I was alway's told.....

I was always told that the definition of insanity was to repeat the same act and expect a different reaction. So why is it that me and millions of people do just that. Why is it so hard to change even the littlest thing in order to try and better you life and your situation? Oh well I guess I'll just keep trying till I go insane. : ) Day's can change and so do seasons so who's to say people can't change to. I have high hopes for the future I'm putting my faith in the lords hands and hope he will put me on the right path for me and my family.

Less Than 24 Hours.....

Well in less then 24 hours I will be sustained as an elder. Okay let's stop and think a minute........ When did this happen I'm doing what tomorrow? That's right I am just as amazed as you, The lord truly does work miracles because not more than a year ago I would have said it would take a miracle to get me to go back to church. : 0 And just to put everyone at ease this is 100 o/o my decision I know what I'm doing and it feels great when I feel the amazing spirit within my self and those around me it fills my heart to the point where I feel I can not take anymore. I'm looking forward to my years to come and see how my life will change with every day. The temple alone I feel will change everything in my and Kenna's life and the lives of our children.

So to all of you out there who are saying yippee Kenna won!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ( I am the one who really won if you think about it )

The Day's To Come............

There are so many things happening in the day's to come. Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the litle things. I know I do Gavins upcoming birthday alone is very stressful, at least I have an amazing wife who takes on more than she should to make life easer. I have only day's till this sunday when I recive the priesthood, I am amazed at how much joy the very thought brings me.

Piper is all better from her pink eye and I think we all got away with not catching it. She was so cute the other night she said her prayer's for the first time. Gavin was even jelouse of her because he alway's was the one to say the prayers. Anyhow thats about it so far just taking life day by day.

Poor Piper......

Well the pictures say it all......our poor sweet piper has a terrible case of pink eye. She is doing better now that she is on medication but it's so contagious we are just waiting to see if any of us get it as well. I hope we all can dodge that bullet.

Anyway just more fun things to keep our lives interesting. : ) Hope you all are well and healthy.

A Better Mood.......

Well for those of you who saw me yesterday I want you to know I'm in a better mood. Still stressed to the max and not sure what to do with these new challenges that have presented themselves. I need to remember that it's just another day and tomorrow will be another day and so on and so on. Some day's will be harder then others and I'm just ready for a good day to last through the whole day and not just part, up till the bad news comes.

Okay enough complaining, on a happy note the kids are getting better Gavin still has a cough however he is back to the little ball of energy that never stops talking. ( I Miss The Sick Gavin ) : ) Anyway I'm off to work, have a great day........

Cold Wind....

The rain may have stopped for the time being however it has been followed by a very cold wind, hard to say which is worse. Gavin is feeling better he still missed school today but I think he will be good by tomorrow. Kenna and I are happy to say that miss Maria is coming over tonight so that will be lots of fun, never a dull moment when maria's around. I have just figured out how to post music on my blog so I hope you enjoy some songs I chose to have playing in the background, if not.......Oh well it's my blog. : )

I was sad to miss out on family dinner last night but Gavin was still a little to sick to go out especially in the rain. I hope you guy's who went had fun, Kenna said the was some nurtz going on so maybe I'm glad I couldn't go. : ) Well it's time for work so I must be going.......sad but true.
Hope you all have a good day I'm planning to. ( Hope things go according to plan )

Long Day.......

It's been a long day both kids are sick and Kenna has been out with family, hopefully having fun. : ) Not much else to report day's go bye things tend to happen not all worth mentioning though. Works going good still having trouble at Best Buy but I have faith that everything will work out the way it's supposed to. All you need is trust and faith. If not both I hope you at least have one. Day's never stop, time continues on and things will always change, if it's bad now it will get good, if it's good now things will get bad, and that is what makes life worth living it never gets boring.

Night Time......

Night time, for some reason I can never sleep no matter how tired I am. Hope none of you are up tonight wishing you were sleeping.What is it about night time that makes you feel so small, it's good to be alone with your thoughts except when your thoughts drive you insane. Don't you wish your brain had an off switch. : ) Oh well guess to counting sheep I go.......

Day's Come And Go....

Day's come and go so quickly is almost hard to believe. I can't believe where I'm at and how quickly I got here, my meeting with the stake president last night was amazing and I have been approved to receive the priesthood. I will be sustained as an elder on Feb, 22 2009
and will receive the priesthood that same day. Eight years ago when I joined the Gardner clan I never would have seen this for my-self, but good things come to those who least expect it huh. : ) All and all it's been one hell of a journey from past to present and I'm finally focusing on my future and I like what I see. Thanks to you all and all your support.

Well It Was A . . . . .

Well it was a Monday. Why do Monday's always have to be so depressing? Is it just me or does everyone feel that way? Well it's a means to an end, because tomorrow I get to meet with "Brother Cook" (The Stake President) my last step to receiving the priesthood, that makes today worth it. : ) Believe it or not I think I'm even more excited than I should be!!! I can feel the temple is just around the corner, I can't wait to share the experience with those I love. Have a good night all and hope for a better day if your Monday was anything like mine.

A New Day!

Well I did not expect to write again so soon and yet here I am. I was shocked when I went to work yesterday at sears to find that my manager and friend had been let go after twenty years with the company! I guess no one is safe from this economic nightmare we are faced with. I hope we are able to pull out of this soon, and I hope that none of you reading are hurting, however if you are my prayers are with you, hang in there it always gets better. ( Someday ) Enjoy this wonderful Sunday.
