About Us

It's no surprise to those that know us...That we Love God, Family and German Shepherds. And of course we treasure the outdoors (especially miss Northern Ontario), music and good food. We value the work ethic and always trying to be better each moment. Everything that life has to offer with it's interwoven tapestry. Motto: FAMILY FIRST and Good Works are the Best Medicine.

FHE with the Sisters

Yesterday, I spent with little Annika while her Mommy went to get her nails and hair done. She and I were pretty happy for a little while. We played with her wooden puzzles, made a fort and she also had fun playing with the doggies.

I got to chat with my friend Janette. She has containers and seeds for me so I can prepare for my garden. Yay! And Rochelle and I looked on kijij and found some cute outdoors things for Annika. There is a kitchen set that Pheonix is going to buy and a playhouse from Rochelle's friend, Angie. Also, Rochelle might be getting her patio set back from her friend. We hope that we'll have this all ready for Saturday for Annika's birthday party which is going to have an easter hunt!

In the late afternoon, I heated up the bean soup and made a big pot of green gingered lentil soup. I also made some biscuits to go with it. We were suppose to have Calvin come but it just ended up being Shane and I and the Sisters Brandley and Klein. Rochelle went over to her friend Alanna's. We had Family Home Evening after. Here is our program:

Conducting and Presiding: Shane
Opening Prayer: Sister Missionary
Opening Song: Hymn 27; Praise to the Man
Conducting Music: Sister Missionary
Light Supper
Lesson: Shelley
God’s Plan for You
God’s plan for you is beautiful and simple. He wants you to have joy and to become more like Him.
That doesn’t mean He expects you to be perfect. He knows you won’t be. But He does expect that while you’re here on earth you try to the best of your ability to be more like Him and that you learn and grow from your mistakes. Each time you make a poor choice with painful consequences, that decision leads to unhappiness—sometimes immediately, sometimes much later. Likewise, choosing good eventually leads to happiness and helps you become more like Heavenly Father.
