10 years later

Okay, so here is my dear husband 10 years later.

Not quite so baby face as he was 10 years ago, but he doesn't really have a beard, just once last year and now he's trying it again this year, but every day he threatens to shave it off. I really like his beard, oddly enough, he looks really good with a beard, however, the beard combined with the mesh-back hat screams "Redneck" and I don't claim him as mine when he is wearing that hat.

Today was such a beautiful day, but did you know that it was daylight savings time change today? I did not, luckily I wasn't the only one late to church today. Primary was fun. We had the jr Primary kids act out some of the Old Testiment prophet stories and then sing the verse from "Follow the Prophet". The senior primary kids, by class, taught the rest of us the song verse of one of the old testiment prophets. It was fun to get them involved and I'm glad that was the plan for today because my lungs are very irritated and trying to sing sent my into coughing fits.

After church I was so tired. Jeremy had stayed home with Tom, who also has a cough, and he had the kitchen all clean and food ready to make dinner - it was such a nice thing to come home to. My throat was sore from coughing, so I indulged and had a large bowl of ice cream for lunch. I don't eat ice cream very often, I prefer cookies for a treat, but that cold, creamy ice cream felt so good on my throat.

I kind of take Sunday as my day off from normal duties of food and kids and Jeremy is really good to indulge me. I dozed on the couch for awhile, it's amazing how much a lung cold takes out of me, and when I came to I saw 2 little naked bums running around the house. Lydia is into taking it all off, at least 10 times a day, so that was normal for her. Becca, however, is usually dressed, although it is in a different outfit about every 2 hours or so, so it was unusual to see her running around naked.

After curry stir fry for dinner, that Jeremy made, our friends, Fenus's and Prescott's were walking by and invited us to join them on a walk. It was such a pleasant evening, and it was so nice to get out of the house. I am so glad we have wonderful friends, and that they live near by. There are at least 6 others student/utah families that live really close by and they are all so wonderful and feel like family which is such a blessing since we live so far away from our family.
