The M Family

My sister asked me to snap some photos of her kiddos while I was in town.  Here are a few...love these kiddos.  So glad I am their Aunt!

Love This

I LOVE conference!  There were so many amazing talks.  Here is the link to one of my favorites!  I love President Eyring.

 

We are reminded by President Eyring, "God is close to us and aware of us and He never hides from his faithful children." 

 I know this to be true.  I am so grateful for a loving Father who watches over us and has a plan for each of us.  We are truly blessed!

Inspired!!

This weekend has been a very personal and uplifting general conference for me.  I felt like some of the talks were just for me.  I am grateful for inspired servants of the Lord who are able to receive revelation for our day.  I am grateful to have the gospel in my life, that helps me keep an eternal perspective.  I have so much hope and faith that Heavenly Father is aware of me, loves me, and has a plan.

I am also so excited for Tucson!  The Saints in Tucson have been waiting a long time for the blessings of a temple in their city.  I know it is going to bless Tucson and open the doors for the gospel to continue to grow.

Domestic

Well we are finally settled into our new home. (thanks to my dad's expert packing skills)  We looked like the people that yard sale and take I-10 back to Mexico with their truck piled high.  My dad pointed out our operation was slightly higher quality because we had tarps covering our stuff!!

Since moving a lot has changed.  I went from working full-time, to staying home most of the time and occasionally subbing.   Daniel teased me and said I was going to have to learn to become domestic.....WHAT??!!  I was slightly offended by the comment but then realized that working full time had affected my domestic development.

Well I am happy to report that less than a month has gone by and I have managed to make my own laundry detergent, stay on schedule with the laundry and cleaning,  have dinner on the table when Daniel gets home every night, and continue to develop my cooking skills.  Tonight Daniel asked, "Where did you buy these beans?"  I was so proud to say "I made them from scratch!!"  I know he was shocked.  In fact he has said multiple times in the past few weeks "Who stole my wife?"

I still have a long way to go in my domestic development but it is coming along :)  Here is a picture of our latest dinner.  (we are eating healthier so notice the amount of green on that plate)
