great weekend~

this weekend was great. our plans had a few changes here and there, however we figured it all out and we were off.
garrans parents ended up watching the boys for us, which was very nice. don't get me wrong i love my kids, but it was nice to have a quiet weekend. (especially since in a few weeks we will be adding another one to our group)
-meg & mandy-
this weekend we traveled down to nauvoo with our friend mandy.
it was her first time going through. we had such a wonderful time. she is such a great person and i am so happy that she had such a good experience.

-mandy, meg, & garran-

you might not be able to tell by our not so great smiles but it was freezing. garran had left a little a head of mandy and i so that he could get the van. it was so cold, but we still had a great time.

i could not resist taking a few pictures while we were there. it was pretty chilly but i am ok with what i got. i will have to go back this summer and get some more. oh well this is what i got for now!

-brothers-

-Joesph & Hyrum-

-nauvoo temple-

hope everyone else had a great weekend too!

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
