Knowledge

I am a primary teacher to the 10 and 11 year old girls in our ward. Today our lesson was about the temple. This lesson was really humbling for me. As i was teaching the lesson about how sacred the temples are i remember sitting in primary when i was about their age and i had no idea what it was all about. I had heard my teachers and family say how great it was but i never thought it would be as great as it really is. Words cannot even begin to decribe the feeling i had when i was sealed to my husband for eternity. I am so grateful that i have the knowledge that my family is forever... eternal... neverending! I am also glad that we are so blessed to have so many temples surrounding us. I love my sweet girls in my class and i am so excited to see them grow and go to the temple someday!

My high school sweetheart!

I know that Valentines day is long over but i just wanted to say that I LOVE MY HUSBAND SO MUCH!!! He is such a hardworker and surprises me everyday with his patience and love towards his family and I. I knew from the moment i met him we would be in love for eternity! I also know that he is going to be an amazing dad someday.

This is the oldest pic i have of us on my computer, but this was almost a year after we started dating! LOL. We are kids!

Be Mine, Valentine!

This year for valentines day we went into Salt Lake and went shopping at the mall and cabelas. we both got some fun stuff that we had been wanting. We got our tax return back on friday so it worked out perfectly! I got some clothes and makeup from sephora and Garrett got some hunting gear from cabelas. We also had to get our baby something. We got him a new HUGE bed from Cabelas because he is always trying to sleep on our bed, even though we won't let him! After the mall we went to Market Street Grill and had yummy prime rib! Then we went and saw Just Go With It. It was pretty funny, a little bit naughty though. When we got home we got Coops new bed out and HE HATES IT!!! He is so scared of it because it makes noise when you touch it because its so poofy. The last few nights he has slept anywhere but that bed! Garrett put him on it the other day and was holding him on it and poor Coop was shaking!!! He is scared of anything that makes noise... the vacuum, the blow dryer, our electric toothbrushes, you name it! Oh yeah, and he is deathly afraid of WATER!!! He is a lab! Anytime you say bath he books it out of the room. It is fun to tease him! On Sunday we went to church and after took a 3 hour nap together! We never have time for naps so it felt so good. This morning before work i left Garrett a ton of chocolate and a card... Garrett is obsessed with chocolate. When i came home for lunch there were a dozen roses on the table with a card that said "You are the best wifey ever and i love you tons!" Cute! I am not one of those people who thinks valentines day is dumb. Being in love is the best feeling in the world and i love that there is a day where we can stop our busy lives and celebrate. This was Garrett and I's 6th valentines day together! Our first valentines day, we were too young to go on our own date so we ordered chinese food and watched A Walk To Remember at my mom's house! Funny! I love my hubby and every year just gets better and better!
