While in Cabo we went on a private Premium Sailing Cruses. We really enjoyed the Sunset cruise, Whale watching, great music, and delicious food. We had chips and salsa they also served sushi. Jackie took out the fish and had me try it. SICK! Everyone enjoyed that but Rachel and I. We also had Bread cheeses and lunch meat. The best part was watching the whales jump out of the water. I learned something new. The tale of the whale is called a Fluke. So we went shopping and bought Whale Flukes. Here is a picture of Annette's. I really enjoyed the Sailing Cruses. We were a pretty mild group because we don't drink. The captain was grateful most people he takes out are drinkers  and  it a little more crazy for him.

Kirk and Jackie own this beautiful home in Cabo. The pool is always warm 94 degrees so yummy! It was a couples trip. Kirk and Jackie Williamson, Annette and Wally Harkness, Rachel and James Williams and I. Scott couldn't come. The weather was perfect. More pictures to come.

Celebrating 3 year anniversary of working out at Karve

 My friend Nicole and I made the 500 club the same day!

 Some of my Karve family!

I workout for: Confidence, Strength, The feeling after a workout, The feeling of accomplishment, Health, Happiness, and Stress relief! Anyone who knows me knows I LOVE KARVE! I am spiritually stronger, physically stronger and emotionally stronger! This is the best I have ever felt! Glad I found Karve! I love the workout and my Karve friends!

Sometimes you just need a good workout, a good laugh and a good friend! Kellie your class is always challenging! I love you and our many years of friendship. 

Shout out to the BEST workout EVER!!  Karve 500 club not bad for an old lady! Karve is intense with little to no impact on your joints! It burns fat and the best part is it carves out long lean muscles!! (Scott loves what it has done for my body) 😜 Take responsibility for your own physical well-being. Your soul consists of your body and spirit (see D&C 88:15). Feeding the spirit while neglecting the body, which is a temple, usually leads to spiritual dissonance and lowered self-esteem. If you are out of shape, if you are uncomfortable in your own body and can do something about it, then do it! Elder Russell M. Nelson has taught that we should “regard our body as a temple of our very own” and that we should “control our diet and exercise for physical fitness” (“We Are Children of God,” Ensign, Nov. 1998, 87; Liahona, Jan. 1999, 103). #ilovekarve #barrestrong#barre #bestworkout #elderfamilyevents

Elder family Christmas 2015 by Carlie Elder

Todd gets a new calling.

Todd got called to serve as the 2nd Counselor in the Prove YSA 41st ward in the  Provo YSA stake, Bishopric serving with Bishop Serenson and 1st Counselor is David Graig. This will be a great adventure and experience for both  Todd and Rylie. Todd shared his testimony. These are his words "I do know that Jesus Christ lives, I know that he loves each one of us, I know the Church is true. Every time I read the Book of Mormon I feel the spirit and I know that it is true. It draws us closer to God and can calm us in these scary times. I know that families can be together for ever. I know that the temple seal us together and we can have joy." 

Rylie shared her testimony also. These are Rylie's words. "She is excited and humbled to be here. I know this Church is true and that families can be together for ever. I love this Gospel with all my heart you will learn that from me. 

They are going to love this calling and they make a great team! 

Playing in the snow at the Cabin and God's beautiful world

The snow this year at the cabin was unreal!! The best sledding snow we had in a while. It was fast and so much fun. We spent a lot of time outside. I would say sometime the littles were unsure but for the most part they loved it. Carlie is the best aunt. She played in the snow a lot with them. It was definitely one of our best Christmas weeks at the Cabin. Photos by Jessie. (she is the best) My Father in Haven is real and he has blessed me with the perfect family for me. I have learned and continual to learn so much from these amazing people in my family. I truly have blessed with a good man by my side. Scott is hard working, kind, forgiving, patient and loves God more then me and that's so important to me. Each one of my children have taught me lessons that I will treasure forever! They too are kind, forgiving, patient and full of love and so fun to be with. I could not be happier with my daughter in-law (everyone knows she is perfect!) and my sons in-laws they are everything I dreamed of for my daughters and could not be more happy with the in-laws.
