......The Simple Things

Last week started for me being down and out.....and ended with my appreciation of many Tender Mercies.

My little friend, Chris, stayed here for 2 nights. I will report that she is doing ok......as ok as you can be when your whole life is turned upside down. But we had some good conversations and I learned more from her that she will ever know. She has been amazing through all of this and has taken the "RIGHT" way to handle a situation like this. {LOVE HER}

This is my pic of the day watching Biggest Loser with her!!!

Friday, my mom called and asked if I wanted to go to Roberts closeout. I told her I would pick her up and she said, proudly....."no I will meet you there!" Yes, she DROVE to Roberts all by herself. Can you believe that!!!!!! It was so fun to hang with her and we went to lunch and to Deseret Book. What a miracle she is.....it is so hard to believe where she was almost 1 year ago.

Friday night, JP and I took my cousin, David to dinner and a movie for his Birthday. I

LOVE David. He is such a blessing in my life. We grew up together, and he calls me several times a week so he can check up on all of us.

We went to see Last Song with Miley Cyrus. It was an ok show, but it was hard for me and JP cause it ended sad........it is difficult for us to watch shows like this.

Saturday we took the Youth to do Baptisms at the Temple. It was incredible to watch these youth. They are so strong. We went to the church to eat muffins and juice..... I love my pic of the day....with Mindy. She is a great YW Pres.The weather has been beautiful and so Jaxon and I have walked around the river several times this week. There is nothing like being able to get out an enjoy some fresh air.

So....the week ended so wonderful when I received a phone call from a dear friend. I have to ok it with her before I can post it....so hopefully soon I will be able to share her good news!
