we thank everyone that stood by us until we were ready to go to the temple. We love all of you. XOXO-Erin

Our baby girl #2(which is what we are calling her for now), is growing and kicking a ton. I went to a Dr. appt and everything is great. I have gained weight since my last appt. and the Dr. was like...what happened between last time and now? I said...I just started eating and couldn't stop. Also my sciatic nerve is acting up every day...which is so not cool. It hurts so bad and is really paralyzing. So, lately I have just rested and been eating. Not a good combination. Here are some ultrasound pictures that I haven't shared yet. I am up for any name suggestions, although we are not sharing the name until she come to this world. XOXO-Erin
