We went fishing last weeek with KC Jackie Dn and Brenda. Itwasa lot of fun   We didn’t catch as much but had lots of laughs and it was beautiful up there  and felt so good to get outweather was good. 

I thought I knew what love was but that was before all this happened and life was normal and I felt like I could give and receive love normally, but the past few months have been on a whole different level and I’ve felt and learned so many wonderful things. Today is the perfect day to talk about this because it’s tour41st wedding anniversary and I couldn’t be more grateful to have this amazing man for my eternal companion. He has really had to do some hard stuff these last couplemonths, things a husband should never have to do or see, but he still loves me. Plus he has had to do all the things I would normally do too, cooking, cleaning, laundry, Katie helps At , and has helped me so much and is always thinking of others and is taking care of us and doing things for our whole family. She does so much.

I love that every night he prays with and for me and our family. He is surely my strength and hope.  This is a love that is full of sacrifice and service and putting others before yourself and I thank the Lord everyday for this good man man I’ve been blessed with

We had the best time. Camilles family came over Thursday night and we really enjoyed those days at the beach with them. 

He eee wakesup in the middle of the night every night ato see if I need to get into the bathroom then patientlly walks me in there    He fixes me a wonderful breakfast every day and serves me in bed.  He makes sure I have all my medications when I’m supposed to have them.  He takes me to all my appointments and physical therapy. Learns all the exercises so he can help me at home. He. Made this trip to the beach happen because he could see I was getting stir crazy then he really made sure I was comfortable all the time. I really don’t deserve him.  He’s always making me laugh and can pull me out of a downward spiral and pity party and make me feel better I’ve been having a few of those lately where I just feel so sad and want things to be different and he will just wrap me in a big hug and make everything ok.

And my friends have been nothing short of incredible.  A couple of weeks ago Kelley said we are supposed to meet with the bishop tonight at 8 so we go up to the church and  little boy tells us to go into the chapel soo we go in there and Sean m is there with all this recording equipment. We walkmin and the chapel is full of our friends.  Ad shawna and darilyn were upon the stand directing everyone singing the two parts of sisters in Zion and armies of Hellman.  We walked up to the stand and had a complete meltdown when I looked out and saw old friends I hadn’t seen for years. Somehow ,Stacey had contacted all these people. And told them they weregoing to make a video for me.  It sounded so beautiful like I really had a army of angels singing to me. Then after I got a hug from everyone. It was pretty much the most thoughtful gift ever and I could literally draw the strength from them and their well wishes prayers and love.

Camilles family had to leave this morning and my heart is already aching. I was telling her this morning how having them here keeps me going and just makes me so happy. We had such a good time while they were here. I’ll add a few pics from the past few weeks.

 Yesterday was such a good Father’s Day. After church we went up to Solitudeto take some family pictures. Nico  Kate’s friend is so kind and generous to let us come up there and play and to patiently take pictures of our goofy bunch.   The kids had a ball in the pool

Nicole kids are so cute

This s my whole world and greatest blessing. When Camille and. We’re going through some stuff in the garage I came across this stitchers I did years ago  that had all our family o I and said  “a loving family is but an earlier heaven and that is
so true. I cant even begin to expres

s how grateful I am fo them and all they do for me. They are doing ther best to make me comfortable an keep my spirits up. Which is not easy and a full time job. Since this last surgery. I losing he use of my left side was party devistatingand that will make meiosis sure the hardest thing I’ve ever done and I’ve been praying for strength constant. And for my family. I know it really stressing them out too and getting Kelley up several times a night yo go potty is hard for him too. H has seen way too much and is so patient with me. And he stil oks at me like he loves me.

Can’t go another minute without saying how grateful I am for all the blessings in my life.

 Today was such a good day, Oh how I love spending time with the whole family together. This sweet new baby has brought such joy into our home   We can’t get enough of her,

It’s pretty much  non stop laughing which truly is the best medicine!
