So, its been about a year since I blogged anything. I cant believe how fast this year has gone by! Boy what a crazy year it has been, lots of good and not so good things happened. Poor Ed lost his job, Kody turned 16 years old (CRAZY!)and started his junior year in high school, we have a new nephew Asher, and in 2 months will have another new niece.
But sadly there has been alot of deaths: friends, friends children. The suicides I think have been the hardest to understand.
But, fortunately, life goes on. Life has been hard but good. This economy has taken a toll on alot of people and friends. Its really comforting to know we have the Lord on our side and great family and friends in our life. We can always count our blessings and know that they outnumber the bad things by a 100! I really believe with all my heart that the Lord has a plan for each one of us and things happen for a reason, good or bad, hopefully we can become stronger from these things. I try to always remember the saying, " I never said it would be easy, I only said it would be worth it!" I feel so blessed to have such an amazing husband who loves me and takes such good care of me, and a wonderful , funny, loving, handsome son who is the center of our world! I am grateful that I have such a great job that I love and can support my family. I am grateful for the gospel in our life and the opportunity to go to church and learn about Christ. I know God lives, and loves us. I know how lucky I am and would not trade my life for anything!
Thank you to all of you who have been a part of my and my families life, we love you and appreciate you!
