For those who don't know who that is, thats my mother in law who passed away over a year ago. This last friday March 2nd I got the opportunity to go to the Temple and do her work for her.
It was such an amazing experience to be able to do that for her. When I went to do the washing and annointing for her it was so cool when I went the ladies there were so happy and rushed me right in. During it I was crying and one of the ladies said to me while I waited she said "this one means something to you" And I said "yes, its my mother-in-law" and she gave me a hug and started to cry and said "that she could feel that this one was special too!!"
It really was a special oppourtunity and such an honor that I got to do that. Being able to do that for her really taught me what true forgivness is. To truly forgive someone you have to realize that you can't change the past. There was a lot of things that I had been struggling with when I thought of Jan and the past. I don't want to go into detail about it. But being worthy and being able to do her Temple work was my opportunity to really forgive her for the past. I know that the past can't be changed but I now know that her's and mine futures are now changed and changed for the good. And it is so nice to not have the burden of resentment on my shoulders I had towards her anymore. I am so thankful that I had that opportunity to do her work for her and now she can progress. I love you Jan and I miss you too!!!
Speaking of doing work for family members. Dustin and I have started doing family history for his dad's side of the family. And last week while doing it Dustin asked me "do you think they(his ancestors)have really been waiting for me to do this" I told him I really think they have. I'm so excited to do their work for them they have waited long enough til somebody in their family to find them and to go and do their work for them.
So Dustin and I have a lot of work to do but we are excited to do it!!

Valentine's
On pinterest I found a cute idea to do for Valentine's day for Dustin. Each day leading up to Valentine's day I would give Dustin a treat with a cute saying that went along with the treat. So on February 1st I was at work on pinterest ;) writing down all of the treats I needed to buy. Then a couple of minutes later Michelle who I work with comes up and says that she found this cute idea on pinterest. So she tells me and I say "I want to do that too!! I have a list of all the treats I need to buy" Great minds think a like ;) So on our lunch we went to good old Walmart to buy all of our treats!!!
So that night I got home late from work and Dustin was already asleep so I put 2 treats 1 for the 1st and the other for the 2nd, on the bathroom counter for him to get when he woke up. So that next morning when he came to give me a kiss goodbye he says "who did that" ummm I don't know if it was just early or what so I said "I don't know" and he just stands there kind of confused. Um one of the treats was donut holes and the saying was "Donut you know I love you a Hole bunch" So I said to him "who do u think did it crazy" Then I think it sunk in and he realized it was from me and he thanked me and went to work. Crazy kid!!!!
So the next 13 days each night or morning I would put his treats around the house for him to get. I think he liked all the treats he got. And maybe just maybe I like them a little to much too!! LOL
So on Valentine's day I wanted to give him the chocolate candy with the saying "I love you more than Chocolate and that is saying a lot" ;) and give him a shirt or something along with it. But Dustin needs new tires and other stuff for his car so that is his Valentine's, birthday, anniversary, and christmas all wrapped in one because they are so Expensive!!! ;)
So Valentine's day came and don't get me wrong I love my husband but he is really not a romantic ;) So I wasn't expecting anything from him cause I told him I wanted to go to dinner and a movie so I thought that is my present I'm fine with that. But when I got home from work I went into our room to change and I see a paper with my name on it all folded on our bed. He wrote me a letter telling me how much he loves me and stuff. AWWWWW love him!!!!!
So this weekend we are going to go to dinner to MADDOX!!! and then to a movie I'm hoping he will take me to The Vow but we'll see ;)
But I just have to say I love my Valentines!!!! Dustin is such a great husband!! I am so grateful to have him in my life!! I LOVE HIM SO SO SO MUCH!!!! So glad he is MINE!!!!
Hope everybody had a great valentine's!!! Love you all!!!!

