Today is going to be SUPER!

Can I tell you how much stress I had this week?! Boy, was I busy. I was in charge of our ward's super activity this last Saturday. I had the girls choose between 2 different crafts. The first one was making a little Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus wood, string art craft.
 

The other craft was a paper dahlia

 

They also could make chocolate dipped pretzels! It was a great time on Saturday chatting and hanging out with all the girls, but getting it all set up was the most difficult part. I couldn't sleep most of the week thinking about all of the things I needed to get and get done. I had to chop all the wood and that took some time. I also had to cut out all the stencils or vinyl for the girls a well. 
I do have to say though, I thoroughly enjoyed crafting with everyone!! It really made me want to start up my little workshops once a month to get a group together to build crafts! 

I get so excited during this time of the year. Family, food, and crafting! I absolutely love the spirit of how everyone is and how kind and giving people are. I get super excited to build thing and spend lots of time creating gifts for others. Now, don't get me wrong. I definitely have my not so good days, but I always try to find the best out of the day. 

Mikal took me on a mini date. Which means, walking the dog and stopping by the Cocoa Bean to get a drink. If I could go get a drink anywhere, that is the PLACE. It is super! 😀 I have to take any chance I can get to go on a date with him since Mikal is usually super busy with hunting season.

December 2021

The first day of December,  we were able to do something very special. We signed up to create an ornament to place on the tree at the hospital for families who have lost a child or had a miscarriage. It was a very sweet thing and both Mikal and I got emotional. It was so nice that someone takes the time every year to put on something so special for those during this time of the year. We went home and then we decorated our fresh cut Christmas tree to lighten the mood. Dean was so happy to put up the decorations! This year my mom decided to not put up her Christmas lights, so I met Carter in Moses Lake and picked up the lights. That next week, I put them up! It was fun to be festive this year and Dean looked forward to the Christmas lights turning on every night and driving around looking at them. Christmas is a magical time of year for him and it’s so great to see him get so excited!   We took a drive up to Chelan to find some snow. We got look for animals and see some beautifu...

And suddenly you know.... It's time to start something new

June 23th-- June has been one of the biggest months in our life. LOTS of changes are about to occur in the Terry family! We have decided that we are going to do  In Vitro Fertilization!  The beginning of May, we knew it was time to start something new. We called a fertility doctor in Logan (that our friend referred us to) and he asked us when we wanted to start the procedure and we told him as soon as possible. He said he was just finishing up a group of people and his next group would be doing the procedure the beginning of July. So that following week I started one of the many medications to get my body prepped for the procedure. My box of injections that was shipped to me. What I had to take daily for injections The doctor we have been working with is such a personable doctor. He checks in regularly, sends me texts, and makes sure I know exactly what is going on with my body. It is amazing that by giving your body medication, you can prepare it to carry a baby. ...

Leaves are Falling, Autumn is Calling

In Idaho, you can NEVER predict the weather. One day you will be wearing shorts and dying of heat and the next day it can snow. Ha! Summer was a quick one here and ended very abruptly, but lucky for me, this is my favorite time of year. Especially in Idaho. The colors, harvest time, canning season, the scents in the air just make me so happy! It also makes Mikal happy as well because that means it is that time to go up to the mountains to go HUNTING and down to the river to go FISHING! Mikal finished his archery class last week and now is dying to go get a bow to hunt. We took a drive up to the mountains on Friday and visited his uncles at their hunting camp. It was pretty muddy driving up there and there ended up being a bit of snow as well. It was so beautiful! I have also been working on sewing projects and started looking at more fall craft ideas. I have tons of wood projects I want to build, but we have been so busy with activities and outing that we have not been abl...
