do i stay or do i go~

-this was the big question-
ok so this weekend we planned on visiting my parents and doing some shopping for our newest little one. we had planned on staying over friday night and heading home on saturday. that was not the case. during dinner on saturday, my step dad said that he did not think we should leave because the road conditions were horrible according to the DOT. so garran and i talked about it and decided to stay an extra night. boy am i glad we did. on the first highway that we had to take to get home, we are usually on it for about an hour, we saw over 40 cars in the ditch. we could not believe it, but this is what we saw over and over again.

so by the time we got back to our house, we were super grateful and happy to be home. i tried to show how excited we were in our little photo collage!

don't you just love garrans goofy smile. i don't think he ever takes just a normal picture=)

I love the saying "the best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother". My husband does an amazing job of that. I am truly married to my best friend. We laugh often and try to see the best in every situation, or at least find the humor in it. We have four beautiful children. Cullan (7) Kael (6) Briea (3) and Ayla (2). We are currently living in Illinois while Garran attends Grad School. He is a talented print maker and is enjoying his time here. He has a website if you are interested. www.garrangillespie.com Right now we are living every day to the fullest and trying to have as much fun as possible along the way!!

This explains why I blog so much RIGHT?

“Your journal is your autobiography, so it should be kept carefully. You are unique, and there may be incidents in your experience that are more noble and praiseworthy in their way than those recorded in any other life. …
“What could you do better for your children and your children’s children than to record the story of your life, your triumphs over adversity, your recovery after a fall, your progress when all seemed black, your rejoicing when you had finally achieved?”
Elder Spencer W Kimball!

I need to read this every morning!

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It all works out in the end. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us. If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."

-President Gordon B. Hinckley
