new found friends at the zoo!

Here are a few pictures from our vacation ....just a few weeks ago. We went to the zoo for a day and then headed to the Oregon Coast! We rented a house with our good friends the Millermons.
We had a wonderful time together.

Starting a blog!

Wow, I am hoping this will be fun and I will have time to do it! It took me a while to figure out what to call it. I thought of joy... the joy of life.....first of all My Savior Jesus Christ...my loving husband Eddie....and of course my 6 beautiful children! There is so much to enjoy and endure through a lifetime. If only we can have joy in the hard times and good! That is the key. I am learning much about the Providence of God. He is in control of EVERYTHING! It is all about how we will respond.... JOY? So in this blog ...I am excited to share my life and the JOY it brings.
