Good things to come...

I don't know if anyone else needs to hear this as much as I do right now in my life but it is so uplifting! And if you can't spare the 4 min and 56 sec skip to the 3 min and 55 sec mark where the full meaning of the message comes to light.



It comes from a talk given by Jeffrey R. Holland in the 1999 October Conference called "An High Priest of Good Things to Come" A great message full of hope! And I have to put the best part in again:

"Don’t you quit. You keep walking. You keep trying. There is help and happiness ahead.

It will be all right in the end. Trust God and believe in good things to come...Some blessings

come soon, some come late, and some don’t come until heaven; but for those who embrace

the gospel of Jesus Christ, they come. Of that I personally attest."

Another AMAZING Book!

I don't think I could say enough good things about this book! Everyone should own one! It is such a light, funny, uplifting and easy read! I think I should get half the profits from Emily Freeman because of all the publicity I have given her and all of the books I have bought for people. This is a must read!!!

Each chapter gives a suggestion on how to see good days. I'm going to tell you what they are, but it won't spoil the book!

1. To see a good day...change your perspective.

2. To see a good day...rise above and continue your journey, knowing the Lord is with you.

3. To see a good day...live happy.

4. To see a good day...look for God within the details.

5. To see a good day...learn to recognize the answers you need.

6. To see a good day...ask for an understanding heart.

7. To see a good day...list what you love.

8. To see a good day...remember that after the tears there will be joy.

9. To see a good day...remember the special days.

10. To see a good day...recognize the great things as tender mercies from the Lord

11. To see a good day...let the oil of gladness permeate your heart.

These 11 topics are what the book is about, and did I mention it is AMAZING!!!!

Courageous

TALK ABOUT ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES EVER!!!! I am absolutely in love with this movie and for the life of me can't figure out why it's rated PG-13 except for the fact that it is a little intense in a few parts.

There is a line I caught the second time I watched the movie that has made me do a lot of thinking about my life and life in general. The main character, whose name I totally just forgot, said "I have to accept the fact I'm going to have to do the hard things".

I have been going through some really hard things and haven't known what to do and when I heard this it made a lot of sense. There are a lot of hard things in life. But, have you noticed that the hard things are usually the right things and the best for us. So I know I just have to accept the fact I am going to have to do the hard things. I also heard it put if we always do the next right thing, no matter how hard or how long it takes eventually all will be well.

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve is very predictable with the Gee family.

Since the dawn of time (or close to it),

all the Gee's gather at my parents house to go caroling

around Sugar City. In fact we have gone to some

of the same families for so long I think we are part

of their Christmas Eve traditions.

But, before leaving there is always time for some goofing off.

I love these girls! My heart just melts every time I see them!!!

Luckily this year wasn't as cold as years past,

but everyone bundles up just in case.

I wanted to get a picture of the group as it was growing,
but this is only one of the two trailers and trucks

we used this year!

The grand kids wanted to be on the top of the

truck pulling the first trailer to have the best view!

Christmas has never been the same without my dad and I don't

think it ever will, but this year was a little easier and it's

always nice to be surrounded by family...and there is

never a shortage of that when it comes to the Gee's!
