"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"

humm.... goals!?

New year means new goals right?! I don't think I've ever made it past January with the goals I set so I guess my first goal will be...
*FOLLOW THROUGH ON NEW YEAR GOALS!
*DAILY SCRIPTURE STUDY WITH THE HUBS!
*ATTEND THE TEMPLE 2 TIMES A MONTH!
(it should be more since we only live 20 miles from it)
*COMPLETE MY 19 CREDIT SEMESTER WITH A'S AND B'S!
(it will be tough after not being in school for almost 5 years)
*BE A BETTER SISTER/DAUGHTER/FRIEND/EMPLOYEE
*TRACKING OUR FINANCES DAILY
and i would really like to
*LOSE WEIGHT & CHANGE LAZY HABITS
MOST IMPORTANTLY
**LOVE MY HUSBAND MORE AND MORE EVERYDAY AND BE THE BEST WIFE I CAN BE FOR HIM :)**
I am so excited for 2010. I feel like its going to be a great year! We are going to be so busy both being in school full time and working as much as we can to pay those things they call "bills!" We have been so blessed the past two years and we are so grateful for all of our family and friends who have been the best support system we could ask for. Last year went by so fast I can't even believe it! I hope this year I can make time for the things that matter most in life, and I really hope I can spend more time learning about the Savior and devoting more of my time becoming closer to his plan for us.

So we joined in the countdown 7..6..5..4..3..2..1 HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Then we played around all day in St. George.. we of coarse had to go out for Thai and Sushi.. followed by the Orange Peel. Family Tradition! I LOVE having my family at my house. We have so much fun!
