HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Can't believe another year has come and gone.

Time seems to fly by these days.....

We celebrated by ringing in the New Year with our 

best friends and family at dinner and playing games!

We hung out with the Barney's, the King's and the Spuhler's!!

It was the BEST time!!

This year my word will be "FOCUS" 

I spent too much time this past year worrying.

Not being "present" for all the things happening around me

because I was worrying too much about things I couldn't do 

anything about.  I want to serve more.  I want to do more for my family.

I want to listen more.  More intently.  I want to put my phone down more.

I want to just be there more. 

"We would do well to slow down a little...

focus on the significant, lift up our eyes,

and truly see the things that matter most."  

                               --Dieter F. Uchtdorf

MY JOY IS FULL ❤️

My heart is overflowing with happiness today

and my JOY is FULL!

My family was all together last night 

as we SKYPED with our missionary in the Philippines!!

He was not able to Skype on Christmas day

because there was a super typhoon that hit

his mission right on Christmas.....

He has been without power for almost two weeks,

but was able to get through to us and boy was the wait worth it!

Thank heavens for technology, we were able to be together

from the Philippines, to Pennsylvania, to Utah, to Arizona!!

Elder Baker is happy, healthy and has a the wonderful spirit of 

Christ with him and is such a good missionary!  We are so proud of him

and the good work that he is doing sharing the message of Christ with 

the people in the Philippines!  We love our family, we are thankful

that our family can be ETERNAL!  And we are thankful that Dillon is

sharing the message that every family can have that same blessing!!
