4 years already!

Well today is our 4 year Anniversary. I can't believe it's been 4 years. Time sure has flown by. We aren't doing anything special today either. In fact, we only saw eachother for 10 minutes this morning and thats all we get today due to work schedules. I was reflecting on the past 4 years and realized that we have only spent ONE anniversay together! and that was because I forced us to take a trip to Portland.

Here are a few things that we have done in the past 4 years:

~Bought a house.

~Remodled numerous things around the house.

~Shawn graduated from School with his BA.

~Shawn started graduate shcool.

~Bought a new car, that has better luck than our old one.

~Trying to start a family.

~Sealed in the Temple.

I'm so excited to spend the rest of eternity with Shawn. I can't wait to see what the near future holds for us!

Shawn, you are my best friend and the love of my life. I don't think I would ever make it without you!

For Time And All Eternity

September 18, 2010 will always be a special for Shawn & I. That was the day that we were sealed to each other for time and all eternity. I can't even explain what an amazing experience it was. We felt joy, peace, and the spirit the whole weekend.

A week leading up to the sealing, I was getting pretty nervous of the un-known. The night before, I slept for maybe 2 hours if that. I have no I idea what I was so worried about. It was not what I thought it was going to be at all. (in a good way)

The only thing that has been hard for me is, that my family has no idea. They don't agree with the LDS religion, so we thought it would be best to leave them out of it. I just wish that I could express how happy I am about it. Hopefully down the road in the future, their hearts will open and I can share this with them.

I'm so happy to know that Shawn & I are now an eternal family, and what joy that brings into our lives and marriage. I didn't that we could never be this strong together.


I'm hooked, I can't wait to go back to the Temple. Hopefully we can get alot of couples together and go on some Temple date nights!

P.S. will be posting some pictures soon!

An Amazing Day!

Yesterday was so amazing. Long, but amazing. It started with an 8:30am meeting with our Stake President for our Temple recommend. Then at 10am I had my Patriarchal Blessing, which was so awesome! Church from 11am-2pm which I spoke for the very first time is sacrement meeting. (Was so nervous, but had a very sprital expirerence). And to top in all off, a fire side at 5pm. I cannot believe how strong the spirit was with me all day. It felt great! I'm so excited to go to the Temple this weekend. I have finally gotten over being nervous about it. I'm excited that I will with Shawn for Eternity. I couldn't picture myself in this life without him. Needless to say, I have a VERY busy week ahead of me. I will keep you all posted on how everything goes :)
