Temples

Jose and I have a goal. We want to visit all of the temples in California. In doing so, we will take pictures and start a scrapbook of all of our trips, including following visits to the same temple. So far we have gone to Los Angeles, San Diego and Redlands. We hope in the next few months to be able to take a trip to the Sacramento and Oakland Temples. This has been our favorite family goal by far! There is just something about taking time out of our hectic schedules to serve the Lord in His house that puts things into perspective. We both love going to the temple! Along with the photos in the scrapbook, we are each wrting a journal entry about our experience at the temple that day. Our hope is that we can fill multiple scrapbooks throughout our lives so that our children and our children's children will know that we love the temple and serving our Heavenly Father.

Healthy Lifestyle Pledge

Apparently being married makes you fat...Since getting hitched, i have packed on a few pounds. No more! I have made it my goal to start living a healthy lifestyle. Let the world know im doing away with bad habits! I always feel so much better when im working out and eating right. I want to be around a long time so i'm going to start now! You are all my witnesses. I will keep you posted on my progress!

Laundry Day

Our washer broke about a week ago, and because there is no creek out back where I can scrub our clothes on a rock I made my first trip ever to the coin operated laundromat. I was so excited to be able to do 10 loads of laundry at once! One and a half hours and a bunch of quarters later our laundry was washed, dried and ready to take home. (its still sitting on the floor by the way. I couldnt bring myself to put it all away last night.) Im so grateful that Jose was willing to come help me with the laundry after working a 10-hour day. Not have a washing machine makes you appreciate the convience of having one that works. So if in the next week or so if our clothing is not up to par, it means we ran out of quarters.
