Alive and Well

Yes, we are alive. I might have lied about the well part though. The holidays were crazy busy this year for us. Since I work in retail (and at Apple, no less) this was the most insane holiday I have ever experienced. Black Friday was nothing, but everyday after that was just pure insanity. The shoppers of Connecticut will stop at no lengths to get what they want. Things are definitley calming down at the store, which hopefully means for my life as well. Mike was also busy at the end of the year, finishing up some projects so we could go home for New Years (blogs to come...maybe ha).

We do have some great news in our ward though! Katie, one of our Young Women, is getting baptized on Saturday! We are so excited! She is so great and the other girls just love her!

Me, Mike, Kayla, Katie, Elder Tanner, and Elder Lawson

Alma 29: 9-10

9 I know that which the Lord hath commanded me, and I glory in it. I do not glory of myself, but I glory in that which the Lord hath commanded me; yea, and this is my glory, that perhaps I may be an instrument in the hands of God to bring some soul to repentance; and this is my joy.

10 And behold, when I see many of my brethren truly penitent, and coming to the Lord their God, then is my soul filled with joy; then do I remember what the Lord has done for me, yea, even that he hath heard my prayer; yea, then do I remember his merciful arm which he extended towards me.
