General Conference

Before General Conference started we took Abbey for a walk, she didn't even make it around the block!  This was pretty much how she spent General Conference, except inside, on the couch!
What an Angel!!!!

Relief Society Fun/Anniversary Day

Some of the women from my church decided they'd like to get together once a month and do crafting and visit!  Plus the 17th of March is the official anniversary of the Relief Society!  We combined the two.  We crafted all morning, and a lot of visiting was accomplished, and we had lunch, and a short lesson, and voila!  
Here are some pictures from our day!

This Weather is Unreal

The weather this winter has been fantastic!  We haven't had to dress up super warm, or anything!  Which is something that I absolutely love!  I love a mild winter, but more especially I love an early Spring!  
I love Spring!

Check out those temperatures and the date!

Friday March 16 overnight temperature +7 Celcius
Saturday March 17 high of +17
Sunday high of +25 and low of +13
Monday high of +26 and low of +13  
Absolutely Incredible

Needless to say Abbey and I have been outside going for a lot of walks! This is my absolute favorite time of year, and it is perfect because now that we live in town, we have pavement, so it is dry and we can take the stroller and go!  

This is our yard on March 16

Love is....

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, and a friend doing the 14 posts about love previous to Valentine's I have been inspired to do at least one post about LOVE!!!!!!!!!!

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.

- The Bible : 1 Corinthians 13:4 -

This is one of my favorite scriptures about love! 

This is one of my favorite quotes and describes Raymond to a T!!!!

Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot,
who calls you back when you hang up on him,
who will stay awake just to watch you sleep.
Wait for the boy who kisses your forehead,
who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats,
who holds your hand in front of his friends,
who thinks you're just as pretty without makeup on.
Wait for the one who is constantly reminding you
of how much he cares about you
and how lucky he is to have you.
Wait for the one who turns to his friends and says, "...that's her."


In honor of Valentine's Day, here a few pictures of the great loves in my life!!!!!!!








Only a daughter knows just what you mean,
Couldn't care less if your house isn't clean,
Keeps all your secrets, including your weight---
Only a daughter who's great.
Only a daughter will lend you a shirt,
Help you get moved, share a dessert,
Not say a word unless asked for advice---
Only a daughter who's nice.
Only a daughter will cover your butt,
Stand up for your rights, tell you what's what,
Offer a thoughtful and smart point of view,
Be the one person who keeps coming through,
Someone you just gotta love (and we do!!)
Only a daughter like you.
