"It's been 1 year, 12 months, 52 weeks and 365 days since I married my best friend. It was the best decision i have ever made and has made me so happy. I love you. Heres to another year of learning and loving!"
It is such a blessing to be married to Dallin. He is so thoughtful and kind and does so much for me. I'm lucky that he is mine and I hope someday to treat him as well as he treats me. I love him so much.
Since our anniversary I have been thinking a lot about our future and what I want it to be. I've been going over my patriarchal blessing and pondering what I need to do and what we need to do as a couple to accomplish the vision that our Heavenly Father has for us as individuals and for our future family. Last FHE we talked about some things that we can do and made a few goals.
The first, that is mostly for me, is no social media/ technology until after 6 pm. This gives us time to finish our homework and spend quality time with each other without the distraction of technology. The second goal that we made was to more regularly hold Family Home Evening. We can't do this on Monday since Dallin has work from 6-10 pm but we can surely make time for it on Sunday after church. Our third and last goal is to have more meaningful couple prayers morning and night.
Lately life has been good but with every week that passes the more anxious I am to be finished with college and school for good. We found out that Dallin will be finished next fall! Which is exciting. He will graduate in December 2016. Unfortunately I'll have one more semester after that so I will graduate in April of 2017. It seems SO FAR AWAY. I just want to be done and start the next stage of our life. Ugh. Patience is a virtue I suppose.
However, something that has gotten me really excited lately is an idea I had about starting my own business! I am so excited! I will be selling baby crib rag quilts and probably some burp cloths and smaller blankets as well. I'm currently working on my practice quilt right now. I've gotten really frustrated and messed up quite a few times but I guess practice makes perfect. I'm hoping that I'll have a good hang of it by the time this practice quilt is finished. But I am seriously so excited to start. It feels right.
