Love Gratitude Day 2

Today I am so grateful that Brian is a worthy priesthood holder. I love that we are able to go to the temple together. I always makes our relationship so much stronger! Plus, I am so grateful that we can be to the temple in 3 minutes.

Love Gratitude Day 1

I was invited to do the Love Gratitude Challenge and I though instead of doing it on Facebook I would do it on my blog:)

I love my husband and he is the best! 

Thanksgiving is fast approaching and that means gratitude is in the air!!! CHALLENGE yourself to send a little note each day of November of love, adoration, and thanks to your spouse. 

Get your LOVE GRATITUDE ON!!!

The month of November is the perfect time to tell your sweetie how much you appreciate, love, adore, respect, enjoy, and appreciate them. This is the perfect excuse to create a habit of gratitude. 

This CHALLENGE starts Nov. 1 through the 30th.

Day 1: I am so grateful for him making dinner! 

He made enchiladas tonight and they were amazing!!!

Just a Rant

Can I just say that I find it completely dumb that we have a dress code for the gym. Yes, I understand that they don't want short shorts or tank tops. I don't have a problem with that but I do have a problem with the fact that I can't wear grey yoga pants. What difference does it make if I wear grey instead of black. I hate that you can't wear the cute yoga pants that are tight on the ankle. Why does that matter? Ugh!!! It is days like this where I wished I would've gone to CSU or somewhere else!!!!

October Goals Reviewed

Attend the temple

(I failed I just became too busy! Plus, I wanted to go with Brian and his recommend was lost in the move. So we were waiting to get his temple recommend. We were just put into a new stake and they were still organizing things.  So it took about a month to get his Stake presidency appointment for a recommend.  Thankfully he got it on Sunday. We are going on Friday though)

October Goals

 *Thank you Nadie for giving me this idea of writing down monthly goals* 

President Monson said, "There is nothing more important than the goal you strive to attain"

After listening to conference I decided that I needed to become a little better and a little kinder. I know that I have several areas that need improving and this is me trying to become a better disciple of Jesus Christ.

As long as I am progressing I will not be digressing.

Making Caramel Apples

 Brian and I decided to make caramel apples as a fun fall activity together<3 p="p">

(Alright, I more so wanted to do it and didn't give Brian much of a choice)

(Just a quick picture of us before we got started)

The apples before they were caramelized. 

Brian stretching the caramel over the apple

 The finished products<3 p="p">

The finished product was way delicious!!!

 Brian on the other hand didn't finish his because there was too much caramel for him.

It was a quick little activity to get us away from doing homework but it was so much fun!
It took like 10 minutes to do it but it was the perfect break!
I love being able to do little things like this with Brian:)
