Blessings in My Life

I have recently realized how blessed my life truly is. The Lord has blessed
Paul and I so much. I'm so blessed to be married to such a wonderful man who loves the Lord and works hard. What a beautiful world we live in that has been created for us to enjoy, whenever I'm feeling down I look around at the beautiful mountains or the smiling children playing outside so oblivious to the problems of the world and feel so happy and so grateful to the Lord for all I have. I love my life, and I love my family and friends, how blessed I am each and every day. I have also learned Christ is always willing to help you and
waits for you to simply ask. He is our Brother, our Savior, and our Friend!

4th of July FUN!!

We finally got a long weekend for the 4th of July! yay!! So of course we took full advantage of the day. We got a hotel room at Huntington Beach and headed out. It was fun to walk around the little shops at the beach and we both got coconut rings and kettle corn out of the deal! Then we headed down to the beach to pick a good spot to watch the fireworks. They lit the fireworks off the pier and had a perfect seat. Of course they were amazing and so romantic to be laying on the beach with Paul.



Megan, Jarom, Me and Paul waiting for the fireworks!
As you can see we all loved the kettle corn and "sand
hammock" the guys made us.







This guy was amazing, he was riding on an enormous unicycle and juggling at the same time! Paul and Jarom held the unicycle while he climbed on. Acouple times he pretended he was falling and it gave me a mini heart attack. It was soo cool!


On Saturday we went to the beach for a little while but since it wasn't that hot we decided to go check out L.A. We strolled around Rodeo Drive and looked at all the fancy stores. Paul really enjoyed seeing all the expensive cars that people in L.A. drive. The best part of the day was spending it with Paul and having that extra time together. I love him so much and I'm so proud of him!
