Tough Week

When I thought about making a post for the blog this week. It was Monday night....and I was excited about the week. Even though I had one scary scary experience coming home from church I was super excited for the weekend. Someone must have heard me cause it's been hard everyday since.

I won't make this a chance to whine or complain. I will just make this short and to the point. Everyday when it's hard or...the night before was too crazy for me...I try to remember these few ideals.

1) My loving husband has a job he enjoys. We aren't rich but I never have been so I'm not missing anything.

2) I have two babies who are now mini adults. The conversations they hold, and statements they say surprise and amaze me. Glad I can hear them.

3) I have knowledge that if I can endure till the end the reward will be awesome. So awesome, I can't comprehend it right now. (That even makes sacrament meeting go fast!)

4)If I ever need to complain, my Mother is always a phone call away(we talk on the phone at least 5 times a day)


5)And I can always pray. That is icing on the cake since my prayers don't have to be politically correct, wont be judged on length or if they are sincere and I can pray anytime of the day.

Sunday will come as it always does and I will get to play piano and praise my Father in Heaven in song. It's a tough week but next week I get to have wedding cake at a reception. Amen to that.

Will he not smile?

I think my husband is handsome. I love his blue eyes. He tans really well in the summer. He's taller than me and makes me feel protected. I like to put my head back when he kisses me goodbye for work. I smile when he kisses my dimples. I can't keep a straight face if he's trying to be romantic. It makes me giggle like I'm 12. I like calling him....I could go on. But of all the things in the world....he rarely smiles for pictures. I think we'll make it work somehow.

Us right after we were married.....


Waiting for the ferry....

How handsome does he look though??? :)

Us in Port Angeles

I have to give him credit....he did try. And of course we do have some good smiling pictures of him...but this is pretty much how he looks in all our pictures. Ahh....at least he's handsome.
