The Lord's Blessings

So last night my eyes started to hurt really bad. I dont know what caused this flare up but I was in a lot of pain. I finally asked Jonah if he would give me a blessing. We tried calling our home teacher but he did not answer the phone. So, we went to our neighbors across the hall. His name is Curtis. He was home and said that he would be happy to come over and help. Jonah gave me a really good blessing. I am so grateful to have a husband who is able and worthy to give me a blessing whenever I ask for one. It means so much to me. I am also grateful for the wonderful neighbors we have. Craig was willing to drop what he was doing to come and help us out. They are really great neighbors and I am so thankful for them. Also, shortly after the blessing, our home teacher called back to check what we needed. That is another thing that I am grateful for. He is a great home teacher and is concerned about us. He is so willing to help out and he is faithful in coming to see us every month. The Lord has blessed us with some very special people in our lives. They have been so helpful and caring.

Mich's Wedding


I was able to go to my friends wedding reception a few weekends ago. I loved it. She has always been such a good friend to me and I was so glad that I got to see her and share her day with her. I was also able to meet up with a bunch of my old high school friends! I really miss them. They are really great people. They all hold a special place in my heart. I love this group picture. We have all changed so much. High school was a really great time for me. I know that most people dont say that, but I was lucky enough to share my high school experience with these great people ( plus some more ) and they are who helped make my experience so great. I love you guys!

Short Sweet and to the Point

So we had a good week for the most part. We had my mom and my aunt visit us. They came up for a teaching conference and stayed with us for a few days. I took them out to eat at the T- Bone! They loved it. Im glad I could share it with them. I also found out this past week that I have a cornea infection in both of my eyes. It is driving me nuts. I have a constant headache, my eyes burn and are scratchy and dry all the time. My vision is also really fuzzy. It hurts. I am on antibiotic drops. I went into the doctor today and he said that it was looking a little better but not much. So I have another appointment on Wednesday. I guess I will have one every other day until it goes away. We went for a hike on Sunday with our dogs. It was a lot of fun. After dropping 20 pounds I feel like I can do stuff again. I love it. Its amazing what 20 pounds lost can do for you. I feel like a whole new person. Hopefully the rest of the weight will come off. I am half way to where I want to be. Jonah had to work a lot of overtime last week. The digital switch has kept him pretty busy. That is a quick little update on us!

Happy Birthday Jonah!







Well he is caught up to me for now. Jonah is now 22! We had a great day together. First off, Jonah took Tuesday and Wednesday off of work for his birthday. I took Wednesday off so that we could go play. We woke up and I made him breakfast and gave him a birthday card. Shortly after that, we headed up to Salt Lake to go to the Hogle Zoo! It was really fun. I have not been to the Zoo for a very long time. It did rain on us though! So we got pretty wet, but it was still fun. We spent a few hours up there and then headed back home. Later that night, we went out to eat at Red Lobster with a group of our friends. It was so good to have them there with us. We had a lot of fun. After dinner we went to his parents house to have CAKE! I got him a cake from Dairy Queen. Everyone loved it! So thank you to everyone who helped make Jonah's birthday a great one! I am so grateful to have Jonah. He is a great blessing in my life. This was his first birthday since we have been married! He was pretty excited about that for some reason. But we had a lot of fun spending the day together. Enjoy the pictures. Remember....it was raining!
