BUSY.....

Sorry I have been busy with the wedding, moving, and now work. The wedding went off with out a hitch. The Oakland Temple is soo beautiful!!!! I miss the Celestial Room!!! It was great to see all those who love us and support our marriage.
I totally fell in love with his mom, Merle. She is such a sweet lady. I especially like Chris and Laura who have been such great friends to Jason.
Everything is going good. Moving Jason's stuff to Arizona was quite the experience. In San Bernadino, at the motel 6, there was quite the drunk who kept waking everyone up with his drunken stupor.
When we were finally in AZ we unloaded the truck and then got the car. That Saturday, we headed up to Payson to see the girls.  He decided to wait as long as he could in the car so I could have my time with them. However it got a bit too cold for him and he came in. Then once Mira saw him she asked "Is that your honey?" I told her he was and she then replied, "He's FAT!!!" I was so embarrassed. I quickly told her we don't call people fat and she replied, "Well Santa is Fat!" I couldn't help to laugh! The girls met Jason and the younger two seemed to be okay with him, just not really sure what the older two thought.

A New Adventure begins.....

As I'm sitting in the airport waiting for my flight to Sacramento, CA which was at 7:40pm that has now been delayed to depart at 9:00pm.  I realize that I haven't written anything on here since the start of the new year.
Since the start of the year I ended up getting a kompass store for work which means no travelling to places like Cottonwood, Yuma, Tuscon, and Flagstaff do get some work/ hours.
I have finally gotten Jason and I an apartment. Granted it's the same complex I lived at when I was married before to Aaron (10 years ago). Just thankfully not the exact same apartment, but it is very close.
Yesterday and today I moved all my stuff into the apartment. Jason texted me asking if there was still room for his stuff. I laughed and told him "YEAH!"
Today grandma told me that it wasn't too late to break off the wedding if there is no spark.... Considering Jason and I have never kissed, hold hands, or even hugged. She said if there was no spark to not marry him. 'There has to be a spark to marry him.' I personally think there will be FIREWORKS!!!!! (sorry grandma but what you said isn't staying in the house!! LOL!!)
I'm so getting anxious for this wedding to be over with. I'm also anxious to see him again.... I'm so nervous about our first hug and kiss, and whether or not it will live up to my expectations. But then again I shouldn't have expectations..... like those women dream of in romance novels.
So I need to relax and try not to be anxious on seeing him again. I have prayed and fasted about this and everything will work out. I also think a nap will help me also. Maybe I can get some on the plane. Hopefully it arrives soon.

First Visit in almost 3 years

Okay so I was nervous as I was going up the mountain to see my girls and to see if my vehicle would make it... Everything went fine. I waited there for about 2 hrs (since I left EARLY early just to make sure I wasn't pushing the car beyond it's limits). An hour and half in the car and the rest inside McDonald's. Before they show up I tried to eat something but was having a difficult time swallowing due to my anxiety. Never the less I managed to eat and wait and wait and wait. Not know what car they would be arriving in. Finally I see it, my ex's beat up '05 truck.... and by beat up I mean his accident prone truck.  I'm forcing back the tears and wait to see them come thru the doors..... first I see Angelina scanning the restaurant for me, then I see Mira and Kristina doing the same, and finally Veronica actually walks in looking around. I call Veronica's name and she turns to see me but not really sure it's me. Once she realizes it is me she runs to me for a hug which led to the others but Kaydee (Kristina) to hug me. Kaydee just looks at me like "Where have you been? I've missed you!" She then runs and wants me to pick her up. So of course I pick her up.  From then on she wouldn't move much from my side.... except of course to play in the play area. My ex, Aaron, went and ordered the girls lunch while I of course got their presents from the car. In all the excitement the girls did eat most of their food. They were extremely happy to see all the gifts I brought. Allie (angelina) wouldn't give up the recorded book I got all of them for Christmas. During the whole visit Kaydee kept climbing all over my back like a monkey. At one point Kaydee's foot slipped and she hit her head against the table, so I immediately reached for her. She came right to me and refused to go to Aaron. I rocked her back and forth for about 3 minutes and she was fine. She kissed my cheek and became my happy little monkey all over again. I had gotten more hugs and kisses from my baby than any of the other girls. Oh and she is so camera shy, especially if you have the  video going. One of the girls favorite things was sitting in my lap and looking thru the only pictures I had of them and telling them what was going on in them. I guess I'll be making a scrapbook album for each girl. It was certainly a fun day with them and I can't wait till next month when I get to see them again, after the wedding.

Pics of wedding preparations...

Wedding announcement before getting the cancellation letter. Which this turned into reception announcement instead. I made this one and it was the 15th one I designed.

  This is the Sealing announcement I made a day after receiving the cancellation letter.

This what we chose for our wedding cake, but it will be two tiered instead of three.

 It will be lemon cake with raspberry filling.

New Beginnings...

In less than a month I will be starting a new chapter in my life....

getting married for All Time and Eternity in the Oakland Temple.

Earlier this week I received a letter from the First Presidency saying that I am no longer sealed to my previous spouse and that I am basically able to be married and sealed to Jason. I am so excited I can hardly wait!!! 

To top it off I FINALLY get to see all of my girls after 2 1/2 years!!!

Yes!!! I'm driving up to Payson to meet them in at McDonald's (pictures will be taken and posted). I'm excited to give them their Christmas gifts!! It will be my gift to just see them and hug them!!! 

It puts a perfect end to a perfect week!!!

In other stuff happening since last posted....

2. I'm not moving to California.... instead he is moving here.

3. My sister got sealed to her husband in the Mesa Temple on November 27th and I attended to support her.

4. My cousin Dallin received his mission call "Mexico Cuernavaca Misson, Spanish speaking".

5. Found out the girls are now living in AZ since October.

6. Dallin left for the MTC December 7th.

7. More steady hours at work, except during these holidays.

Well I think that is about all of it.....

The Past month and a half....

Well I know I was complaining about not having an income for a month in my last post. Well..... I ended up starting early with my job and worked 3 weekends in August. I was so relieved. I also got another job and will be orientation tomorrow. I can't wait!! This will help with saving to move to CA.

My sister also went thru the Mesa Temple in August as well. I couldn't go due to work. I'm so happy for her and this major step in her life.

Two of my girls celebrated their birthdays in the last two weeks. All my girls are quite the beautiful young ladies. They are loving school and being with their friends again.

The other love in my life, Jason, is AMAZING!!!! He and I have been lifting one and another, it seems more and more frequently. He was apologizing yesterday that we wouldn't be able to talk as long as we usually do at night since he  needed to go to bed early to help the youth do baptisms at the Temple. I told him to please never apologize for honoring his priesthood. I told him that I love that he honors it and uses it frequently. It, to me, shows what kind of man he is and strives to be. I'm so lucky to have him, very soon...as a husband!

Jason and I have talked more about Our Wedding. We have set a date, colors, and etc. I'm getting more and more excited as the date gets closer. By the end of the year I will be moving to CA and then shortly after wards he and I will be married!!

I'm happy for those in my life and the love they give me. I wouldn't change it for the world! I hope and pray that everyone is safe and happy!
