Happy Birthday Jake and Ginny

I am not sure if I can ever fully express how grateful I am that the Lord saw fit to give me Jake. He is my rock and best friend.  Happy Birthday to my forever chips & salsa date. The world is better with him in it. He touches lives for good and strives to be the man the Lord needs him to be. His wife and kids are crazy for him, even though he makes front of us.

Ginny was able to visit the week before her birthday on Spring Break. She and her dad went to their annual birthday movie and we just enjoyed having her around.  While she will not do my annual birthday questionnaire, I know the answer to a few. We feel so fortunate she is in our family. 21 years, 21 years…that’s how long I’ve been a mama. Ginny had the privilege of helping me learn to be a mom and is still teaching me. She’s patient, strong, and loves the Lord. She has always been our obedient one (until she left home) and makes her dad and I proud. Continue to grow Bug and rely on the Savior. We love you and hope your birthday has been wonderful. Here’s to adulting

 

Family time

 The weekend before Ginny's birthday, we went to Paris to see Elijah ordained.  While I enjoyed visiting with my family, I do not feel pretty around my sisters these days.  I feel like I do not belong and am the chubby sister. 

Spring Break

 We are mid-Spring break this week and it has been somewhat relaxing and in other aspects busy.  Jake went the week before to Washington DC with his dad and brothers for about five days and had an enjoyable time.  When they planned the trip, initially he thought it was his Spring Break when he looked on the calendar but did not note it had Aubree's name beside it, which I am good with because that means he is here with me this week. Still no progress on our house. We have Ginny here this week too so we are enjoying that.
