Last weekend we spent a amazing weekend in San Diego, since coming home I just can't get over how hot it is. We try to get up and work out in our garage in the morning and it's so hot. Same thing at like 9:00pm at night. Just makes me want a house in the summertime in Southern Cali. Ryan and I drove by University of San Diego and wondered for a minute how fun it would be to be in grad school in Cali poor and living on love. But then we realized how good we have it here with all our family and friends and we can make it through the hot hot summer.
In San Diego we were able to go to the Wild Animal Park, the beach and go to the temple before enjoying a great dinner on the ocean. I didn't take too many pictures so I'm just going to post what I took.
And how cool is this you can caravan and feed the giraffe's I am SO doing that next time!
It was much needed and I hope we never stop dating. We also can't wait to go back to all these fun places we have been over the last few years with our children. Walking through the parks and seeing the joy and laughter from the little kids makes my heart smile.
In other news in our families world. My brother Josh graduated from MidWestern and is a pharmacist now! He got a job at a hospital and has moved back to Vegas. I love having my whole family here. I was so sad we were unable to make it but it happened to fall on the same weekend we had our last retrieval.
So handsome. I am so proud of him!
We also missed Ryan's big family reunion camping this last week because of Ryan's schooling. It fell on the same week as his orientation. We were super bummed but SO excited for Ryan to start school and know we are so close to the end goal of Ryan being a Physical Therapist. I am so proud of him and we are so close to being done!
Our transfer is officially scheduled for August, we are getting closer. I know it's getting close when I start new medicine lol I am starting to freak out because I have had two dreams of Ryan and I but their were no kids in my dream. I woke up crying and just said a prayer of asking for help from Heavenly Father. I became calm and was able to go back to sleep but it scared me. I am trying to stay positive, Heavenly Father knows how much we want this and how hard it has been. I have done things to my body I didn't ever think I would do and while I was scared, nothing overpowered my love for my future child enough to not make me go through all the procedures and shots. All I can do is pray and have faith that this will result in a beautiful healthy baby.
Elder Richard G. Scott said, “I testify that when the Lord closes one important door in your life, He shows His continuing love and compassion by opening many other compensating doors through your exercise of faith. He will place in your path packets of spiritual sunlight to brighten your way. They often come after the trial has been the greatest, as evidence of the compassion and love of an all-knowing Father. They point the way to greater happiness, more understanding, and strengthen your determination to accept and be obedient to His will.”
I am looking forward to and hoping with all my being that our baby will be our "packet of spiritual sunlight". With everything we have been through the last 3 years from Cancer, to Parkinson's, to infertility and other trials that have come our way I have never lost hope that sunshine in one form or the other is just around the corner.
Looks like another fun trip. You two are the cutest couple :) I am praying a baby will find its way into your family. Love you!
