Most wonderful time of the year....

I am so excited for this time of year! I just love being with my family and friends and celebrating the true meaning of Christmas. Wayland and I are preparing to go through the Temple here in the next couple months we will FINALLY be through it. I feel a little frustrated, Wayland and I were discussing a couple nights ago the extreme opposition trying to keep us from the Temple and we both know that when something is right there will be opposition but where ever there is opposition comes the blessings if we endure it well. I am so grateful for the Gospel I know that it is true and I know that Christ died so I may have the oppurtunity to live with him for time and all eternity if I will just follow his commandments and most importantly believe in him. I am so grateful for Temples and I am grateful I can be sealed to my Husband and children for time and eternity. I am very grateful for a living Prophet, guiding and leading us back to our Father in Heaven and I know that what he speaks is true and comes from a loving Father and Heaven. I love my Family so much and they are truly everything that makes me smile. I am so happy to go through the Temple with my Husband and start this new chapter in our lives. I would love to express my gratitude to my Ward Family as they are our Family and have just been such a source of strength and warmth. I may have some of the best Sisters in the world Catherine and Annette...yes you :) and my Mother.....I know that I have said this before but, she is the face of sacrfice and  love I know that she is what a Mother should be warm, loving a best friend she is selfless and charitable she does not waste anytime! in fact I know she prays for more. She has tremendous talents and she has never wasted them. When I grow up I want to be just like my Mom :) I love my brothers too ha ha! I would not forget about you....."Kramer" Michael. I hope everyone has a beautiful Christmas.

Yay

Well I am starting genealogy and family history and wow!!! this is a little overwhelming as I have no idea what I am doing. I have a couple friends Robin and Alicia who want to start genealogy as well so I think we will start going to the family history center and have the professionals show us what to do. I am so excited to start this little project and as so excited to go to the Temple. I am so so close:)

Oh man I cannot believe I am still awake! and I wonder why I have dark circles and I am dragging.... I am so crazy. Well I am off to bed for about a half hour and then I shall awake with my son. Thank heavens for energy drinks (not that I drink them often)
Well tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I would love to stress how very grateful I am for my beautiful children and my wonderful Husband. I am very Thankful for my Father in Heaven and my Savior Jesus Christ and all the numerous blessing Heavenly Father has bestowed on our family. My son Dylan who was born just over 6 weeks ago is getting so big so fast! He was born at 7lbs 9oz 18 inches long and he is now over 10 pounds and 20 inches long. He is a little sumo. I could not be happier!
