The Cutest Hubby

I know that everybody that is married would argue with me saying that their husband is cuter or better than me but I just want to at least put Tony in the spotlight for a couple of minutes. Today Tony called me on the phone because I told him we were going to have a nice dinner because I am done with everything for class except my state tests and my national test. He was so proud and he shared how proud he was for me. He makes me feel so special. Every morning he makes sure he greets me with a cute thing like good morning beautiful or he compliments how lucky he feels to have me in his life. Again he makes me feel special. Every little thing he does I know it's because he loves me. After I burned my hand he made sure that I sat around and didn't do anything, while he did everything. Can you say spoiled? Although it's hard to watch him do the wife duties. The dishes have started to build up because I can't have any part of my right hand under hot water and he called me today and said that when he came home there should be no dishes done because he was going to come home and do them. He is so adorable. There is an endless amount of things he does that makes me fall more in love with him everyday. I am so grateful for everything he does for our family.

Paradigm Shift

Today I was in the car with my mother in law and my brother in law and they were talking about how we see people in our eyes. Not that long ago I realized that every time I watch somebody or talk to somebody I have something mean to say about it. I realized that I was the one who had the real problem because I was judging. Later during the day I read some scripture. They are: 3 Nephi 14:2 -- For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And also 1 Samuel 16:7 -- But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart. If you think about it what we judge about people we will get to be judged on the same thing. Would you like to be judged on something small -- I wouldn't. The Lord doesn't judge us and isn't the goal to be more Christ-Like? At the beginning of the year Tony and I decided to make family goals and one of the goals is that we would treats others how we want to be treated and that we would always find the good in everybody around us. My hope that is that everybody will take the challenge to try and be kind to those around you and to become more Christ-Like and not judge those. Just try and start be finding something nice to say to those around you even if it's in your mind. Like if you see a girl that looks like she may be struggling to her you could would you like some help or Gee! I wish I had the will to keep pushing on like she is doing, or it could be as simple as wow she did a good job on her makeup or she is pretty! When you start with the simple you begin to start getting in the habit of being nice to those around you.

My burn

On Sunday we had my family over for dinner and my mom and I were finishing up dinner when I reached over and grabbed a stainless steel pan that had just come out of the oven. I burned my whole complete hand. They are all 2nd degree burns. It kind of sucks because I am right hand dominant and I now have to use my left hand. oh well everybody has trials. This one is mine. It's kind of interesting because I have learned how to do lots with my left hand and now I get waited on like crazy -- shhh....we won't tell Tony I LOVE being waited on!

I know, I know

Wow! I know I keep saying that I am going to keep up with my blog and I know I am not doing such a great job. Since my last post we have gotten rid of our internet so it isn't really easy to post things. I will just make a quick update and hopefully I will do a much better job at keeping up with my blog. And also maybe putting up recent pictures. Lets see here. Since the last time I blogged, Tony's brother has come home from a mission which is really awesome. I have gotten a lot further and school and I am almost done and ready to work in the medical field. I have gotten a job which has its challenges most days but is really fun and I love what I do. Oh and I got in my first fender bender. I guess that's all that is pretty much new. Again, hopefully I will keep my blog more updated.

Anniversary

Tony and I just barely celebrated our one year anniversary. We had a fantastic time. We celebrated most of our special day on Saturday instead of Sunday. In the morning Tony told me he had a church meeting to go go and I believed him because he has been to meetings every other week. Instead he left me in bed sleeping, went to the store and got flowers, a lovely vase, and a card. Once I woke up we got showers then we decided to go by in n' out and get some burgers and fries, and take them down to Springville to have breakfast with my family. Once we were done visiting all of our family down there we came back home and got all ready for the night. Tony took me to Sears and we got our pictures taken, and then we went to Applebee's and had a fabulous dinner. Then we came home and watched a movie together and then fell asleep.
On Sunday I got a little sick so we missed church, but as the day went on I felt better. For dinner I made lasagna, breadsticks, a salad, and a cake. Then we watched another movie.
I loved our anniversary. It is so wonderful to know that through all the bumps in the road we are able to stand side by side and accomplish things together. I love Tony with all my heart.

Day 8 - Short Term goals for this month and why

My short term goals for this month is to complete my whole workbook for my class, get the whole entire house how I want it, put up a Christmas tree and Christmas decorations, study for all my tests, finish up all my undone projects. The reason I want to finish my whole workbook is so I can get through my class faster so hopefully I will be able to get a job and then I will be out of class full of immature high school students with some immature adults. I would like to get the whole entire house clean and organized so it will finally be done and it will feel like home. I want to put up a Christmas tree because I am way excited to get to decorate one and I just love the season and all the decorations will help me feel more into the Christmas spirit. I want to study for all my tests so I can pass them all on the first round and so I can again get out of a class and away from all the immature people. I want to finish all my unfinished projects because then I will feel accomplished and I won't have projects sitting out everywhere.
