RS

Today at church I once again sat in awe of the women of my ward.  
The diversity.
The life experiences they share.
The things they teach me unknowingly.
I feel blessed.
I love to listen to the women share their testimonies of what they know to be true with their various accents.
It makes my heart smile!  
 It makes me smile.  
The sister who shared of her and her husband's 11 year journey to have a baby.
The sister who shared how she prayed to be able to be off work on Sundays to attend church and her prayers were answered.
The sister who has served a service mission for the last ten years and just signed on for 30 more months.  She works at the storehouse making sure those in need have food.
The good news minute where sisters share a quick little "good news."
SO UPLIFTING!
I am so grateful to learn from these women.  I am grateful for the Relief Society organization that allows us to interact, work, and serve together as women.
I hope to continue to get to know these women that lift me up and I know are there for me if I ever need.  What a blessing!
The RS organization will be 169 years old this month!

  1. I've only seen the "good news minute" time once in Kayla's Provo ward. Wish we had something like that around here. Not that I ever get to attend RS anyway, but I think it would be fun. U n l e s s....they did it many years ago and it got too weird. lol Around here you never know. ;)

  2. I love that you love your RS. I'm scared to move back down to San Diego because I don't think I will love my RS as much as I do here. This post gives me hope tho :)

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!
