1st Anniversary!!!

This morning Chris was so amazing. He made me breakfast and let me sleep in. It was so awesome . . . Then I woke up in a tent. We were wet, cold, hungry, and it was only 6:00a.m. Haha! Chris and I had the opportunity to be the youth conference specialists for our ward this year. It just so happened the dates fell over our anniversary. Our youth conference was a blast!! We have some of the best youth in our ward!


At our service project on Thursday.



At the campsite!! It was soooo cold our poor girls froze!



The young men didn't think we had enough wood so they took it upon themselves to go and "push" down a tree. Thank goodness they did because we burned 2 trees in 2 days haha



The young men with half the tree



The other half of the tree.



Our amazing cooks!!



Chris' Armor of God talk



We planned the whole thing around a boot camp theme. These are the packs we gave them.



Our faithful warriors!!!! Love these guys so much. They were all asked to prepare a 5 minute talk on the 13th AoF and all I can say is WOW!!!!



Chris & I. Isn't it funny how 1 year ago was the most glamorous day of my life and this morning I didn't even put make up on:)



I came home to a dozen red roses. Chris is so awesome and he is my best friend. This year gas been hard but it has also been so great!!!

  6. The contrasting days will be a fun memory! Good for the two of you planning such an amazing youth conference! The kids were blessed to have you as leaders. And, yes, you will find that each day, week, month, and year get better and better as you give 100% to your spouse. Selflessness is so contrary to today's culture of "it's all about me", isn't it? You and Chris are a great couple. Bless his heart for giving you roses and breakfast in bed! What a charmer! Love you!