Brian Regan 1/20/12
A couple of months ago I found out that Brian Regan was coming to Salt Lake and I have wanted to go to one of his shows but everytime I find out he is coming it is to late and all the tickets are sold out. So this time I found out before they even went on sale. And to let you know me and my friend Jacki have always said the next time he comes we have to go. So when I found out he was coming and the tickets were going on sale I had to tell Jacki and I told my family because they love him too!! So both her family and my family wanted to go so we just decided to go seperate :( But atleast we both got to go to Brian Regan so that was ok for us!! So we just bought our tickets seperate.
That night my sister, parents, and I went to dinner before the show to Macaroni Grill minus Brad and Hilary, Brad couldn't get off work early enough so we were just going to meet them at the show. Dinner was good until the very end of my meal for some reason I took a bite and my chicken alfredo just tasted like tuna fish. Wierd I know!!! So I was done so I just colored on the the table until everyone else was done like a kid ha ha ha. If you ever been the tables have paper on top and the waiter or waitress writes their name with a crayon. So yep I was like 4 and was coloring with the crayons ;)
So we went to the show and while walking to the show from the resturant, I get a text from Jacki asking where the key and garage door opener was for her parents house. (Side note I watched their animals and house sat while they went to Florida). So I knew they were coming to Brian Regan that night too so I said after the show I'll call you and meet u somewhere to give them to you. So we are sitting waiting for the show to start and about 5 minutes before the show starts who walks through the door right where we are sitting. Jacki and her family their seats are right next to us!!! It was so awesome it was truly meant to be that me and Jacki got to watch it together. Kind of weird but AWESOME!!!! His show was awesome!!!! My face and stomach were so sore from laughing so much!!! He is HILARIOUS. If you have never heard him look him up he is so funny and his jokes are clean so that is a plus.
Heres a little video from one of his shows I found on youtube
It was such a good night to spend with my family and also got to watch him with my good friend Jacki!!!! It was so meant to be for us to watch him together ha ha ha!!!!

Christmas 2011
Well it is almost February and I'm just posting about Christmas ;) But this past christmas was such a fun one. My sister Lisa and her family got to come from Oklahoma and we all got to spend christmas together!!! Also I got to meet my nephew Ryan for the first time!! Well the night before Lisa and her family flew in we celebrated christmas with Dustin's family. Since Dustin's mom passed we decided to keep her tradition of having smoked turkey and other yummies she always made for christmas. This was the second year we have done it and had Dustin's grandparents, dad, sister, and her kids over for dinner. It was a little stressful because I was making everything myself and I didn't want to mess anything up specially because these were Jan's recipes. But I was lucky enough that everything turned out good, I wouldn't say perfect because Jan wasn't here and she wasn't the one making it :( sure miss her and her good cooking!!!
Dustin, Blake, Brittany, Keenan, and Starr(missing Dakota and Sienna)
So the next day we went and picked the Walkers up from the airport. Dustin and I were the first ones there and we were standing and looking at when there flight was supposed to arrive and I looked down and who do I see..............EMMA WATSON, Herminone Granger from the Harry Potter movies. It was so funny she was walking right towards us and I was like that is Emma Watson and Dustin didn't believe me and she walked into the baggage claim office. So I told Dustin that is her I know it "Don't question me Dustin it was her" LOL!! So he walked over closer while she was in the office and he was comes back smiling agreeing that it was her!! (little side note Dustin is in love with her, LOL) So I get out my camera ready to take a picture of her so I am pretty much a stalker now waiting for her to turn around so I can take a picture. Then she turns around and I freaking freeze!!!!!! I know I'm an idiot but you could tell she was upset and I didn't want to be that stupid fan. So I waited til my mom and dad got there and maybe they can be brave and take a picture or talk to her. But you can tell she is upset. So we stay back and watch her she walks to the bathroom. And guess who follows Dustin!!!! So I think he is so going to talk to her when she comes out of the bathroom!!! So Dustin comes back and the first thing I ask is "Did u talk to her??" He says no I talked to the bodyguard. He says he asked the bodyguard "Are u with Emma Watson" and the body guard says yes and Dustin's says my wife would love a picture with her do you think that she will do it. He says any other day she would do it but Delta has lost her baggage and she is really upset. So 2nd fail for us!!!!! We suck!!!
But back to picking Lisa and her family up ;) they finally arrived and I got to meet my cute nephew Ryan for the first time!!! Oh I hate that they live so far away!!!
My cute nephew Ryan
So the Walkers were there for the next 10 days!! It was so much fun having all of my family together and specially for Christmas. Before Christmas came the sunday before we had Ryan's blessing oh he was such a handsome boy dressed in white. I'm so sad I don't have any pics of him because I was in charge of Lisa's camera to take pics ;) But he sure was cute!! Then my sister Lisa went through the temple and got her endowments out and again I was in charge of Lisa's camera again it was way to cold to take more pics with mine that night. But I am so happy that she chose to go through the temple!! Next couple of days after that we just hung out and played games and ate way way way to much food!!!! Christmas eve day we made a bunch of cookies for us and santa ;) Oh really think I gained like 10 pounds those days I was at my parents we just had way to much yummy food and could resist!!
Christmas day was awesome!!!! Like I said before it was so nice to have everyone there all together. All I can say is it is good to be a grandchild of my parents LOL!! SPOILED!!! I'm a little jealous cause I was the baby and I was always spoiled but not anymore its good to be a grandkid jk ha ha ha.
The day after christmas we went sledding there wasn't much snow but there was a dirt road that was covered with snow. So my dad would drive us up it in his truck and we would slide down and keep doing it over and over. Lisa and I went together the first time and all I can say is HILARIOUS!!!!! Ok this road was pretty steep and you go pretty fast so we were kind of scared thinking because we are bigger than the kids and would go really fast and we didn't want to crash! So we went and we were going so so so slow down the mountain and all the kids were passing us and we couldn't stop laughing because we were going so slow!!! We even came to a stop BAHAHA!!! Oh it was so funny!!! We rocked!!! So after we came down this old man with a truck full of old wooden sleds asked if we wanted to borrow them cause we only had one sled that worked. So all I can say is these sleds were so freaking scary!!! you would lay down face first and ride it down and you really had no control of them and you are going head first!! But we had so much fun on them we might be a little crazy for riding them but it was so fun!!
That night we had to say goodbye to the Walkers cause they were leaving the next day and Dustin and I had to work :...( Oh I hate that they live so far away!! It really sucks not going to lie!!! Miss them so much.
Here are some pics of when they were here I didn't take that many pics :(
Ryan by the tree

