Suzzy Q And Crew

"Water What You Want To Grow."

My Inspiration...For Now

"…Your Heavenly Father loves you—each of you. That love never changes. It is not influenced by your appearance, by your possessions, or by the amount of money you have in your bank account. It is not changed by your talents and abilities. It is simply there. It is there for you when you are sad or happy, discouraged or hopeful. God’s love is there for you whether or not you feel you deserve love. It is simply always there."

-Thomas S. Monson

“The sweetest experience I know in life is to feel a prompting and act upon it, and later find out that it was the fulfillment of someone’s prayer or someone’s need. And I always want the Lord to know that if He needs an errand run, Tom Monson will run that errand for Him.”

~Thomas S. Monson.


"Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved."


-Thomas S. Monson

“Noah waited 120 years before the predicted rains arrived. Abraham waited 25 years for a promised son. Joseph waited 14 years in prison for a crime he did not commit. Job waited perhaps a lifetime, 60 to 70 years, for God’s justice.”

“God prepares leaders in a slow cooker, not in a microwave oven. More important than the awaited goal is the work God does in us while we wait. Waiting deepens and matures us, levels our perspective, and broadens our understanding. Tests of time determine whether we can endure seasons of seemingly unfruitful preparations, and indicate whether we can recognize and seize the opportunities that come our way.”

John C. Maxwell


"When you marry someone, you are entrusted with the heart of another human being. Whatever else your life's great mission will entail, loving and defending this heart next to you is part of your great quest."

John Eldredge


"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."

Leonardo da Vinci


"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit."
~Aristotle


" Life is a series of problems. Either you are in one now, you're just coming out of one, or you're getting ready to go into another one. The reason for this is that God is more interested in your character than your comfort, God is more interested in making your life holy than He is in making your life happy.God didn't put me on earth just to fulfill a to-do list. He's more interested in what I am than what I do. That's why we're called human beings, not human doings.
Happy moments, PRAISE GOD.
Difficult moments, SEEK GOD.
Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD.
Painful moments, TRUST GOD.
Every moment, THANK GOD.

Pastor Rick Warren
"People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Maya Angelou

A Little About Us...

Our story began at Phoenix College Institute of Religion. I was in a scripture class, when a voice behind me answered a question Brother Johnson had asked. There was something about that voice. Now, don't be foolish enough to think that there were bells ringing and birds singing. It took another year, each of us being engaged to someone else, to see that we were meant for each other.

We married in the Mesa Arizona Temple in April of 1980. Our family grew and grew. We are blessed to have six wonderful children: Allison, married to Mike, and Adam, Grace, Joshua, and Sam, happy in Las Vegas; Ethan, married to Cameo, and Kaylee and Wade, happy in Georgia; Doran, married to Amber, with Kelsie and Kooper, and Charles, who returned to Heavenly Father; Morgan; Kayty; and Nathan married to Jessica and Annalee, Elisabeth, Emma, and Eve. We are a forever family.

Our blog will, hopefully, give you a taste of what is the Rice family. Join in the fun, excitement, challenge, and joy.
