Spiritually Fed

I love Conference weekend. Even though it feels like I can't get a thing done on Conference weekend, I love to be spiritually fed by our leaders. The talks are wonderful but I think one of the small things I look forward to are the little moments the Apostles talk about their wives or children. It was my favorite when President Monson started talking about his sweetie. It makes me wonder what me and Ty will be like and what we'll have gone through together when we're old.

We're doing great over here in the basement! Brynlee just keeps growing. Everyday her personality comes out more and more. Nobody can decide who she looks like still. Within the last month and a half she has cut two teeth, sits up, rolls over and can kind of get her legs underneath her, it's the beginnings of her mobile stage. I painted her finger nails for the first time today! She is such a sweet baby. The older she gets the more cuddly she is. She for sure has daddy wrapped around her finger. He thinks she is never going to get married... you wouldn't think so but I bet Ty will scare away a couple of her boyfriends.

Anyways, massage school is awesome. I need to practice on a variety of people so if you would like to be a guinea pig for me, give me a call. It's a great feeling to know that I will be doing something I love and helping people at the same time. I'm learning so much and I hope to help educate others as well. I have started a new blog for my anatomy homework that I will try to post cool facts on when I learn them so if you're interested...

I want to spill my heart this Easter weekend in thanks to my Savior!
*He gave his life for me so that I can be perfected through him. There would be no way I would be able to make it to eternity with my sweet family without the love my Savior has for me. As I strive to be a better person I know he is proud of me. When I make mistakes I know he empathizes with me. He is always there encouraging me and cheering me on. My Savior and Heavenly Father know me and my heart and because of that I will never be alone. Even in those small moments when I feel alone in some of the things I feel, I have to stop myself and remember that my Savior knows EXACTLY how I am feeling. I know he was crucified and that he was resurrected! He lives!

She loved the swing! And it was so warm outside we couldn't resist taking her outside for some fun!
The MLS Cup came to Ty's work. I was pretty jealous. So cool!
Precious little girl!
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Ty surprised me with an early birthday present and took me to ESA to see Jason Aldean in concert. It was such a good concert and interestingly enough it was the first concert we had ever been to together! Love him!
This was the first time she sat through her whole Baby Einstein movie without falling over!

Brynlee is such a cutie! She's gotten so big since you moved away! I'm so sorry I couldn't visit with you when you came to visit--we were short on Primary teachers and we were left with quite a predicament!

Oh, and thank you for sharing your testimony in this post. It was lovely and it is an important thing to always remember.

Bree you are a great example. I loved this post and I too feel spiritually fed. I am just patiently waiting for my Ensign to arrive to place on my nightstand to continue to study the words our leaders have spoken to us.
