Date night!

We got to go out to a movie on Saturday! It was really fun...we went to Value Villiage before and found some great deals and then watched the movie and of course ate snacks!

We went to see "Life as we know it" it was a REALLY good movie...it is about two people who have mutual friends and their friends die so they are left with the baby...really a good movie, a romantic comedy, but a tear jerker at times!

Great life

Sometimes I get bogged down in the depression of infertility....I am so impatient...I have a hard time waiting to be chosen for adoption....I can't help but dwell of the fact that I STILL do not have children and I am not a mother....That desire is not going to go away, however I need to remember that besides that "minor detail" I have a Great Life! I am lucky to have a Wonderful Husband who loves me and who is committed to our Eternal Marriage. He has a Great Job that he loves and is stable! I am lucky enough to be a Stay at home---wife! We have a Large Home that we are fortunate enough to be able to share with the missionaries. We have the Gospel in our life that acts as a compass and beacon and gives us purpose. We have many great Friends that help us to learn and grow. We have Two AMAZINGLY Supportive Families who help us in our time of need and a a great source of joy to us. We have a bouncy and happy Puppy who we love very much! Our children will come to us in the Lord's time....and when they do we will be ready!

Cart before the horse...

So I admit it, I am deffintaly a cart before the horse kind of person... I always pictured myself having lots of kids and driving a mini-van...well the kids part hasent happened yet, but we did get the mini-van!!!
We found a great deal on craigslist and it was too good to pass up- So we are selling out little Dodge Neon and trading up for a bigger car! We know we will need the room-eventualy!

Update: So we were contacted about three weeks ago and asked in we would be willing to take a group of 4 siblings- we were so excited!! Unfortunatly they choose another family, this is devistating, however we know that must be heavenly father's plan for them.
ALSO...before we found out about these children we were planing on trying IVF, however after much prayer, thought, and crying we have decided to hold off and put our faith in God and hope that he is preparing our children for us!
Wish us luck!
