A Father's Birthday

Today my Dad turns 60! How awesome! I love him loads! He is the best example to me of the love that my Father in Heaven has for me! Knowing the love that my earthly father has for me makes me wonder at the greatness of the love of God for each of us! I don't know what to say that I haven't already said about my Father all the billions of times before! He is  SO AMAZING! Before I went through the temple he helped me to learn more and grow in understanding. He is so willing to give us blessings any time we ask! Recently I had gotten rather ill... I nearly fainted, but my father immediately used his priesthood to help me out! He is such a wonderful man and I love him dearly! Included is the picture I had made into an 8x10 and framed for his birthday! :D

New England and Wedding

As many may know this past weekend I went to New England for my best friend's wedding! It was absolutely amazing! New England in the fall is gorgeous! I also loved the humidity! It was my first time having Dunkin Donuts... SOOOO GOOD! I had nice Italian Pizza... the good stuff, and ice cream! Oh my goodness  Mike's brother Tony is an amazing cook as well! Any time we were over there and he cooked it was delicious! They have really good apple cider out there and it's just plain awesome! One of Mike's nieces told me that I was her best friend! His family (including new in-laws) rocks!!!! I felt so at home while I was there and the hospitality was amazing! I was able to attend my first live sealing as well, and it was absolutely magnificent! I didn't start to tear up until after I heard Mike's mom tear up for a bit, and then when they knelt across the altar! It was absolutely perfect! What had me bawling was when I went to give the family hugs! Mike and Melanie's parents were absolutely perfect! But of course Bubba was the one to make me bawl! I love him and my new sissy-in-law loads! They are so awesome and having the opportunity to go into the sealing room and be there when they could be sealed together forever was perfect! Also, being around our friend Brad helped loads too! Sometimes in life you wonder about the friends you choose and if they really do care, but when it all comes down to things the true friends you make in life will always be around no matter what! I loved meeting all of Michael and Melanie's families! I also, met Brad's step-mom Teresa and his grandparents (mom's parents)! They were all so very nice and hospitable... I couldn't ask for anything better!

Also, when I came back home on Sunday I was sad to leave New England but pretty dang excited because my sister, Jeane, is in town and Dad's 60th birthday is this coming weekend! I definitely love family! :D
