missionary gifts

My good friend Stephanie made these and I am so excited about them! They are free printables of all the 50 states! They are 4×6 inches, so they are perfect for project life, scrapbooking, or in a frame as art. I want to use them for my project life book for my family road trip […]

As many of you know, my twin boys are serving Missions for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Their service has brought many blessings to our family AND many amazing experiences! I am often asked how I am preserving the memories of their two years of service....

I wanted to send our missionaries something that would bring the true meaning of Easter into their lives during Passion Week - or the week leading up to Easter Sunday. I came up with the idea of an Easter Advent calendar where they would have something to open each day. There are lots of ideas floating around on Pinterest and on the Internet but Mason comes home soon and I didn't want him to think that he had to haul anything around with him for these last few months. Totally start to freak…

Bon Voyage!! This was a travel package saying Bon Voyage (Safe Travels) for him to have for his long trip to France. I forgot to take a picture of the things I put in this package. So I am going to list them. *Travel pillow for the 10 hour flight *Mission Talks folder (Tyler wanted Jaxon to have a folder to put all his talks in to have throughout his mission. He wished he had one when he was on his mission). *Recipes - Family recipes for Jaxon to have in France. I put just the simple quick…

One of my most favorite things about my son's letters is that he shares with us his daily "Hand of God" experiences. As he watches for the Hand of God in his daily life he is beginning to cultivate an "Attitude of Gratitude". And by so doing he is teaching me to be more observant with my own "Hand of God" experiences - falling in love all over again with my husband, watching my son knell across the alter from his beautiful bride in the Draper temple, finding out another son and his wife are…

Easter is in just a couple weeks, and I wanted to make sure that my sister Corrie had some Cadbury Mini Eggs down in Chile. :) But I didn't want them to be the only thing in the package (even though that heavenly candy would have held its own;) so I searched the web for creative Easter packages for missionaries...and I scored when I found this post about a cute mom sending a "Son-shine" package to her boy serving a mission. LOVED that it was fun and festive, but emphasized that Easter really…

I don't know about your corner of the world but in our corner of Utah it is January and it is BROWN. This is not a normal color for this time of year for us. Normally we are coated with lots of fluffy white stuff at this point in time but alas, this year we are not. Surprisingly Ohio is looking particularly brown this year as well. We've both been blessed with skiffs of snow but nothing that has stuck around or required shoveling (unless you aren't content to wait until noon just to see if…

Sending some love to my cute missionary and friends...
