Perfect Easter Message

I found this short video clip while preparing for my sharing time I have GET to teach tomorrow. It really sets the mood for tomorrow being the most sacred holiday we have. I love it!

Happy Birthday!!

Wednesday, April 20th was Jeremy's 22nd birthday! We didn't do anything very exciting because we both had to work, but it ended up being a great day anyway. We got to go to dinner a few different times this week with both of our families and got to spend time together not worrying about school or work. It's crazy to think that we have been dating since he was 17... Anyway I just wanted to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY JER, I love you!

This was my first time baking a real cake and it turned out a little tilted but it was yummy in-spite of the way it looked... I got the recipe and idea from Im a baker. Obviously mine didn't turn out as good as hers but its the thought that counts.

Family Night

Tonight we had the Jean family from our branch over to my parent’s house for family night. They moved into our branch 4 months ago and we love having them with us. They are originally from Haiti, moved to Florida about 15 years ago and eventually made their way to Utah. They have 10 people in their family but 3 of the kids are still in Florida. Jeremy of course being the sweetheart he is, went out of his way to meet their whole family when they moved in. After going into their home Jeremy realized what little they had. Jeremy and I got to go with our Branch President to the DI and get some essentials they didn’t have (beds, mattresses, couches, kitchen table, pots, pans, food, etc). After getting to know this family, I fell in LOVE. They are so humble and grateful for what little they do have. They have such strong testimonies and have never missed a day, let alone an hour of church. They have total faith in the Lord that their family will be taken care of. At times I focus on the next thing I want to buy and have a lists of things that I "need", I’m grateful for the happiness they show me because of the joy they have in the relationships with each other. Ultimately family is what is most important!!

Then the boys wanted to show off their great singing!! Sorry its a little short my camera ran out of memory.

Gotta LOVE the gym

So I just got back from the gym and while I was looking at the bulletin board, I met a bald man that was 51 years old (turning 52 in July- I don’t know why he told me his birthday). He never told me his name but… he did show me his massive biceps (and when I say massive I’m being totally sarcastic) and better yet took off his weight belt, flexed, pulled up his shirt and showed me his abs… I about threw but it totally made my day! CREEPER!!!

Holy Birthdays

The past few weeks have been filled with nothing but birthdays! Just wanted to say to our FAVORITE people Happy Birthday!!! We love you!

So Cute!

Jeremy and I have a new little nephew Camden Riley Rose! This post is a little late, he was born February 15, 2011 but better late than never. We are so happy he is finally here and we just love him! Thanks Brooke and Malcolm for the cutest kids in the world for us to all enjoy.

Temple Wedding Video

I know this is probably annoying that I'm putting up a second wedding video and we got married 6 months ago but it makes it easy to share with family and friends that care to see it. I loved Nate Pickett! He was the perfect person for the job and I would recommend him to anyone that needs a Videographer.
