BYU Soapbox

Jake called me and said to HURRY to BYU. Luke would be doing the "soapbox" at BYU at noon after the devotional was over. Luke did such a great job. It was so impressive for me to see him overcome his fear of public speaking. I didn't expect him to speak on a church related topic. It was powerful to hear about service from Luke in a loud/robust voice. In our religion we speak in church in reverent tones. Luke teaching about service on the "soapbox" made me think of the early church missionaries in England teaching in the streets. I loved it, great job Luke.

  1. Wow! I'm sure he did great. I don't remember the "soapbox" Maybe it wasn't invented when I attended BYU. lol

20 Weeks

Today we had the opportunity to go in for our 20 week ultrasound. We are excited to announce that baby #3 is a healthy BOY! We are excited but have to admit we are a bit nervous. Change is hard and after two girls this is definitely a change. It will be a fun and wonderful experience. I have already thought about little boy ACUs and PT clothes (little army clothes) and what I will decorate the "boy" room in etc. I have always heard boys are "easier" but more rambunctious so I guess we will just have to see. I was excited that during the ultrasound our little boy was crossing his legs at the ankle like both his sisters do! So funny! We will keep y'all posted on names and other developments.

Halloween 2023

 We pulled off our best Halloween!  Possibly ever!  Jake had a vision and it came true beautifully.  He even had the cutest song he sang.  I loved our last Halloween in our Hurst home.  

sometimes life may get you down

but then you remember how wonderful you husband is and it makes it all ok. Jake surprised me by ordering these gorgeous handmade pearl earrings from TINY STORM for me for Christmas and they were waiting for us with all our mail when we arrived back home after vacation. He got down on one knee and presented me with these earrings and it brought tears to my eyes. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful, hardworking, and loving husband who is always there to take care of me and love me when I am having a rough time. Thank you Jacob!
