We went to the temple today for a friend's wedding and took a couple family shots.
Can I just take a minute to say how blessed I am?! I am married to a wonderful husband who honors his priesthood and fulfills his church duties. He works hard and takes great care of me. He loves my swollen ankles and stretch marks.
Speaking of which, the other day I came into the room after looking in the mirror and I said to Russ (in a somewhat complaining voice) "I am already getting stretch marks!" But, Russ said in his kind reassuring voice, "but it's all worth it right?" Then I thought, wow. It really is. I promised myself that I would not complain about anything during this pregnancy because of everything we went thru to get here. And, now I am reminded of that. Anything I go through is worth it. It is SO WORTH IT!! We are so blessed to be pregnant. We thank Father in Heaven everyday for this miracle in our lives. After such a long time trying, we are so excited to finally have the opportunity to have a child!! We are just so happy!

What a handsome couple! And it is totally worth it even if your stomach looks like Donna's afterward, but it's cool cause she still looks good.
Ouch, Donna.
Those are great pictures of you two, you look so happy. We are so excited for you guys and look forward to that time!!
Hi, I'm Bobi, your sister's old roommate. Thanks for commenting on my blog. I hope I wasn't sounding rude, I just was curious who it was in the faraway countries reading my blog! Are you Rachel's next younger sister cause I think we may have met during mother's week or something way back in 98.
