Life is Good

So i am really sick of seeing that ugly picture of me so i am finally updating.
Life is going good. Me and Brandon are in the process of buying a very cute old home in Centerfield, it is located right next to Gunnison. I CANNOT wait to have my own space to decorate and spread out in. But, i am ever so thankful that we have been able to live in Grandma Crisps home for this long. It has made it possible for us to save a lot of money. I will post pictures of the house a little later.

Next news the baby is growing just perfectly. I got to have another ultra sound...the first one was a little early, but they had to see how many babies i was pregnant with (my dr. does that for women on fertility pills.) Since there was only one which i was thinking i wanted two, until now and i think that seems to expensive. :)
It is so amazing watching the ultra sound. The little critter was holding real still for most of it, but at the very end he/she was dancing all over for us!! It is going to be a country dancing fool....i know it!!
Well that's all for tonight...hope you all are praying for snow, cause i really want it to start!!!

Then Comes Baby in the Baby Carraige!!


Well finally i can announce that me and Brandon are going to have a baby!!!! What a blessing this little one will be. After trying for as long as we did and it finally being here, it almost seems unreal...but we got our babies first picture taken today and saw his(her) little heart just a beating. I am 7 weeks pregnant and my due date is June 22, 2009.
It is so amazing what can happen when you stop to listen to the Spirit and follow His promptings. I got pregnant the very next month after giving up my graduate school. That is something that i really really wanted, but I had to show just how much more i wanted a baby, and once i gave up the fight, i won. Our Heavenly Father is so aware of each of us. He wants the best for us all and we just need to be willing to give ourselves to His will, and everything that is good and right will come our way. I am starting to see that I have to give up one thing to get a better thing.....if you all don't know the story behind me meeting Brandon i will give you the readers digest version.....
I was at BYU-Idaho loving life. I was loving the education i was receiving there as well as the many friends i gained there. But one day--the second day of school in fact. I woke up crying and knew that i was not supposed to be there anymore(i had just left USU a year and a half ago because i felt prompted to go). So i knelt down and prayed about it and received my answer. So after that semester i got my AA from BYU-I and headed back to USU to finish my BS. The next semester i was there, i met the most wonderful man in the world...i had to give up BYU-I to get the man i had always dreamed of marrying.
My testimony is growing in that our Heavenly Father loves us and wants us to succeed. He just wants us to give of ourselves to Him and trust Him to lead and guide us to where He wants us to be.
