"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." Gordon B. Hinckley

8 Roses for Maddy’s 8th Birthday

I decided from now on for my girls on their birthdays I want to give them roses..the same amount of roses as they are on that birthday. This year Maddy got 8 pink roses from me and she loved them. They were her very first roses she had ever gotten and she was beaming!!

Then guess what…her Daddy sent her some as well…beautiful fire and ice roses and 8 of them!!! What a lucky girl she is.

So between the roses Josh sent me for our anniversary and the two sets that Maddy got we had roses everywhere and they made our house smell beautiful!!!
