Randy and I's happenings in picture form

extremely cold apartment




I cut my hand because I tripped and glass cut me

Randy had a brief back episode.

I am grateful for

Leaves falling on the ground
The sound of crunching leaves
Eating ice cream with my man
The ability to think and move

I am grateful

I am grateful for beautiful blue skies. I was looking at the sky today and I thought to myself how beautiful it is. There are so many beautiful creations that were given to us by our loving heavenly father.

I am thankful

I am greatful for a loving heavenly father that watches out for Randy and I. He is great.

I am grateful

My family
Randy

What will you be remembered for?

Yesterday at work I helped my boss clean up an area where her husband's tools were. It got me thinking about what will the items that we leave behind tell about us and also what will people remember by what we did. I got thinking how do my priorities match what I would want someone to remember about me. Do I help others as I should? Do I do the things I say that I will? I love moments in life when I can take a moment and look at life in this way. I am not saying that I am perfect, but I want to learn to stand a little taller, rise a little higher, and be a little better as President Hinckley suggests.(1)
Hope ya'll have a good day.
Ruth

Funny moments

The kiddos just loved the fountain at the temple. I love that Kayden is standing and then he is playing in the water.

I Love My Life, I Love My Wife.
Things have been great for me some of the top reasons I Love Being Married are:

• She isn't loosing stuff at my place and then needing them in the middle of the night, it is now just at our place.
• Our Temple attendance has increased.
• Two words Niece and Nephews.
• There is someone to snuggle with at night

More will be added as time goes by.

Funny Happenings of Late

It has been so great being married! We are moving into our new place and having lots of adventures. There have been at least two spiders in our apartment so far. I gave myself a cold shower trying to kill the one spider by putting it down the drain with water. We have enjoyed opening all of the presents from people and buying things that we didn't get that we either wanted or needed. It has been a wonderful time.
