Big Events!

He finally made it! I am so proud of Adam and all that he has done the last few years in order to raise a family, provide for us, and finish school! He is my hero.







The next event I did not document with pictures because I was such a nervous wreck and didn't even think to have Adam bring a camera, but I ran a half marathon. There were many small obstacles in my training that were huge road blocks mentally and physically. But, I decided that nothing was going to stop me from finishing, and I did. It was a great feeling to cross that finish line, especially to see my family there supporting me. It's indescribable, really.

And, the last big event was that my little baby just keeps growing up! Baylub gave his first talk in Primary today. It is a small accomplishment, but it makes me feel like he is just growing up without me even realizing what's happening.




His talk was on Joseph Smith and the Restoration.

Needless to say, we have had many tears of joy these last few weeks.
