As I mentioned yesterday we were able to Skype with our son Dalton and it was the happiest day ever. Today Dalton sent an email to our family and his friends and in that letter he shared something that was worth sharing – in fact he even mentions in his email that someone should quote [...]

Ah, yes, time. The one thing we never seem to have enough of. Days pass by so quickly that it feels impossible to get it all done. And yet some days we go at a million miles an hour only to come to the end of the day and wonder what the heck we actually [...]

A man, whom I have tremendous respect for, shared a poem he wrote himself over the course of many years of his life, starting when he was 68 years old and finishing it at the age of 88. It tells a fantastic message of why we should embrace the process of growing older, as growing [...]

“Never forget that you are one of a kind. Never forget that if there weren’t any need for you in all your uniqueness to be on this earth, you wouldn’t be here in the first place. And never forget, no matter how overwhelming life’s challenges and problems seem to be, that one person can make [...]

There is little that I enjoy more than spending quality time with a group of great friends. Today I went to the BYU Founders Board Meeting (Brigham Young University board I serve on). It was a great meeting and I truly joy serving with such amazing board members. All are highly successful people who place integrity and [...]

I can hardly believe that it was exactly one year ago, last Saturday, that we signed the closing documents to sell MediConnect (MCG). Since that day it has been a sheer whirlwind of activity so when I realized that it was the one year anniversary over the weekend all I could think of is how it [...]

Have you ever had a week where you get to Wednesday and you feel like you it’s been three weeks, yet it’s only been three days? Yeah, well it’s been one of those weeks so far. I haven’t slept enough, I’ve pushed myself to hard, I’ve taken on too much…I know all of you can [...]

In the world of business we spend a significant amount of time coming up with company mission statements and company values. We then set company goals that we believe will help us achieve our company purpose. In companies it’s just expected that every company has gone through that exercise. But when is the last time [...]

“You’re Gonna Miss This” are the lyrics in the chorus of a song that is incredibly impactful by Trace Adkins. The song is about cherishing the moments of our lives as they happen because there will come a day when you will miss those moments greatly. That lesson and message applies to so many areas [...]
Some days I get really frustrated at the fact that there are a million things I really want to get done, yet there are just not enough hours in the day to do them all! And trying to pick and choose which things to put first can be one of the most challenging parts of [...]

I came across an article written by Max Lucado, in 2005. It was too good of an article not to share with everyone and the message is amazing! Find Joy In The Ordinary “We played every game we knew. We ran up and down the hall. We played “find me” behind the couch. We bounced the beach [...]
Sometimes we get so caught up in doing “stuff” that we forget to take time to have a little fun in life. Between work, children, cleaning the house, community involvement, doing laundry, church responsibilities, etc, etc, etc, we simply don’t take time to get out and have a good time. Tonight I was reminded how [...]

From the time I was young I was dedicated to the idea that if I was going to do something in my life I was going to do it 100%. I never wanted to be the girl who did things halfway. I just felt that if I was going to put my name on something [...]
This weekend I thought a lot about precious moments in our lives. Isn’t it interesting that we so often don’t relish the moments in life until they have passed? Things like snuggling with our kids, or playing a game with our family, or a kiss with our sweetheart, or laughing on the phone with a [...]
