Our Trip to Mexico

In the month of Jan I finally had the chance to go to Mexico and visit my family. It had been 6 years since I had last gone back. WE LOVED IT. I loved every minute of it all. Jimmy was able to meet the rest my family and got to know them a little bit. We first stayed with my mom's side of the family. My cousin Anabel decided that since most of my cousins and uncle's could not come to the wedding here they would throw a traditional Mexican wedding. Woah! were we surprised. Everyone in my moms family came. My cousin dressed up as a priest and we had a "ceremony" I even cried haha. It was just so sweet that they wanted to share that with us. There was so much food, music,dancing, decorations, kareoke and even some fireworks! *From a big wedding next door but we got to ejoy them too :) * Overall we had a really good time. We also got to go to some mexican ruins at a place called Xochicalco. They built these at the top of a mountain and there was a beautiful view. The next few days we spent with my grandparents. Jimmy and I got to tour around Mexico City and enjoy the sites with my grandpa. We also got to go to the Mexico City Temple and it was amazing. My grandma was getting ready for surgery so we also went to the hospital with them and helped them with whatever we could. I also got to see my mom and dad there. It was a very fun trip and we loved my family, the food and the places we visited. PS: pics to come....

Thoughts

-I've been thinking a lot about all the blessings in my life and I can't hardly believe how blessed I've always been. Its amazing how we are so loved by our Heavenly Father nad how His hand is in all things.

-Jimmy finally got his cast off! His wrist looks great. Now that the cast is off, he has to be more careful with it. YOU CAN DO IT JIMMY! Now we need a hand specialist for physical therapy. If anyone knows of any good ones in Northern California.. please let us know.

-Yesterday I had the opportunity to go to a YW training meeting and Sis Anne Dibb was the speaker. It was so good! It definetly helped me re-charge my batteries for my calling. And I got to hug her, which I thought was pretty cool since she is Pres. Monson's daughter and all.

-Elder Holland is coming to our stake conference! I am so exited about this and cannot wait. I will definetly be getting there super early so I can sit up-close.

- I really need to do some decorating around the house. I need ideas. PlEASE share.

-I've been thinking about going back to school, I wish I would have gotten better grades in Anat & Phys and Microbiology. ugh.

-Michelle, hurry up and come visit me
