Kyle is 12

I can not believe he is 12!
He was given the priesthood on Sunday and will pass the sacrament tomorrow. I am so proud of him he is turning into a great young man.   

Love

Did you know I love this man?

It am still amazed that he is here with me.

I love that we got to spend another Christmas together...

and what a wonderful Christmas it was.

We were so blessed by our wonderful family 

They do so much for us

And the kindness of strangers still takes my breath away

Some day I hope to return the favor.

But I guess for now it is my job to learn humility.

We are taught to serve others....

But we must also learn to let others serve us.

to be humble.

I know its time to post

I know it is time to post when I get to the bottom of Amy's list. Things are good in Utah. The weather is very mild and I am really enjoying it. School is going great I think I will end up with straight A's this semester as long as I do good on my finals. I have been able to work with some midwives down here and that has been great! Love to keep my hands in it.
We have decided that it is time for Ray to try and work some. He has done some volunteering at DI the church thrift store. They have a program for disabled people to work there so he is applying for the program. It will be part time work and they work with people with his issues so I think it will be a very positive thing for him. So hopefully by the New Year he will be doing that.
Mom and Dad are here and that has been great. They are eager for there mission call to come, they are not so much for being in limbo land.
Well that is about all.

 

just some pics

hi

OK so the song on Amy's photo blog made me cry my eyes out. That is kind of weird because it is the song that was played at my wedding. Any way I think that I am just over whelmed and maybe a little stressed. So much to do that needs to be done well. Miss you guys wish we were all close.
PS I do not want to be a nurse. I want to be a midwife.

Motherhood: An Eternal Partnership with God

So I loved this video and my Primary Pres is in it. The park that they are playing at is the one up the road from my house.

Camping

We went camping this weekend or really Sunday night and Monday night. We had a great time. It was the kind of camping everyone says is not really camping because we only went about 10 miles from our house to Utah lake and stayed in a nice campground with electric plug ins for the trailer and flush toilets; never the less we had a great time. We did all the camping things the kids got to sleep in a tent, we had camp fires and smores, and even played kick the can. We even rented canoes. that was the highlight of the trip for me. I got to sit in the canoe and have other people namely Ray and Kimber paddle me around. I was to scared to sit up like a big girl and paddle my self. Thanks everyone for coming I hope we have lots more fun trips this summer.
