Trip to Denver

This last weekend my Mom, Joseph and I made a trip down to Denver. Now this was not a trip for pleasure it was a trip of eye appointments. Joseph had to come down to Denver to see a specialist and my Mom came down to get Lasik surgery. Joseph's appointment went great. I really like the doctor and the feeling of the office. We have to head down again within the next month. Dr. Cohan says his eyes are looking pretty good but he wants to be able to get a really good look at Joseph while Joseph is under. Dr Cohan did say the Jospeh will most likely be wearing glasses in the near future. My Moms surgery went really well. It took a long time to get her back into the surgery but the surgery itself took a few minutes. She is healing really well and feeling great. She kept trying to get me to let her drive on the way home.

Here is my Mom with her protective plastic covers.

The good part of the trip is we got to see my sister Julia, her husband Joey and (as Joseph likes to call him) Baby Cousin Roman.

This one is for Bobbi

Well this last weekend winter arrived. We had a huge snow storm. Jeremiah and I were supposed to go the Temple on Saturday but we were advised against it since the roads were so bad. Friday we received a little bit of snow but when we woke up Saturday morning we had about 6 inches in the backyard and it was still snowing. The kids were so excited they told me over and over again that Christmas had come. So as soon as breakfast was done the kids got all dressed up and headed outside. I couldn't believe how long they lasted out there. They played outside for at least and hour or so. This was perfect for us. Jeremiah, my Mom and I got to work getting the house the rest of the way in order. All the kids came in and we had a nice lunch of Hot Cocoa, Tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches. After a bit of rest the kids were ready to head back outside. It is so nice to have a back yard where I feel safe sending them out by themselves. I know that Bobbi misses the snow since she is in Arizona. I hope you enjoy the pictures Bobbi

Little Princess

I had Isabelle sitting on the counter while I was doing my hair. She was taking care of her baby and singing her baby a little song. I was lucky to get Isabelle to sing it for me again. She is such a little princess. She reminds me of myself when I was younger. She loves pink and dresses but she wants to keep up with the boys and play whatever they are. It is so fun to have a girl.

New addition to the Family

We were so excited about the annoucements of new temples being built. For those who don't know Jeremiah is from Philadelphia. I know this is such a blessing for his family. They have done a lot of work at building up the church in that area. My sister, Carrie, also lives in that area. She was so excited she jumped up and start yelling and crying. Her little kids where a bit startled and worried about what was wrong. When she explained to her kids about a temple being built there her little girl, Taylor, exclaim "oh good now I can get married there." What a sweet spirit. I can't wait until we can make our way out there to see it. Also I hope it is done by next summer in case there is a wedding (wink wink, nudge nudge, say no more).

My Husband

Well last night Jeremiah and I had a fight. I hate fighting with him. Anyways the point is not about the fight. The point is I love him so much. He had to leave town this morning for work and won't be back until tomorrow night. I hate that we left things on not the best of feelings. Let me tell you how much I love my husband. He is amazing.
First of all when my Dad had his stoke Jeremiah was amazing at calming me down and helping me sleep that night. He was very willing to do what ever I wanted in the way of seeing my Dad. He is always so good at knowing what I need and loving me. I love him so much for that
Next when my mother called, to asked if we really meant we would move up to Casper to help out, I barely got the question out of my mouth when Jeremiah answered with a "Let go". He informed me that he knew we would be moving up to Casper right after my Dad had his stroke. I am so thankful for a husband that is intuned with the Spirit. He has been guided in many ways.
I loved Jeremiah very much when we got married over 7 years ago. I never realized I could love him more. When we had William I fell deeper in love with Jeremiah. I was amazed to see what a wonderful father he was. He loved William so much and took such good care of me when I was having a hard time healing. Then when he had Joseph and Michael I fell in love with him again. When Joseph was born Jeremiah was so mezmorized by him the doctor had to bring him back to reality and remind him Michael was about to be born. After they were both cleaned up Jeremaih came walking into the room holding both of them. To quote Jeremiah "I am such a man" Then came his little "baby girl" Isabelle. He is so protective of her. She had him wrapped around her finger the day she was born.
I love the way Jeremiah laughs and smiles at me with a twinkle in his eye. He always tells me how funny I am. He is constenly telling how beautiful I am. He has been very kind to me about my weight gain. And very encouraging when I set a goal. Like when I descided I was going to run the 10k he went out and bought me a IPOD because he knew music really motivated me and helped me get through my run.
I love Jeremiahs long dimples in his cheeks. I love when he in really into what he is talking about his eyebrow goes up (it is pretty sexy). I love that when he leaves town he leaves one of his t-shirts covered in his cologne for me to wear to bed.
I don't often give Jeremiah the credit he deserves. I know it is hard for him to be living with my parents and not having his own space. He has dealt with it really well. He is an amazing man. Wonderful father, very loving husband, he works hard in his callings in the church. I know he has a strong testimony and loves our Heavenly Father. He is very willing to do any job as long as he can take care of our family.
I love you so much Jeremiah. Thank you for putting up with me and loving me through all my faults.
