Why I love this man....

Valentines day is coming up. There will be no romantic date or night out for us since we are going to visit family (which we are super stoked about) so I thought I would pay tribute to the wonderful man I call my husband. Some super reasons why I love him: 1. He no longer looks onery in pictures. After a decade of pictures, he will now at least pull a funny face. 2. He comes right home from work, gives me a kiss and asks about my day. 3. Tries his hardest to make me happy, going so far as to change the worst diaper he has ever seen, on many occasions. 4. Will fall asleep in my lap on Sunday nights so I can stay up late and watch Masterpiece Theater. 5. Lets me listen to Taylor Swift over and over. 6. Even when I am mad at him, he still tells me he loves me. He is totally not prideful. I am , by the way. And he of course, never gets mad at me. 7. One time after one of our many moves, I was feeling depressed so he put in The Notebook, a movie that he doesn't like but I love, just to make me happy. 8. He has been right by my side through all four labors, encouraging me and loving me the whole time. 9. More than once, he has taken in a beloved tool or gun to pawn off so we could pay our bills. (Hopefully those days are over.) 10. He is a worthy priesthood holder who is always willing and ready to give one of the kids a blessing. 11. He is teaching our boys how to behave like men. 12. And last but not at all least, because he is everything I always wanted and everything I could have never dared hope for!

"Lucky to be in love with my best friend, Lucky to have been where I have been, Lucky to be coming home again,Im lucky we're in love in every way,Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed, Lucky to be coming home someday."

(please replace the word lucky with blessed.)

Awww you are lucky and blessed! It's nice being so in love. I didn't even think love like yours and Trevors existed until I fell in love with your brother! I feel pretty lucky and blessed too! :) And we miss you!

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
