"A final gospel truth that will contribute to our understanding of and hence the quality of our marriages relates to the degree in which we involve the Savior in our relationships as husbands and wives. As designed by our Heavenly Father, marriage consists of our first entering into a covenant relationship with Christ and then with each other. He and his teachings must be the focal point of our togetherness. As we become more like him and grow closer to him, we will naturally become more loving and grow closer to each other"

Just a few things...

Well.. as much as I loved my grandma couches I couldn't pass up this great deal on these couches which I've wanted for a long time! I don't think I have ever been so happy about a piece of furniture! I'm so lame! We are planning on staying in St. george for a bit longer so I wanted to make our apartment more of a home! I've decided our living room will be dark brown, teal and a deep red! It looks good together I think! (please ignor the mess around the couches!! oops!)Cafe' Microfiber: 2 couches for $500, to me that was a good deal! Affordable furniture behind Cafe Rio is awesome! Everyone should check it out! They have such neat things for great prices! Its all Ashley Home Furniture items..
This is the shelve I got from Target (of coarse!!) the clock came from Heather for my birthday and I made the flower set up for about $8 dollars!
I've been WAITING so long to hang this clock!! I got with at the Dickens Festival! Its darling. The clock actually sets in that box pretty deep and its pretty big! Im such a fan of clocks!

And this I made just with that Mod Podge (however you spell that!) I LOVED making it! They are so simple and fun! And these letters hang just about the tv! Thanks Heather for showing me this great idea!
I seriously LOVE to decorate! I want to paint so bad but since we're in an apartment that isn't an option! I'm wanting to add more into our room next! I've got some really cute paintings that I need to hang and of coarse more Mod Podging! Then I'll work on the spare bedroom, which im thinking about getting rid of the bed in there and making it a craft room! I'M ADDICTED!
Also I wanted to post about a few of the most amazing people I know! Most of you know I work part time for TURN. I have been there for a year and I love it! These people have touched and changed my life! I see life from a new perspective.
We went to the park last weekend and enjoyed the wonderful weather!
Brad and Adam.. best buds!! They like to argue about who is the bigger sports fan! They are both so funny!
And this is our group!! We had so much fun!
