#2 and #6

I've read two more books since I posted my list:

"How Do You Know When You're Really In Love?" by Robert K. McIntosh. It was really good. Since I've decided to become a Marriage and Family Therapist, I've started reading more books about relationships and stuff. There's a lot to learn and I'm definitely learning a lot. It's fun and I enjoy reading about it, especially from the Church's point of view. (That brings me into a whole other area of thought... one I'll probably blog about, but now right now.) Anyway, it was a really good book! I highly recommend it to everyone!

The second book I read was the first book in the Children of the Promise series, "Rumors of War." SO GOOD!!! I forgot just how much I love those books. I finished the first book last Thursday and haven't had a clue what to do with myself since. (I don't own any of the other books and I couldn't find a copy of the second one.) I went to Barnes and Noble on Saturday night to buy the second book, but apparently the Children of the Promise books are exclusive to Deseret Book. So obviously, I stopped by today and bought the second book. I'm already pretty far into it. It's such a great series.

Lauren

This is me!! (What do I say??) I love journaling and I keep trying to give blogging a shot, haha. I love reading and learning about basically any subject, especially anything spiritually related. I work for a credit union here in Ogden and am loving it so far. (Bank schedule… score!!) I serve on the Utah Kappa Delta Alumnae Chapter Council (whew, that's a mouth full) and I also started my own It Works business this last year. Usually my "free time" is spent building that business, watching my favorite tv shows with my husband, and hanging out with my family! I've set some new goals that I'll share on here and hopefully this blog will document my progress, along with the rest of my life.

Jarvis

Oh Jarv. I love this man of mine more than I can say. One of the first things I loved about Jarvis was just how similar we are. Our sense of humor is the same, our personalities are the same, and a lot of the time we're thinking the same thing. But marriage brings out everything and I'm learning that we are also very different. He's pretty country… he loves horses, cows and farms and spends his days teaching high school kids all about them. He's also the FFA Advisor. He is one of those blessed individuals that absolutely loves what he does for work. (Lucky!!) When he's not working, he's either working on his online classes, helping out as the Chairman of the ATO (fraternity) board, or hanging out at home with the fam.

Luke

Luke is still our favorite. He is growing so fast and learning so much, it's hard to keep up. He's such an even mix of Mom & Dad, sometimes serious, sometimes hilarious!! A people watcher, an extrovert, and of course the funniest person in the room. ;) He's smart, very polite, and is talking all the time. We now have to watch what we say because he copies our words all the time. The answer to any question he's asked is "yeah" or "umm" and he LOVES "nanas" (bananas.) We absolutely love this little kiddo and hope he continues growing into the handsome, polite, happy kid he is.