Santa left his magic footprints ;)
Dustin and I with our presents

It was so nice to get to spend Christmas all together. That was the best present ever to be all together! I love my family so much both mine and Dustin's it is so nice to be able to spend time together even though I wish we could do it more. Family really is everything!! Can't wait til next time we get to be all together again.

1 Year
Today November 26 marks Dustin and mines 1 year anniversary of going through the Temple and being sealed together!! It was black friday that day but for us it was "white friday" :) It was the most amazing experience in my life!! I am so grateful that Dustin and I had changed our lives for the good and we were able to go through the Temple together.
Whenever I think back to that day a year ago I always think or say that it was the greatest day ever and also the worst day ever. You see the night before we went through the Temple Dustin got a phone call from his grandma saying that they had taken his mom to the hospital that she was unconcious. Well this hadn't been the first time so we thought that she would get the medicine to clear the acid out of her and that she would get better. So Dustin told me and we prayed and we felt that we would still stay up at my parents house and go through the Temple and then see how she was after. So that day after we went through the Temple when we were eating lunch with our friends and our family Dustin got a phone call from his Aunt saying that his mom wasn't doing better and that there was nothing the doctors could do and that she wasn't going to make it and they didn't know how much longer she was going to live. (See how it was the best day ever to the worst day ever) So we had to hurry and leave and go to the hospital to see his mom. I remember that day when we were there at the hospital I was alone with Jan and I was talking to her about me and Dustin going through the Temple that morning and I said how much I loved her son and that I promised that I would take care of him. Even though she was kind of out of it I know that she heard me and was happy for us. Also when Dustin and I were alone with her that day Dustin was talking to her about us going through the Temple and asked her if she wanted us to to her temple work for her she said "yes" So I can't wait to be able to do her work for her.
I can't believe it has been a year since we went through the Temple. I love it so much I love that Dustin and I are sealed and someday when we have a family knowing that our family will be together forever makes me so happy. Even though that day we found out the worst news about Dustin's mom it was such a blessing for us to have the gospel and go through the Temple and to know the plan of salvation that we will be able to see her again someday. I love Dustin so much and I love that we are going to go to the Temple tonight and we are going to start a tradition of going to the Temple on our anniversary each year!! ;)

