Two new books today. Don't know which one I'm more excited to read!

16 years

16 years ago today Lynn and I were sealed for all eternity in the Salt Lake Temple. My great-uncle is Russel M. Nelson of the quorum of the twelve and he was able to marry us. What a special opportunity that was for us. Well, right before we went into the sealing room, Uncle Russel introduced us to Elder Packer, who then turns to Lynn and says "You know, it's not too late to change your mind". I'm sure he was just trying to be funny, but I was stunned. I think my jaw dropped and I totally wondered if this was divine inspiration stepping in to prevent this from happening. (Lynn said that I gave him a dirty look, that wasn't my intention, I was just surprised). Despite that moment, I'm SO glad that we went ahead and got married. We are in more love today than that day. I'm so grateful for a guy who loves me craziness, flaws and all. He is a wonderful provider, husband, friend, father. Here's to many more years of craziness, love, laughter, the good and the bad.
Grow old with me the best is yet to be!

Caribbean Cruise 2010

Lynn and I were able to go with some friends on a Caribbean Cruise. We had a wonderful time. It was so nice to reconnect with friends and each other, getting some sun and just relaxing! In the Grand Cayman we were able to spend some time with some sting rays. It was kinda fun, mostly I just enjoyed watching everyone else. After being with the rays we went to another area and did some snorkeling. One of our guides kept diving down to the bottom and bringing up these huge conch shells. As we headed back to land he cleaned out the shells and showed us all what was in them. Those creatures are gross and big. He let everyone have a taste of some part of it, and I went along with it and as soon as I bit down I wish I hadn't. It was nasty! In Roatan we did the zip-line. One of our friends was very unsure of the whole thing and he did Great! It was really fun and the island is SO pretty. In Cozumel we went on a tour of the island and made a few stops to look at the scenery. We then went to check out the Mayan ruins. The boat got into some rough waves that night and lets just say Lynn and I both had a rough night. The final stop was the Princess Cays. It was a wonderful day. We got to soak up the sun and just relax. What a great time we had with our friends reconnecting and making new memories. We are so grateful for family that helped with the kids, we couldn't do these trips without them.
