My mini laptop

So this semester has been tough for me. I am ready to be done and I struggle going and it doesn't help that my teachers talk really fast and I write really slow...So I had some extra money and decided that I would try to solve both problems. I bought a mini laptop. This has made me a bit more excited to go to school, and I can type faster than I can write so I should be able to take better notes! Hooray for my cute little laptop, and just to understand how mini those scriptures are the smallest size of combo scriptures.

WHOOO Go David!!!

Well David is doing very well this semester. I think it is because he is finally in his major and taking classes he likes. Last week he took a test and got in the 80's and yesterday he took another test and got 100%. He is doing so well, and I am so proud of him. GO DAVE!!

My lesson went well...well at least I didn't cry...that much

I really do love my new calling...it is hard and at times overwhelming, but very rewarding (for me!) When I have heard relief society teachers say that they lessons they prepared must have been just for them because it is what they needed I never fully understood until now. I have come to realize that as I am preparing for a lesson it really is EXACTLY what I am needing to hear. I am grateful that Heavenly Father has enough faith in me that he has trusted me with this new calling. I hope and pray that I will be an instrument in his hands to teach those around me the things that He would have me teach. Also thank you to everyone who has prayed in my behalf for my last lesson, I truly believe in the power of prayer and I know that I was blessed.

Well David and I might be moving....

Now before I tell you where, just remember it is not as bad as it seems. Okay so the other day David and I were driving and just talking about dreams and whatever and I told Dave about one dream that I have to live in a mortuary. I know that sounds kind of morbid but it really isn't. A long time ago I had a health teacher that told us about when she was first married and that they lived in one and it was free rent, and I am all about free rent. Anyway, the next day a guy David knows, out of the middle of no where told him that their is an opening a a mortuary in Provo that is looking for a couple to move in. It is free rent, plus they would pay us $300.00 just to live there and answer phones. The only problem is.....it is all time consuming. We would have to be there weekdays from 5pm to 8am and saturdays from 3pm until Monday morning at 8am. Yes that means no church no vacations, no holidays unless we can find someone that is willing to come to our apartment and stay there while we are gone. I hope it works out. It would be so nice to live there. It is only for a year, and I think it would be well worth it, but I will keep you posted on what we decide to do.

A little update you ask....

Well everyday that passes is one day closer to graduation for both David and I. Granted that gradutation date is still a long ways out there...like two years or so but it gets closer everyday.

I got a new calling at church...I thought I had flown under the radar long enough that they had forgotten to give me a calling...but as it turns out I was wrong....but I am the new 4th Sunday relief society teacher.

David talked me into bringing his bowflex down here....and what a pain that it was, but all the pain and effort was worth it!

I just finished putting all my wedding photos away in their proper places in my wedding book! Yahoo!! Two years later.....About time right?

Life is going great! We are very blessed, and continue to be blessed everyday!

What kind of games did we play on our anniversary you might ask?

Well ones that might involve this......Or this......and definatly this.....

And perhaphs.....even these.....
WELL....if you haven't guessed yet....David and I bought a wii!

I am sure glad that we did!

We love it!

What did we do for our anniversary you ask?

Well let me tell you....We woke up Saturday morning and drove to the Salt Lake Temple to do some sealings...it only seemed fitting to go back to the place where it all began. Although on the way down there I went to take a picutre but realized very quickly that I had accidently left my camra chip at home...so we quickly wen't to best buy to buy a cheap one...and barely made it on time to our sealing session. My mom and dad and brother Kirk and his sweet wife Debbie joined us. It was so fun, and (for lack of a better word)an awesome expirence. Getting to sit next to David in a sealing room holding his hand, brought back so many memories, of our wedding day, and everything else that had brought us to where we are today. After we were done with sealings we went to chuck-a-rama for lunch (Thanks Dad!) but not of course until we got a few pictures infront of the temple.

On our way home...on a spure of the moment thing, David suggested going to the Living Aquarium in Sandy...I have been wanting to go there for a very long time. It was so cool. Seeing all the different fishes and we got to touch a sting ray, star fish, and some other scary looking things. I would suggest to anyone that has a chance to go.....Go! You won't regret it!

We spent the remainder of the night grocery shopping. You might say that is lame...but not to me...David doesn't get a chance to go with me shopping often, and I loved having him there! We got chinesee food for dinner and just played games with each other.

What a wonderful anniversary!
