Nothing New

"Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored. "

Where to start??

Well I've been working at my new job for almost 2 months now and I love it!  J Ryan got a new calling in boy scouts / Young Men.

We’re still on the road to the temple, slowly but surely we will get there!

There is nothing really new going on in our lives right now so this post will be short and sweet!

Moving Forward

"Through this power, I was able to ordain each of my sons to the priesthood and thus give them the power of God to administer His ordinances.”

On Sunday the 10^th J Ryan was ordained a Priest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was so amazing and you could feel the spirit so much! 

We had both his and my parents and my little brother, his older brother Jim there.

I’m very proud of my husband! We soon will be starting the Temple Prep lessons with Jim and Beth Epps teaching it to us.

In other news.....

J Ryan has now twice helped Jim with Church hiking/camping trips. He has had tons of  fun, he is trying to get me and Beth to go onto a hike with them. 

On Monday I went in to have my teeth pulled and exposed! 

On Monday an Ortho surgeon  pulled five teeth, three extra and two baby teeth. I have between 8-10 stitches in my mouth and three chains going into my gums attached to the adult teeth to pull them up.

It's not as bad as it sounds, the only bad, painful thing is the stitches. I can feel the ends and it is driving me crazy!!!!!

My mouth kinda hurts and my lip is still numb, but I’m looking forward to the ending look!

Welcome!

Welcome!

Almost a year ago J Ryan and I made a decision to be together forever.  One day we will be walking hand in hand in front of the eyes of our family and friends leaving the Salt Lake Temple (or maybe the Payson) as a sealed family.  Until that time I've started our Family blog to keep family and friends in the loop!

It has almost been a year since we've been married and six months since J Ryan has been home, WOW has time passed! We had gotten in the last year 4 chickens (2 now for 2 of our dogs have killed Buff and Tweet), 3 Dogs, a dozen rabbits have come and gone, and no kids. We had been given a Sunday school calling, our class is CTR 7’s and we LOVE it! J Ryan works at Camp Williams and I will be starting work at South Rim Reality.

 Life is crazy but it is all worth it to have gotten to know all of our friends, our families and each other.

I’m so very excited to start our blog so be watching, I’ll be posting!
