Earth to Shannon......


The texts, emails and phone calls are wonderful and totally inviting!  It feels AMAZING to be missed and hearing my family and friends on the phone having a "real" conversation has been a change of pace and a flashback to a few years ago when I didn't live on the computer.

FACEBOOK took OVER my life!  I loved the red little tickers letting me know that I had a message, a notification or a friend request!  I would STOP whatever I was doing to check and clear those red tickers off my screen....even if that meant ignoring one of my children or half listening to a phone call with a friend. Before I knew it....an hour (or two...or three) have passed by!

Wake UP moment.....I was doing some spiritual reading and came across this:  "Cyberspace technologies can help keep us in touch with loved ones far away....and isolate us from those in our own home!" -Elder Bednar.

So, I took control and deactivated my Facebook account!  Those that know me well know that I give 110% to everything I do (unless it's giving blood) and so as I take this cleansing journey and focus on my family and my relationship with my Heavenly Father.....help me fill my time with meaningful relationships and heartfelt memories!

2013 in Review

Okay....so it has been a few months since I've posted!  I'm still alive and I have tons to share with you!  I just didn't want 2013 to pass by without sharing a video of all that we did as a family.  Sit back, enjoy and see what "SHANNONigans" we got into this last year!
