Feeling Grateful

I am feeling very blessed these days. The Lord has heard our prayes and poured out blessings, so many blessings. For that, I am full of gratitude.

We have a new place to call home. A two bedroom place, in our ward, for an amazing deal! Now that is a triple threat I am happy, no ECSTATIC to have found! I am jumping for joy and driving Brent crazy will all of my moving and redecorating energy. Lucky guy.

School is going well, classes look good for both of us. Hooray for education. May it end one day, with a fancy diploma.

I have yet again another calling in the ward. This time in Primary. YIKES! I was terrified. I was so happy and content in the Young Women's program. That's when they get you right? I survived the first Sunday, it was grand. In fact, I got a 100 Grand candy bar from one of the kids. Chocolate will win me every time!

I saw this quote and just sat and thought. Yes, my life is so rich and full of many things and the gratitude helps me really see.

Our days

Life is hard and I guess we should expect to have trials and unpleasant events happen, but I am thankful for the good days. Today is one of those. Just me and my Little Miss enjoying our days together. With all these kids back in school I am thankful that I still get my baby to myself for a long while! These last seven months have gone by all to quickly. WHY? I miss my newborn, but at least she gets cuter every day.

It has been a challenging month. I will not be sad to see August end, except that will make my baby eight months old. Blast. For that reason alone, lets freeze time. Oh that sweet Genivieve, I love her more than she will ever know. Well, maybe she will know when she gets that blessed chance to become a mommy, yes, then she will know just how much I love her!

Yet another semester starts Monday. Goodbye until Christmas Brent, at least we will see you for a few days for Thanksgiving! What a man, working full-time and taking 17 credits while making the Presidents list! Like I said, what a man!


Here's to September, let it be a good one. With a move in sight, I can already hear the two bedroom place calling my name!

July

WE have been enjoying time together. Brent has finished up his summer semester. We are just so proud of him. He worked all day in this Arizona heat and spent all evening study Calculus. Did I mention he came out enjoying himself and he Aced the course. Way to go Babe!

Now that we get him in the evening for a month we are cure enjoying it!  Here are some picture of with Genivieve. We really should get in some of the pictures, so she knows what we look like.

She loves to eat rice cereal and love to knock the spoon out of Mom's hand.

That's our Peanut!

Loves to stand and play

She is the most social baby. Here with her Best Friend Miss A.
We are happy and healthy and counting our many blessing. Life is not perfect but our little family brings us so much joy and we should just forget about the unhappy stuff. Hope everyone is enjoyning summer. Next post, I will get a picture of all three of us.
