I love to see the Temple!!!

We had the best sacrament meeting on Sunday! The spirit was so strong in the meeting.  Sister Hoopes talked to us about "be still and listen" She told us how todays world is a total rush.  I agree with her completely! She said that even when people go to the temple they are in a hurry with errands to run before and after.  It was so good to be reminded that we need to take the time to do the things that are right.  Take time to say meaningful prayers, take time to read and study our scriptures and words of the prophet, and take the time to go to the house of the Lord and take the time to prepare to go there so we are ready to do the work that needs to be done.  Some little kids sang I love to see the Temple.  It is so amazing that a simple primary song can bring the spirit so strong.  I had tears in my eyes just listening to the words.  I am so grateful that I was able to be married in the Temple and be able to receive the blessings from attending as much as we can. We are so blessed to live so close to a beautiful temple and I do admit that I think we take that for granted sometimes and do need to be better about going more often. I'm glad that we had the opportunity to have that great reminder on Sunday and am going to try to take advantage of being so close to the Temple! 

Terrible Blogger!!!

Wow! Its almost been a year since I last blogged! I am terrible! It has been a fast year and a lot has happened in the last year!  My mom and dad decided to stay home this winter! It has been an AWESOME winter for Idaho! Its been quite warm, and hardly no snow! But to catch you up on the last year, I graduated from Massage Therapy School in December. and have been working for my dad until I am able to find a job. I am actually starting Wednesday at Dr. Mellor's office, he is a chiropractor and I am so excited because that is the direction that I wanted to take my massage career.  Also, we added 2 little girls to the family! Kegan and Whitt had a little girl named Marley.  She is so much fun! Kenz and Andy also had a little girl named Jerzi. She definitely has a good serious face that makes all of us smile!! Her brothers love her so much! Our family doubled in kids this last year! Its so fun to have the little ones around! Also our Sister in law Katie (Justins wife) is pregnant with a little girl! so many babies! Just not any coming our way for awhile!! We love our nieces and nephews! :) We are still living in Teton, we really enjoy it here! The people we rent from had twin boys! We hear them, but it is still the cute little cry! :) Nate is currently laid off, for a little while, he has been helping my dad with whatever he needs. I quite enjoy it cuz I get to see him a lot! ha ha! and to be honest I think my dad will be sad to see him go back to work!! We had a great Holiday Season, its nice to live close to both families so we usually get to see everybody! Also I turned 21!! yahoo! lol, we went to Vegas with my dad to a show 2 days after my birthday and of course got carded! ha ha I had to go get my license and everything! But I was LEGAL!! We are just plugging away and loving life! :) we cant wait for spring so we can start riding and roping outside at my dads! like I said, its been a awesome winter but we still need the frost to leave!! Hopefully I can be better at blogging this year!!
