APRIL: here today...gone tommorow

Where has April gone? I am so totally in awe that it is May like . . . soon.

I have been such a bad blogger this month and it is not because I have had a lack of things to post. It has just been sososososososo BUSY!
April brought

Photo shoots for me which I LOVED!
Golf tournament for Corey
Easter
egg hunts and family dinners
Hallis birthday
Halli party
Coreys birthday
Coreys party
Disneyland
Spring break
Basketball games

and all of the church callings, school, and volunteer things that we usually do too.

(and WHERE are all the pics?. . . sorry to busy to post right now)

BECAUSE. . . . now we are off again to Utah for Coreys grandmas funeral. She will be missed, but has lived an amazing life and I am so happy that she gets to be reunited with her sweetie!

Given all the things that are going on in our personal lives and in the world around us right now with the economy and Swine flu and pirates and global warming and...well the list could go on and on. It just seems like my anxiety level has reached an all time high. I know so many feel the same way. But I am comforted by knowing that no matter what happens I am blessed. I have the gospel. Jesus is my savior, and I believe in an after life that is full of Joy! :) I also know that while our time here on earth is precious. It is but a short time compared to eternity,

"If you have not chosen the kingdom of God first, in the end it will not matter what path you have chosen instead"

I fully believe that! I have a testimony that God lives, that Jesus is our savior and died for our sins. I know the Church of Jesus Christ of latter Day Saints is the true church on the earth today and that ALL families can be together forever through temple covenants. I am grateful for that knowledge and for the hope that it gives. Recently Coreys dad has had a stroke and now his grandma is dying, but we are strengthened and comforted and feel that God is with us. I feel the spirit all around me, sometimes I just need to take time to listen and let it into my heart.
Have a wonderful weekend and let God work miracles in your life and listen to the comforter...he is there.

Thanks for your testimony. That was exactly what I needed to hear. Sometimes it is easy to let the stress and craziness of the world get to you but can I just say ditto to your testimony. Thanks for sharing. Have a safe trip.
