LOVE this Quote: Pres. Monson

"Life is perfect for none of us. Rather than being judgmental and critical of each other, may we have the pure love of Christ for our fellow travelers in this journey through life. May we recognize that each one is doing her best to deal with the challenges which come her way, and may we strive to do our best to help out."

This is the most amazing talk by our incredible prophet. This talk touched me at the RS broadcast and again when reading it this weekend. I can't stop thinking about it and hope to implement it in my life. We are all sisters and trying to reach the same goal. Let's lift each other, see a need and help out, be more compassionate and forgiving.

My Christmas MUST HAVES- Thank You Shutterfly!

Can you believe it's already November? You know what that means...Christmas is just around the corner!!! I have a few things that are MUST HAVES for the Christmas season and this year I can get them all done at Shutterfly. I just don't have the time to shop around so having Shutterfly as my one-stop shopping site is right up my alley.

1. CHRISTMAS CARDS: I like to make my own Christmas cards, but this year I just don't see any way that's going to happen. So when I came across Shutterfly's fabulous Christmas card collection I knew it was the route for me. I used Shutterfly in the past for photos, but was never impressed with their cards. Well, this year they have outdone themselves. Check these out:

A spot for each of my 4 kids:

Room for lots of pictures:

Love the details on this one:

2. PHOTO CALENDAR: Who doesn't need a calendar and why not have it be personalized with photos of your favorite people? I make a photo calendar each year and it's always my favorite present under the tree. (Yes, I wrap it up for myself. I know, I'm a little crazy.) This year I'm loving this style! Wouldn't that put a smile on your face every time you looked at your calendar?
