Sealing pictures
I've been trying to get someone to send me photos of my brother's sealing pictures with his wife and little daughter. I wanted to go too, but school has a way of taking up all my time. My heart was with them at this wonderful time in their lives, I thought about them the entire time. Their daughter was adopted last March and she is the light of their life. I don't think anyone could ask for better parents. Craig and Heather were married in the Portland Temple and now they have been sealed to their daughter in the Nauvoo Temple. The Photos are so sweet and my sister in law is pregnant! I think she's had about 5 miscarriages and so far everything with this baby looks good. YEA, for her!!! She'll have two babies 12 months apart. I hope I can go visit after the birth.

Writing
I write all the time. It is enjoyable to me and my dream is to be a published writer one day. But even if I never get published, one of my professors said that I can still classify myself as a writer. She said I am able to communicate on paper very well and with more practice, she thinks I could be published one day. My geography teacher said that the last paper I wrote was darn near perfect and he thoroughly enjoyed reading my essay. He gave me 40 out of 40 points! I felt good about my paper, but I didn't know it was that good!!! Even though school is difficult because I am taking 16 credits while trying to be a good wife and take care of James and I by cooking healthy meals, (thanks mom for your help) and also trying to keep my house clean, bunnies to care for, laundry to do, yard work, and remodeling of the house to finish... it is still rewarding. So my goal is to do 1 hour of creative writing a day. Just like practicing music, the more you do it, the better you'll be at it. Last year, I wrote a children's book and got an A on the project. It was fun and now I read children's books on a consistent basis.

crochet
I love to crochet. I found the picture below in some of my old things. My grandma crocheted that poncho for me. I always loved it. It's funny how old things become new. My crocheting isn't as good as my grandma's, but hopefully it will be one day. Maybe by the time I have little granddaughters, it will be. I love this picture of me. James didn't believe I once had straight hair. I used to also have dimples, but the scan of this picture didn't come out so you can see them. Hopefully my girls will look like me, aren't I cute?
