Merry Christmas!

Merrry Christmas!! This christmas was great we had a nice relaxing day. It was really fun to see carter just tear into his gifts. But most of all it was nice to remember what we were truly celebrating the birth of christ. We went to the temple of couple of nights ago and enjoyed the main street decor. I really like the pond. I hope all had a great day.

What in the world....

The other day when it was snowing really really bad. Glenn and I looked out our window to see the snow storm. Well to our surprise we saw this guy cleaning out the hot tub. Yes you read it right. We couldnt believe it so we took a picture of it. You'll laugh when you see it. I mean seriously who in the right mind would do this in the middle of a snow strom. Ha ha

Christmas Cookies!!

The other day i signed up for christmas cookies for our ward party. While i was making them glenn and carter( thanks to glenn ) kept taking my dough, so i told carter when i was done he could have the beater. Here is what he looked like eating it. ha ha


Just in case you wanted to see what they looked like, here is the finished product.

My new favorite Scripture!!

Like i have mentioned we have had a tough year, so Glenn and i have made it a goal to finish the book of mormon together. We have done pretty well reading it every night with or without carter. But the other day i went back and looked up some of the scriptures that we had highlighted, I came accross this one and it just hit me really really hard. I guess it just fits in what is going on in our lives. But here it is 1 Nephi 7:20-21 And it came to pass that they were sorrowful, because of their wickedness, insomuch that they did bow down before me , and did plead with me that i would forgive them of the that they had done against me. And it came to pass that i did frankly forgive them all that they had done, and i did exhort them that they would pray unto the lord their god for forgiveness. And it came to pass that they did so. And after they had done praying unto the lord we did again travel on our journey towards the tent of our father.

Oh Christmas Tree Oh Christmas Tree!!

We went to our storage unit and noticed that our christmas stuff is at the bottom of our pile and wouldnt be able to get to it. We had Two choices either buy another fake tree or buy a real tree. Neither Glenn or I have ever had a real tree so we thought it would be kinda fun to buy a real tree. Everytime we are gone for a couple of hours and come home it is so nice to smell the tree. Love it :)

Thanks

Wow this year i have so much to greatfull for.Well first i have to thank my heavenly father he has really blessed us this year with work, love, true friends, trials that just keep coming and never stopping. GLenn is something i'm also so thankfull for.

When of the days this week i got Carter down for his booster chair and let him run around while i cleaning up his mess. I saw him run by me and i took a second look. What was on his pj's. So i grabbed the camera and went chasing him down. And this is the result.

Feet on the Table???

Like i said Carter thinks that he is the king of the apt. Well the other day we were eating breakfast and we looked over at him. He had his feet on the table just chillin like nothing was wrong with the picture. It was so funny after we got the camera out he started to smile and pose for the camera. He just makes me laugh, mean seariously were does he come up with some of this stuff..

I'm Not a blog Slacker!!!

Well alot has happened in our little family after the last blog i have posted. I fill free to express some of my feelings now that it is out in the open. My parents are getting a DIVORCE, yep you read it right my dad came home one day and just said he wasnt happy in life. But come to find out he had run into an old fling and they have been together every sense. It hurts me to to see my family falling apart like it has. But I know my mom is a strong women who can handle herself when needed. She is very beautiful and has alot going for her, if she could only see that right now and now it will be ok. It has affected alot of people more then i thought it would. Threw all of this the lord has helped me and glenn see why family is so important, and why your answers to prayers are so important to listen too. I know my heavenly father loves me and knows how to talk to me to let us know he cares. I'm so excited to listen to conference to head the advice the lord wants us to hear and take it and use it in our lives right now at these trying times in all our lives. Threw these trails in my life right now i know he loves me. And he wants me to be better. I love him for understanding me. Glenn has also been a great big help with all that is going on, He is my strength, love and support as well, I know that all these trials have made us stronger. I love you Glenn!!! Thanks for all you do. :)
Along with that we moved into an apt complex in West Jordan called Woodgate apt. Carter loves it. He acts like he is king of the apt running from room to room. Very cute. He has alot of teeth in now. Carters personality is just shooting threw the roof. Glenn is keeping busy with work. And I enjoying being home. This is why i did not blog i've been without internet we just got it last night and had alot of things going on..
