Fun Weekend!

Yesterday Bruce got off work at 3:00 because all the guys met their goals, so we were able to have a little fun!  We did some grocery shopping, and then went for a drive.  Colorado is so pretty right now because it is spring, and so green.  I seriously love it here!  I am anxious to see how the winter is here though.  

Last night Bruce and I went on a fun date night with Shantay and Abe Sellards.  Shantay was one of my best friends from beauty school so I was super excited when I heard they were coming out here for the summer, and they have the cutest little girl named Bristol.  We went to Texas Roadhouse, and then came back to our place and played games and talked til 2 in the morning...  Time sure flies when your having fun!   

We woke up bright and early to go to church, and once we got there we realized it was stake conference because there were no cars in the parking lot, so we decided to drive over to the Temple.  It was pretty, but super small!  It has been such a fun weekend :)

Isn't my husband so hot! :)

Mother's Day

I just want to take a minute and let the world know that I have the two most amazing mother's in the world!  I am so grateful for both of them, and for all the do for Bruce and I.  I hope I can be half the Mom that they are!

My mom has been there for me through the thick and thin.  She has done so much for me in my life, and I will constantly live my life trying to make it up to her.  I would be lost without her, and she truly is my best friend, and biggest support system.  Words cannot describe the love I have for this amazing lady!

My mother in law is amazing!  She has become one of my very best friends, and I hold her so dear to my heart.  I have so much in common with her, and I look forward to hanging out with her... We always have so much fun.  She has been there for Bruce and I anytime we have needed her, and we love her so much!

Women's Conference!



I was lucky enough to be able to go to Women's Conference 2 weeks ago!  I had so much fun with my mom, and sister-in-laws, and we made memories we will cherish forever!  We arrived in Salt Lake on Wednesday and we were able to spend some time at Temple Square.  We ate the the Joseph Smith Memorial Building, and then we all went to the Temple and did a session!  The live session was amazing, and I can't wait to go back with Bruce.  It was my first time being in Utah (if you don't count when Bruce and I drove through) so I was enjoying every minute of it!  After we played around in Salt Lake for a few hours, we drove to Provo and got situated with our dorms!  It was so much fun, and I am so grateful I was able to go!  Stacey was my room mate, and we had lots of late night chats, junk food, and fun adventures!  

I was kinda nervous to go to Women's Conference.  I didn't know how it would be, or if I would like it.. and I can honestly say I am totally looking forward to going again next year.  There were tons of classes to choose from every hour, and it was so nice to be spiritually fed for a few days.  There was one class that completely hit home for me, and it helped me sooo much and it was just what I needed.  Bruce and I have been trying to get pregnant for almost 2 years now, and my sister-in-law and brother have also been trying for 11 years..  It is something that Stacey and I  have in common, and because of it we have become super close.  As we were on the airplane heading to Salt Lake we were reading over all the classes and there was one titled "Unanswered Prayers" and as soon as we read the description we both looked at each other and said this is a must!  As we got to the class, little did we know the lady speaking had also struggled with infertility and so she related her whole talk on infertility and the struggles of it.  I shed so many tears as the lady was talking, and she gave me some many new insights on it... and over all her talk helped me so much!  It made me realize a lot of things...  The main thing I realized is yes, I want a baby more than anything in this world.. It literally consumes my mind every day, but i need to look at all the amazing things I have in my life and be grateful.  The day will come that I will be able to be a mother, and until then I just need to enjoy every minute of my life and be so grateful for what I already have.  I am so grateful I went to Women's Conference, and for the sweet spirit I felt the entire time I was there!
