Conference cinnamon rolls




My sister makes cinnamon rolls for each General Conference, therefore I must make cinnamon rolls for every General Conference. My family looks forward to this tradition more than I do, but when I actually get to the process I enjoy making them. Justus ate 2 in about 4 minutes and Mike and I had to tell him no more for fear that his stomach would blow. I love my family and I know they will always remember cinnamon rolls at conference time.

Bunnies prefer chocolate



After 3 consecutive Springs of working on this applique quilt I am terribly excited to say "I HAVE FINISHED BUNNIES PREFER CHOCOLATE!" I fell in love with this quilt 3 years ago and had so much fun with my Mom finding the materials to make it, then came the three Springs of working on it and I loved watching each square come to life. We both finished our bunny quilts this Spring and I love them. Bunnies may prefer chocolate, but I prefer chocolate bunnies.

Pickled Eggs


Aren't these just beautiful?, My mother-in-law posted the recipe for these pickled eggs on her blog and I was so excited to try making them, I love pickled eggs! If you would like the recipe go to grammyshappyplace.blogspot.com.

Grandpa Pineda


Last night I had the opportunity to say goodbye to my Grandpa Pineda. He passed away just before midnight from heart failure, he was 85. Grandpa was the last surviving granparent and now that generation is gone. It is a sad time when you have an entire generation no longer on this earth.
This morning I had the opportunity to go to a session at the Draper Temple. I felt peace there and I am thankful for the opportunity to be there. The members that volunteer at the temple were so kind, sweet, and loving, I felt right at home.
I know my Grandpa Pineda is in a wonderful place and I am glad for him.
