Trying to stay strong......

So in one week, Our dishwasher was recalled for a part starting fires in many homes....I feel blessed that it never did start on fire for us!!! Our fridge/freezer just stopped cooling and freezing, our toilet upstairs broke, a part in our sprinkler system broke, the fuel pump went out in our van right as we were trying to leave to go to Colorado because Justin's brother's baby boy died. None of my worries can be so bad.....we had a memorable experience going to the Funeral for baby Beckett, it was very hard to see Jed and Ashley have to go through something so incredible hard. I really am grateful for the knowledge I have of the plan of salvation to know that they will get to see there son again, I can't even begin to imagine not being apart of this beautiful gospel. We had a nice time with family. On our way home it ended up taking awhile...we got stuck in traffic because of an accident and then my father inlaw got a hole in his tire! We made it home at 1130pm last night after picking up Tyler he stayed with my mom and dad and Holly and Brad...Thanks you guys for watching him, especially Brad and Holly because Tyler ended up having the 24 hour throw up flew for you guys!! Justin was late for work but they were okay with it thank goodness. Soooooooo today is Monday a new week!!!!! I would like to have a better one! The fridge guy came and checked out our frigde, it is really broken ... I felt so dumb because the guy checked it out and then looked at me and said:"this is not good" I then said oh well things just have'nt been good for us just tell me how much and he said well around $700! I was not to happy, he then said well let me just check something and then he called this lady and she said that she would call us back....so we waited and then she called and he got off the phone and said this is your lucky day lady it is still under warranty! I started to get choked up and tears ran down my face I felt so stupid! I just feel like lately I have been on my last straw but yet today I feel so blessed, the fridge guy left and I just knelt down cried and prayed to my father in heaven and thanked him for just this little but big thing for me in my life. Tyler was up all night but is now doing better and is his cheery self.

So my one and only boy turned 2 yesterday! Time sure has flown by, it feels like it should be his first birthday. He is getting so big and looks like a toddler now. I will have to post pics later, my camera broke and so I had my mother in law take them and so I will post them when I get them, I do have a pic of his cake which turned out cute. He is really into cars lately, you usually will see him with a car in each hand and as many as he can fit into every pocket that he has! Today Justin caught him playing outside with some cars just walking around and then he kissed the car that was in his hand, so ya he really loves cars. He would watch the cars movie 2-3times a day if I would let him. He loves to be outside with chewy, and did I say he loves cars! He is talking alot and is such a joy to our family, I love having him, my baby:)

This year we went to my parents home for christmas eve and spent the night there. My sister Holly and her husband Brad came and spent the night also. It was so nice to be "home" for christmas! I loved having my kids see what it was like for me growing up. My parents did alot of the traditions for them and us. The girls were so excited this year for Santa. They are at a good age! They kept asking all night from like 4pm on when they could go to bed! When it was time for them to go, they went with out any stalling! Wow! I wish Santa came more often! Before they went to bed Justin took them outside to see if they could see Santa in the sky--- they came running in with worried looks on their faces saying that they heard his bells and that they needed to go to bed! We spent the night watching Home alone and eating all of our christmas eve traditional foods. We listened to christmas music and enjoyed each others company. We then went to bed and I was so excited that I ...
