Hey, so, I really have been slacking off on writing in my blog and I'm sorry. I have been really wanting to write... does that count?

Anyways, so, first off, I got my ring back! It was being resized. It's a little too big but it will do, :D. I have been missing my ring.

Here's a pic.. up there. Lol, I still don't know quite how to put pictures on my blog.

Anyways, everything is going great over here. We have been doing pretty great. I got a pay raise at my job and we have been selling a lot of our books we have around the house. Justin had a ton of really nice guitar tab books and other books. He kept them really nice too so we've been getting some extra money.

Valentine's Day was great! We first pretended to go to my sister in law's house so my brother could surprise her and take her to salt lake for a little vacation. Than, Justin and I made a really nice spaghetti dinner with a really nice salad that Olive Garden might have. It was great.

I have really been thinking lately about really enjoying the moment and living life to the fullest. It is true that as us being humans, we always want more no matter how great our life is. Accepting and loving where we are right now and here, provides the greatest happiness that money can't buy. It's easy to wish for everything to be perfect when really everything is pretty close to perfect. But, focusing on each small moment in time, in stead of focusing so much on the future and what it holds can help I think. And, if you think about it, you really do have to make time to focus on these little moments, otherwise they will just slip away. It's true, time can be either your enemy or friend. We can choose to hold on to it and make the best of it, or wish for it to keep going so we can get to something better.

I was thinking, I really, really miss my Dad, he just left too soon. I need him in my life right now, I thought. Because of this thinking, I was just feeling sad. All of the sudden, I started to think, would my Dad really want me to feel sad like this about him? My Dad was the type to live life and love every single moment in it. He also tried to make others feel the same way he did and enjoy life with him. He also wanted me to be happy and love where I was and what I was doing with my life. It's hard sometimes to do this, but, it's such a sweet feeling when you realize just how much you have and who you have around you.

So, anyways, sorry for the mushiness, I have just been really thinking about this for a long time and I've been wanting to put my feelings in writing.

Well, I have to go take care of a fix-it-ticket lol. One of life's pleasures. hehe, jk.

Bye! :D

New pictures.. just for fun

Our temple day! :)


All of the family!


This was a present my Mother-in-law gave us. Its a hand sketched picture
of the Provo Temple on the mirror with our names engraved with the saying "Together Forever".


It was an amazing day with so much joy and happiness. We have definitely been very blessed and watched over to be able to receive such an amazing opportunity. It was so worth it and I am so grateful for Heavenly Father's forgivness and long suffering towards us. I hope I can always be deserving of this great blessing.

Me, writing a post

Hello :D

So, I just wanted to write a little post to update everyone on everything that has been goin' on over here. We are doing pretty great! Justin and I have been married for a year and almost 2 months! We really love being together. He is always trying to make me happy and is so happy when I am happy. The only time he is unhappy is when I am mad at him or something. It is so sweet, I am so lucky I have such a great husband. I am working on not getting mad very often. I am doing a lot better I think.

So, anyways, its really going well otherwise. I am still working at Petsmart and Justin is having a lot of fun working at the BYU recording studio. He is in school this spring semester and it's kinda tough for him as he has 8 classes. It's a lot as all of the different professors act as though they are the only ones that are important lol. But, he's pulling through. He definitely cannot wait to graduate, which will hopefully be this December, 2009.

So, yeah, I started a diet a few weeks ago, and it was going pretty well until last night. I really got depressed and really stressed out. I was so grouchy and short tempered. I am certain I should not have been driving these last two days as my road rage was raging and roaring. But, for the life of me I could not figure out what was making me so frustrated and upset about everything and anything. Then I started thinking about our money situation, which everyone now days is having this situation in some way or another. Our debt is piling up and our money is slowly dissapearing. I felt so helpless and so angry at the world. No matter how hard I worked and how much I did, there was no way I could ever be free of the endless weight of debt. Every time I went to the store, I just scrutinized and fussed over how I shouldn't or couldn't get this or couldn't get that or really didn't need that, almost to the point that I would almost bawl the whole way home from the store because I was so stressed out about it. It may sound exaggerated, but when it comes down to it, that's exactly how I felt. Sorry, this is becoming a long post, when I said it was going to be short, lol. Anyways, also to top things off, I am on a diet and I could not drown my feelings in good, salty, fatty fat food. It drove me insane! So, last night after I had almost blown up at Justin, he made me talk about it, and we decided to go get pizza. We went over to my brother and sisters house and ate it so fast I swear it just got vaccumed into space. Mostly because of me, as I really snarfed it down.

So, anyways, everything is better now, as Justin helped me realize that we may be struggling now, but we will be okay if we keep working hard and be frugal. But, the important part is not to go insane being frugal. Just be careful and that's that.

Anyways, i better start to stop this blog as it could go on for days if I don't... seriously, I do have a mouth when it comes to my feelings. Justin can attest and protest if you would like him to about that, lol. Even though he says I'm his favorite subject, even I get frustrated with myself when I just cannot stop talking lol.

So, yah, everything IS going great. OH, I got a new fish tank!!!!!!! Its a 16 gallon bow front aquarium. That's probably what put me over the top yesterday pertaining to money as the fish tank was a big issue. I really am excited about it and am reading and studying and really looking forward to putting the fish in and taking care of them and the aquarium, but it's costly sometimes. But, basically, Justin and I both decided I did need something to take care of as I am quite baby hungry and he's gone a lot at school and work and such. So, it's for my own emotional well being and sanity lol, anyways, I will now stop the blogging.

Have a great day, and I will try to write more often... again. :D
