I started a new blog today

Frequently I surf the web and subscribe to feeds for card ideas. I am reluctant to leave comments on other paper crafting blogs, because I don't want it to be associated with my identity to this blog, with my little personal stories, my family pics, etc.

So I started a fun new blog where I can show off my cards and leave it basically unpersonalized, other than from an artistic point of view. I'll have a link to it from here, but I will not have a link from there back to my "everyday" blog.

After searching for availability, the name for the hyperlink will be My Little Hobby, but I wanted a different blog title. I looked through the SU catalog and spotted a stamp set that's not exactly my style, but I like the name of it. It's called "And Everything Nice." So check it out if you'd like, and feel free to leave comments on it any time. I'm excited about it!

Kelly-

I went through and looked at the cards on your new blog. They are so cute. You are so creative and I wish I was there to attend your card camps. I am sad that I was never able to make it. Now I have so much free time on my hands, cards have become a big part of my life. I make them and sell them at the Flowershop. Maybe I will post some too!

Kelly,
Love your new blog--love your cards! You are so creative. I'm glad I've been able to go to a few card camps. I'm always in need of a card and it's so much more meaningful to give someone a card you've made --especially when it looks fabulous!

Book of Mormon Stories Pool Party!

Hopefully this title, Book of Mormon Stories Pool Party , does not sound irreverent, because as an Activity Days leader, I felt compelled to come up with a fun end-of-the-summer event that is also uplifting, and after all, who doesn't love a splash in the pool on a hot day in August?  My current church calling, or official role that I volunteer for, allows me to plan two activities each month for girls ages 8 to 11, that will encourage them to learn and live the gospel, serve others, and use the talents Heavenly Father has given them, to learn to do many good things.  This year's seminary course of study for high school students is The Book of Mormon, and since I am a huge fan of this inspired book of scripture, I came up with this idea to have each girl show up to my house with a written summary of one of her favorite stories from within its many pages, and share it with the rest of the girls, while outside in our swimsuits near our backyard swimming pool!  As each girl shares

Our new daughter!

This picture was taken at church a few days ago while Kelly was on his way to the US for work this week. We have some wonderful news to share.  We are adopting 7-year-old Yeh Min Yu, who has been in our home off and on the last couple of months.  There's a lot that goes into making this official, dealing with US Homeland Security to arrange for her immigration visa, Taiwan courts and Chinese documents, getting a home study done by a licensed, qualified person, applying for a passport.  You have no idea.  I'll be glad when it's all done, but I couldn't wait to share this bit of joy with everyone.  We will name her Hannah to go on her new US birth certificate.  She's excited and nervous to go to America with us.  She can say more than 100 words in English so far.  Some of her favorite things to say are "small dog, butterfly, apple, pig."  She says it more like pig-uh.  We love her and feel this is one of the reasons we came to Taiwan.  Who would have thoug

Elder Larson to return from Thailand soon

Soon is relative, I suppose. Our son has been away from home more than a year and a half as he has been volunteering as a full-time missionary in the Thailand Bangkok Mission of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints since September 14, 2016. He will be home in four months and is working so hard, knowing his time there is winding down. He has been assigned to train Elder Ben Meyer, from Sydney, Australia, as they serve in Ubon, Thailand. Christopher has been there since November. We are very proud of his dedication and hard work. This week in Thailand, the new prophet, President Russell M. Nelson, with his wife, Wendy Nelson, along with one of the Twelve Apostles, Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, and his wife, Patricia Holland, will be on their world ministering tour and be where our son is. The Church members and missionaries in Thailand are very excited and happy for this special visit! I can't wait to hear how it goes, and I look forward to pictures and stories to come.
