"The only way to get through life is to laugh your way through it. You either have to laugh or cry. I prefer to laugh. Crying gives me a headache."

It's so true...I tryed both ways, and laughting is way more pleasant...
Have a good weekend!!
This week I received a letter from one of my best friends Elizama Bezerra ( Sister Bezerra for now), she is serving a mission in Sao Paulo - Brazil for our church - The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints - in her letter she asked me how I knew the Nathan was the one...so I started thinking about my feelings for my husband, how special these feelings are, but to describe it I decided to read my journal from the time we were online dating, It was such a good thing to read my journal, and see that from the beginning I knew that he had the qualities I was looking for in a eternal companion...after crying feeling so much joy, I decided to read it all hahhaha I am so grateful for keeping a journal, It served as a wake up call for me, to always remember the wonderful experiences, the blessings, the hard moments that we passed through together...To always remember who I am and what my priorities in life are!!!

We had such a great time, Missy C is spending her vacation here in NC with us, and she was all excited about the 4th of July party...we made Snowflake's (N8's mom) famous pasta salad, Nathan convinced me to double the recipe, cause "there would be lots and lots of people at the party" yeah right, he wanted a bowl just for himself...it is his favorite food hahah Love you Nana..trying to trick me huh?! so after making 2 huge bowls of pasta salad and still having some left we went to the party...Missy had a very cute outfit, even her socks had American flags on it hahaa...when we got there I could smell one of MY favorite foods HOT DOG YAY Jayden!!!! Jayson was the chef, and he is good at it, nothing got burned Good Job Jayson!!! We played games, watched the fireworks the guys provided hahaha...when it was dark we all sat by the fire and we listed to "scary" stories, actually the stories were more funny than scary...It's really good to have friends, Thank you Emily and Jayson for having us over!!!

Me when I turned 18...
I remember how scared I was 4 years ago leaving the Young Woman Organization to go to Relief Society, I didn't wanna be with the "old ladies" hahah how silly huh?! But I knew I would learn so much in that organization...When all my fears went away, and I was ready for the change, I was called as YW adviser, yes that's right I didnt' go to RS when I turned 18, then I got released from YW, I thought "great, now I can be part of the ladies club" hahah Wrong, I was called as second counselor in Primary, so for 2 years after turning 18 I didn't experience Relief society, until I came to US, and all the women treated me with so much love, Kind, patient... I truly love the RS, I love going to church on Sundays, and every week I look forward to go to RS, the classes are amazing, the feelings that I am a special daughter of our Heavenly Father are very strong there...this past Sunday, sister Eshiet taught about the power of forgiveness it was such a spiritual class, I realize how ease life is when we don't keep bad feelings about others, don't take offense (I know this is a hard one)...But having a grudge really hold us back in life, and hurts us more then anybody else! After that class I realized that I need to be a happier person everyday, and just let go of things that may let me down with my testimony, and with people that I love and care about...
Everytime we get a new piece of furniture Nathan has to convince me that it will look good...with our coffe table wasn't diferent...we got it for free, and sure we were all excited about free stuff, but when we moved to our apartment I wanted something nicer looking, that would match with our new awesome couch, but the money was tight so we had to stick with the old, not hot looking coffee table.., that is when Nathan steps in hahaha our friend Jamie suggested us to spray paint it, so Nathan did it...and check it out, what a difference, now our free coffe table looks way better...