Thankful
Well its that time of the year and I just wanted to post the things that I'm thankful for I wanted to do the thankful day thing where each day you say what you are thankful for.....but as you see it is the 20th and I didn't do that ha ha ha
What I'm thankful.........
First one that I have to say is the Gospel everything about the Church. Its so so so amazing!!! Words really can't describe how I feel about it. I fell away from the Church awhile ago and I know how if feels to not have the gospel and the Holy Ghost in your life. It is so amazing and I am so grateful for it. I know Dustin and I wouldn't be where we are in our lives if it wasn't for the Gospel. We probably wouldn't even be together. I am so grateful for Jesus Christ and the power of repentance. I could go on an on but most of all I'm so thankful for my loving Heavenly Father who I know for a fact he listens and answers prayers!!!
Thankful for my husband Dustin!! I am so thankful for him he is awesome!! He makes me so HAPPY!! I am so thankful that he changed is life around with me and we are now married and sealed in the Temple. I love that he is a worthy priesthood holder. I love how hard he works in his job to be the provider for our family. I can't wait to start a family with him and am so grateful that our family will be together forever!!
Thankful for my amazing family!!! I am so grateful and lucky for having them in my life!! My parents are amazing they have always been there for me from supporting me in all my sports growing up to being such amazing examples to me on how to live your life and be faithful people. I am so grateful for my amazing and awesome siblings Aubrey, Lisa and Brad!!! They are amazing even though they picked on my so much growing up ha ha I love them and they are such good examples to me!!! Thankful for my extended family too and all that they do for Dustin and I!!
Thankful for my cute nieces and nephews!! ;) Oh I just love them all. Its amazing how much love I have for them and it shows just a glimpse of how much love I will have for my kids!!
Thankful for my friends. My friends are awesome!! I really have some amazing friends in my life that have been there for a long time and some that have been there shortly ;) You know who you are!!!
Thankful for our jobs. I know you may think why is she putting this on here she complains a lot about going to work he he he. But I am really thankful that Dustin and I have jobs and that we can do the things we want to because we have money for them. So many people don't have jobs and for those of us that do we are really lucky. We are so lucky to be able to afford the simple things in life like food, heat, water and etc...
Thankful for the Armed Forces. The service men and women who willing serve this country so we can be free to do the things we want. I just have to say I was thankful for them before but now to have my brother in law Justin in my family who is in the Air Force it makes me so much more grateful and proud to be an American. God bless our Troops!!!
Well those are the people and things that I am truly thankful for. There is so much more I'm thankful for but those are the most important to me!! I love this time of season. It always bugs me that stores and people skip over Thanksgiving because of Christmas. I always wonder don't they have anything they are thankful for?? Well I love Thanksgiving not just because of the yummy food(that is a big part) ha ha ha!! But I love spending time with family and loved ones!! I love the holiday seasons most of all because of being with family. Well I hope everyone has Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

Well those are the people and things that I am truly thankful for. There is so much more I'm thankful for but those are the most important to me!! I love this time of season. It always bugs me that stores and people skip over Thanksgiving because of Christmas. I always wonder don't they have anything they are thankful for?? Well I love Thanksgiving not just because of the yummy food(that is a big part) ha ha ha!! But I love spending time with family and loved ones!! I love the holiday seasons most of all because of being with family. Well I hope everyone has Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

Two Year Anniversary!!
Well on November 7th Dustin and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary!! I really can't believe it has been 2 years already it really seems like yesterday we were getting married.
Well we didn't really do anything on our official anniversary I went to work for a couple of hours and then picked up some yummy food from Golden Dynasty and finished unpacking. Yep Dustin and I are finally out of the grandparents basement!!! It is so nice to be on our own again!!! We really wanted to stay there and pay more stuff off and then move into a house but some stuff has happened the past couple of months and it was just time for us to move. I really was going crazy there!!! Don't get me wrong I am really grateful that the grandparents let us move there it really helped us get back onto our feet again but it was time ;)I love our little apartment its perfect for us for right now!!
But back to our anniversary we decided to go up to Park City and stay at the Waldorf Astoria hotel!!! All I can say is it was amazing!! The hotel is awesome!! Here are a few pics of our trip ;)

Some pics of our room
Dinner at Bandits Grill and Bar
Walking in the snow around old Main Street
Leaving :(
Our trip was so much fun and I really didn't want to come back ;) My favorite parts were the awesome hotel I know I might sound stupid but it was so amazing I think Dustin favorite part was the valet parking he thought that was so cool LOL!! Dinner was delicious we were looking at all different places to eat and the prices were a little to pricey for us so we finally found Bandits Grill and Bar and it was soooooo good I got the prime rib and Dustin got the pulled pork plater. I highly recommend going there I even tried to get Dustin to go back for lunch ha ha ;) I loved walking around the Old Main street it was just perfect it was night time and snowing and was so romantic!! But my all time favorite part of the whole trip besides being there with my amazing husband Dustin, was we decided since we got the hotel and trip that we would write letters to each other just saying how much we love each other and stuff. I was kind of hesitant of Dustins I was thinking that it would be a paper with "I love you" in it and signed Dustin but he totally caught me off guard and wrote a whole letter and how he feels about me!!! AWWWW I know!! It was perfect I loved it and it totally knocked my letter out of the park(hes says it didn't)
But I just want to say I really LOVE Dustin he is the perfect husband for me!! I can't believe it has been 2 years!!! It really seems like yesterday we got married its funny because I never thought we would get married we dated for 6 years before ha ha!! But it finally happened YAY!! I really love Dustin so much, I love that he works so hard in his job. I love that I'm still head over heels for him he just makes me so happy!! I LOVE that we are married and that specially we are sealed together!! He makes me so happy words really can't describe how much a truly love him!! He is my best friend. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY babe can't wait to celebrate many many more with you!!
