Things seem to be slowing down for me this week...but there are still a few things I want to get done before summer ends...including refinishing another coffee table, finishing a dresser that I antiqued, and refinishing our dining room table! Yay! THANK YOU Mom and Grandparents for giving us furniture to start out when we have our own home :)

Seth worked 80 hours last week but we still managed to have some fun. I'm so proud of him for the wonderful man that he is! He never complains and always has a smile on his face. I love you my sweetheart. It makes me miss him soooo much, but at least we get to see each other every night.

I got my hair done and my goal is to have it grow long and natural! So my color will fade a little into my natural color. My friend Kinsey did it and she's amazing :)

I got to spend some time with Kinsey and Sarah this week. We went to the rec. center and work out. We even got juice afterwards! I CANT BELIEVE HOW SORE I WAS DAYS AFTER THAT!!!!!
Luckily, I'm better now and I've even worked out a couple times since then :)

I read the book "Heaven is For Real," and it truly strengthened my testimony of heaven and especially Jesus Christ. Seth and I haven't watched the movie yet, but I think we might soon! The book is about a young boy that went to heaven for 3 minutes during surgery. He was very close to death. Then, throughout the years he says things here and there about what he experienced and what happened when he was in heaven. I loved how he emphasized how Jesus loves the children and just how he described things there. The picture below is mentioned in the book; another child had a similar experience to the boy and painted the picture of Jesus. In the book, the parents would show the boy pictures of Jesus, but the boy would always say it wasn't the right one. But when they showed him the picture mentioned (don't know if this was the exact picture), he fell silent and finally it was the right picture. The book isn't officially church doctrine or anything, but I liked it and I do like how Jesus is portrayed in this picture. I know that God loves us and that Jesus loves us. I know that some of the most important things in this life are how we treat each other and how we show God we love Him. I'm so thankful for all Jesus did for me so that I can have a happy life and return to live with my Father in Heaven.

Thursday was Mom's birthday. We went to park city and watched "Maleficent." Then went shopping for a bit and ate at Red Rocks. I found a CUTE birdhouse and I'm so excited to find something to do with it! We drove back and finished the night with a Whole Food's cake and homemade raspberry ice cream with our own home-grown raspberries :)
I love you, Mom. Happy Birthday.

Seth and I have been watching my favorite movie together. Only a few in this world actually know what it is. But sometimes we have evenings where we relax and watch some of the movie and we just love cuddling so much.

We lived it up at the fair with food from the Bread Barn (funnel cake, curly fries, lemonade, and a peanut butter ball). Only in Evanston! We had a fun night out together ;) We looked at animals and a hypnotist and just walked around being love birds.

On Saturday night we drove to Rock Springs for the Thompson Square Concert! We met up with Mark, Laura, Julia, Anna, Mary, Sarah, and Wes. It was so fun! The 2 singers are married and they were so cute together.
Most importantly, we love each other and we're there for each other when times get tough. I'm so blessed to know that we will be together forever, and knowing that I get unlimited time with my Seth makes me sooo happy!
