Today was the BiG Day!!!

We took some pictures outside the temple today, but I always forget how to load them, so one day I will post them. We were officially a forever family this morning at eleven. It was really exciting because the temple president Christiansen presided over our sealing. He made the experience so much more than expected and I am really greatful for such a wonderful family to behold. We didn't take many pictures, because we are planning to take some later professionally. Hopefully we will be able to get the whole family together. I was disappointed that my side of the family wasn't able to come, but I know they wanted to (and I was determined to not let it get to me as I thought of them). D was asleep the entire time! But everyone said that he played very cute with all the workers!
I was able to go to a Movie night held by our Relief Society on Friday night. We all came in our Pajama's and watched the Emma Smith movie. I really liked some of the advise she gave her daughter. Something made me feel like I should try and remeber. I can't remember exactly what she said but it was something .... Strength doesn't come all at once. It comes one day at a time....She also made some awesome analogies about the river. I can't exactly remember those either, but I wrote them in my journal and I would suggest the movie to anyone who isn't having the best time in their life.

It's NOT something that made me think "O-Gee, I know my troubles will never be that hard."
I kept thinking there will be a light at the end of the tunnel, and I left feeling -- if she can go through all of that on her faith than I must be able to get through this if i know I can!!!

I appreciate anyone who came and supported us today, near and far! We love you. Thanks!!!

Just a little Update...

So here are some awesome things that are happening! I stood up for myself at Dress Barn. I just can't work for a store manager who, has no experience in management, hired three of her friends, and I still can't believe that she hired her little sister. (All within two months)
I am now employed at Lane Bryant officially on Monday when I clock in. They hired me on the spot. I am only some seasonal help, cause I think I'll like to see how selling tupperware will work!!! hahaha ...I will be taking a COMPASS test at nine am at EITC tomorrow. Which is the Eastern Idaho Technical College in Idaho Falls. I will be turning that in to ISU as well. I still have to fill out FAFSA paperwork - work in progress. Dan is doing some work on the side for a member of our ward. Just a couple of hours a day, helping remodel a house. I did get an offer on our truck. I am hopefull that it will go through. And D is walking all over the place. A couple of days ago three top teeth came through!!! So hopefully I can get some restand he will take his nas without a fuss!!! hahaha Gotta love him!
