Happy Anniversary-- #8

Today Austin and I have been married for 8 years. Because I traveled today to Utah from Idaho Falls, I had to opportunity to listen to "my" music. Every love song of course made me think of my true love and made me excited that we will be reunited on Thursday. I love Austin. So much.

Kimmie

Yesterday I watched Kimmie get ready for church and go to the singles ward. I found myself stupefied at her grace and beauty. I was not able to attend her high school graduation last month, but I did find these pictures on this laptop in the dining room. I was a bit misty eyed at the fact that she is heading to college and beginning the next huge phase in her life. She's a glower. (Kimmie is the girl in the center.)

Do You Love Me?

Today I called Austin (I'm still in Utah and he is home in Kansas) because I had a very important question for him. I asked, "Do you love me?" He replied, "Yah...." Then I simply hung up the phone. A couple hours later he called me and thought that I either had cut my hair or that I had spent a lot of money. I suppose our marriage is pretty good if those are the extreme reasons why he might not love me (as if that would ever happen). Of course I miss him terribly.

I Love to See the Temple

Ricky is married. Yesterday was his sealing in the Salt Lake Temple. We sat in the shade and ate fruit snacks during pictures. Here are some candids of the that blessed event.

More Sunday Pics

Sunday Celebation

Because we are in Utah for Ricky's wedding, many of the cousins went to mis padres ward for church. I was not prepared for the joy I felt sitting as a family. What a blessing to belong to the Guymon family. Maisie sat with Ricky, Meg sat with Emily, Andy sat with Mark, and Nick was passed between Austin and I. After church Mom made an amazing lunch. These are the pictures of our Sunday celebration.

The Ring

Yesterday I noticed that Maisie's ring was gone. I asked her what happened, and she told me that it was lost, but Jesus was taking care of it.

Happy Birthday, Andy!

Today is Andy's 5th birthday! He spent most of it in front of the Wii, knowing full well that when tomorrow comes the rationing rules are a go. We were able to go swimming and to McDonalds for dinner. Of course we celebrated with a Mario Kart cake.
