Blogging and Making Memories

Starr Family "Makin' Memories!"
This is me - Mother Teresa -
with my eternal sweetheart, Rick.
He's the man of my dreams!!!

Recently our family hiked Mt. Timpanogas. We didn't get to the top but we did hike a good four & a half hours. What a GREAT day! It was gorgeous -- and such a BLAST!

This is our family (Daniel & his friend Neal, Dad, Tiffany & Tyler) hiking Timp. Not pictured: Jason and me. I'm taking the picture and Jason was back at camp doing homework. He's so dedicated! Our sweet son, Brandon and his cute wife, Kim aren't in the picture either. They couldn't come with us that day. We hope they can go hiking with us next summer!


Tyler, Neal, Tiffany, Daniel & Mom (Dad's the camera man for this one).

Blogging and Making Memories:

I always admired bloggers but I thought I couldn't afford the time to do a blog. Recently I have reconsidered. Time is rushing by and our kids are growing up. With as fast as life is passing us by, I now realize that I can't afford not to blog. I can't afford to forget any more special moments in time. Too often we think we will remember special family moments but life keeps up busy and often we forget the happy, little moments that make up our daily lives. From my high school days on, my close friends have known me as a person who often says, "Hey, were' makin' a memory!" Whether it's a happy memory, a hard memory, a funny memory, a frenzied memory, a sweet memory or a sad memory, we are always making memories!


Recently our family took a hike up Timpanogas. It was a wonderful moment in time; one that I hope to remember forever. I decided to start blogging so that I could do better at keeping track of all of our life's memories. I think that blogging will help us take time to savor the sweet moments with our family. So here goes, my first attempt at blogging. "Hey, we're making a memory!!!"
