As I was driving home from work today, I got to pondering about life and what it has blessed me with. I spent the weekend in Cedar with the whole family. I wouldn't have traded it for anything. Yes, the kids started testing my patience but I love them so much and they make me so happy. Jace got baptized and it was amazing to see him enter into the waters of baptism and then receive the Holy Ghost and become a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He is such an example for his cousins who will follow his footsteps and do the same. I hope and pray that each of them will stay true to the gospel. As I watched him be baptized it brought back a lot of memories of the mission and when I had the chance of sharing the gospel with my friends in Texas. How I hope and pray that each of them will remember that special day and find the true happiness of this life and feel the spirit in their lives. I love the gospel more than anything. And I'm glad I have such an amazing family. It was fun to just relax and enjoy each other.

I have 2 good friends who have lost a loved one this past week, and I think when this happens each of us stand back for a second and contemplate on life and where we are. I can honestly say I'm so grateful for the gospel and the plan of knowing that we can return to live with our Heavenly Father and our Savior Jesus Christ, and that families are Eternal. I hope that my friends can find peace through the spirit of this great knowledge.

I have a friend who I met when I was a vendor working in the Wal-marts. I met him in Mesquite he is an older man around the age of 77. I adopted him as my grandpa since both of mine have passed away. I was talking to him the other day and he was asking the famous question everyone asks if I'm dating or married, and of course the answer is always no. He told me that if I don't get married in this life he will take me on as his second wife in the next. I told him that I would hope that he would want me to experience married life in this life. And he told me something that I will never forget which is something that I need to focus on and not dwell on the fact that I'm not dating or married, which I really am not doing, it would just be nice. Trust me people I like being single there are a lot of perks to it. The biggest is you get a nap whenever you want to. Ok sorry about that side note. Grandpa Tommy told me that instead of thinking about finding a husband, that I need to be worrying about what I am doing in this life that will help me and prepare me to meet my Savior when the time comes. I need to focus on getting myself prepared. (Although if I want the highest degree of glory, I do need that man). So I need to focus more on doing the right things, and we all know them, the sunday school answers. So I'm just going to continue to enjoy life and try harder everyday to do what I'm suppose to so when the time comes, I will be prepared.

On a more lighter note, work is going great. I love my new position, My boss is fabulous, bless her heart I'm in her office more times then I can count, a good workout for me since I have to get up and walk all the time to talk to her. She makes work enjoyable. I don't laugh as much though which means I'm not getting into trouble. Everyone is busy working and doing there own thing that I don't have anyone to really talk to, so I take breaks now and then and go visit my buddies on the other side. I miss them, but I wouldn't trade the move for anything.

I just got called a few weeks ago to be the girls camp director. I'm so excited. yes, I volunteered for the calling. I love girls camp. I'm excited to get to know the girls better and the leaders, I've been to one activity and one sunday school lesson and I really think I'll like them. Just hope they will like me. 

So now that I've wrote a novel. Hope I haven't board anyone to death. Enjoy. Loves to all.
