A little bit of "elbow grease"!

WOW! I want to be FINISHED RENO'S!!! lol So ya, I know I'm going to TOTALLY and COMPLETELY love the end result, but I tell ya, the middle part...sucks!!! I hate having our home such a ginormous mess! But, it comes with the territory right?! So I just wanted to post a few pictures from our renos so far. Yest. we tore down the old sheet rock, put up the vapor barrier and tore out all of our old cupboards! The next step is to get our tile flooring down so that we can have it finished before putting in the new cabinets! So here are some pics... I know you're all probably thinking...where are you Mindy??? Yes, believe it or not I am working SUPER HARD TOO!!! lol I just happen to be the one that's taking the pictures! He's so cute!!! We just got a 3d tv...yes you heard me correct....a 3d TV !!!!! It so SOOOOO SA-WEET!! Who needs a theatre when you've got one in the comfort of your own home, lol! Night all!!

wake up call !

So we've had a really busy weekend. As a lot of you know we've started doing reno's in our home, and will be doing them for probably the next 2-3 months. It's really great, and exciting....but here's comes the BIG but!!! Tonight, as I was attending a baptism, I had this total wake-up call. If I don't have the gospel, I don't have anything. Yes, I already knew this, but I don't think that I have been completely appreciating all of my blessings. As I sat their, with Richard arm around me, it took me back to my Mission. What an amazing experience it was. *I miss bearing my testimony daily *I miss feeling the spirit 24/7 *I miss having these powerful spiritual experiences every day *I miss seing the look on people's faces when they "get it" *I miss watching people enter into the covenant of baptism Of course there's SO MANY more things that I miss, but the bottom line it was like a smack in the face! DUH Melinda....yo
