Stress/Happiness

So I have to say I have been pretty stressed because of the government shut down. Because that's where our income comes from. But I've been trying really hard not to think about it and find the good in life :) well Sunday was my birthday and it was a good lazy birthday, watched conference, then went to my grandmas & moms house for dinner and birthday cake. Got to see my brothers, sister-in-laws, nieces and nephews. It's always really nice to spend time with family it gets your mind off the stress in life I think. 

     Then Monday was Mine and Blake's dateing anniversary, 18 years we have been together. We have had our ups and downs but I wouldn't change anything we have gone through :) I love this man more then I can put into words.

      Then today (Tuesday Oct. 8, 2013) Blake and I went to go clean the Manti Temple. It was an amazing experience. We got to feel the spirit while cleaning which is crazy I know. We got to get a great work out (that I can definitely feel tonight), a history lesson, and look at all the amazing things in the temple. It was an awesome way to spend my birthday/anniversary. I also got a job application to work at the Temple:) It would be a drive for me, but I think I would really enjoy it.
