I Am A Mormon!!

No I will not shove my beliefs down your throat.
Yes I love each and every one of you! Just as God does!
No I am not perfect!
Yes in God one day I can become perfect.
No I do not drink, smoke, drink coffee, or shop on Sunday.
Yes I do sin differently then you.
No I do not judge, I love!
Yes life is hard we all make mistakes!
Yes I try my best to follow all of Gods commandments.
and Yes I sometimes fail.
No I do not give up,
I will endure to the end!
and Yes I would love if every one was able to find this happiness that I have found in the mormon church.
For I want you to be happy.

I have had a lot on my mind.. and I had my mind made up I would not say anything for I didn't want to say the wrong thing and offend any one.
I just need to get it out and off my chest though.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has been in the news a lot lately for its views on same sex marriage and the women in the priesthood.
No matter any ones choices I do not love any one less!
However, my choices might not be the same choices.
What I believe is right may not be the same.
I am not positive how it will all work out in Heaven, I do have faith that God loves us all and wants the best for us!
The Church I belong to is ran by Jesus Christ and God himself. They give us commandments to follow because that is what is best for us to be able to be happiest and able to get through our trials.
Not to limit us and make anything harder.
I will follow the Prophet of the church and I will follow God.
I have faith in love and peace.
I feel the most love and peace on Sundays taking the sacrament, on a Saturday at the temple, serving Gods children, and in the lords work.
That is what makes me feel safe, comforted, loved, and serenity.
I know that I feel the Holy Spirit in my heart and soul.
Tears of joy are poof of that.
Hymns sooth me and sing out my testimony.
For I love the Savior with all my heart and want to become Christ like!

Yes I am a Mormon, a Latter Day Saint of the Church of Jesus Christ.
and Yes I believe it with all my heart!

I hate when the church is attacked and when the members lash back out. Breaks my heart. For we just really need love in the world and lots of it.

(I know this probably was my random thought of testimony but I needed it off my chest)

I love you!!

5/30/2013-2014

 To Celebrate our One Year we went on a Cruise from Miami, Florida to Key West and Cozumel, Mexico! 

It was Brents first Cruise and we enjoyed ourselves a lot! 

We got to see the Southern most point of the US in Key West! What a super cool place we will for sure be going back there!

In Cozumel we got to see Mayan ruins that was super neat to hear the stories of them! We saw the poverty there and experienced how Mexico is. 

On the ship we of course had to eat a lot of food and try new things! We danced a lot! We love dancing! We met new friends! We went to the activities and shows! 

We Laughed and had a really good time! 

Back in Miami we got to stay a couple more nights so first off we went to the Everglades and saw lots of gators that was so neat! We took a speed boat tour as the gators swam next to us! Best of all there was turtles too! Brent got to hold a baby alligator! This was the day of our anniversary.

When we got back we went to rent a car and we got a cute black VW bug! That was fun to drive around and Brent let me drive in the Miami traffic and the heat was playing... it was crazy! 

We went and spent most of the time in South Beach. The ocean was sooo warm! 

I love to fly and travel and see all that I can in the short time I am at a place too much fun! 

For the first anniversary you are suppose to give paper as the gift. So Brent got me a book by my favorite author The Four Doors by Richard Paul Evans and I gave him Following Christ the 2nd book in one that he had been reading and enjoying. 

We brought a piece of our wedding cake with us on the plane to eat a little on our anniversary so we ate it and it was good! Banana mmmm! 

This Trip was only our first for many anniversary trips to come!! 

For the next year to come our goals are:

Brent and I to work our way more into our Degrees and finish two more semesters. To meet Brents brother when he comes home from his mission. Many temple trips. And most importantly enjoy each others love for that always is growing and I couldn't l've some one more! He is my best friend and marrying him was the best things I have ever done!
