FIRST OFF………….HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY HANDSOME HUSBAND! While laying in bed last night before going to sleep I wished him a happy birthday since It was a few minutes past midnight and then he asked me how old he was, lol. We’re the same age until the 15th which is when I’ll turn…. GULP…. 25!!!!!!!! Holy smokes. I seriously feel like I should still be 18! Oh well, I’ve learned so much the last few years and am on my way to leading a healthy rest of my life! I don’t really want to go back to 18 because I was overweight and very unhealthy!

Today hasn’t been too eventful! I did a little fun workout on the Wii Active then got a nice bath just to relax. I put on some laundry and was battling some serious fatigue earlier today but I took some excedrin and that has really helped me. I’m really sure that my electrolytes in my body are WHACKED. Brad is going after work to see If he can find some electrolyte mixes to put into water and instead of drinking plain water I’ll just drink the electrolyte mix throughout the day. The kind that I’d like to get is the Zym Berry dissolvable tablets that also has some natural caffine in it so that would give me some pep throughout the day too. I was trying to figure out what else to pack today but haven’t settled on what yet, lol. I packed some of our lighter kitchen containers and some pans into a huge trash bag last night. I guess we better start packing for Georgia tonight or atleast tomorrow since we’re looking to leave to go stay with my Mom Monday!!!!!!!!! SO EXCITED.

FOR THE LORD HAS SAID- “FEAR NOT FOR I AM WITH THEE”
With all the recent happenings in the world such as all the mysterious massive animal deaths with the fish, birds, earthquakes, etc.. quite a few Christian people have been questioning… is this it? We don’t have an exact date but If you believe in God and have read The Bible the things we’ve been going through are signs they talk about in The Bible. I have also been questioning this myself. Years ago I was SO AFRAID OF DEATH and of “the end of the world” but now I am exactly the opposite. I’m at peace with life because I believe in Heavenly Father and KNOW that as long as I am baptized (which happened in 2008), repent of my sins and strive to live a good life then I have nothing to fear. A lot of people fear that they won’t see their family members again but I know that families are forever. Does that mean that so-and-so won’t get a chance cause they weren’t baptized? I believe that EVERYONE gets a chance to accept The Gospel.. even If they don’t accept The Gospel as mortals then they will have a chance in the afterlife. Think of the people who have never heard of Jesus/God – do they not get a chance? Heavenly Father loves us all and as long as we don’t outright reject his teachings and Him then we will have a place in his kingdom.

I will hold steadfast to my faith no matter what is happening around me. In fact, with all these natural disasters.. It only helps me hold that much tighter to my beliefs and my hope and faith. I love talking about The Gospel SO MUCH. My religion has opened so many doors for me on my understanding of my life and purpose as a human being. So thankful to have gained the knowledge I have!

Feeling very peaceful tonight. Katie has also been SO GOOD since she got up from her nap… just playing and babbling. Life is amazing. I can’t wait to see what Heavenly Father has planned for us as a family. Know that God loves you and will not forsake you as long as you believe, repent and strive to live a good life!!!
