Date Night

Every Thursday Jaremy and I get away on a date night.  It is such a treat to visit and relax together.  I love Jaremy so much!

Last night we talked about whether we should stay or try for a different job.  Our future needs are huge.  We have always been so blessed by the Lord.  We all were so surprised that we can live with just one bathroom in a tiny house.  It's been a blessing that has helped us develop a bit more patience and closeness.  However, this house might not always meet our needs.  We will have to see.

We both agreed we can easily "hasten the work" right here in Utah.  There are many, many missionary opportunities even within the our ward boundaries.  Not to mention family history and temple work can roll forward as well.  Also our children are about to start leaving on their missions.  So we don't need to move to "hasten the work."

Our family loves hiking and camping.  Although we are further from these things than in Logan we are still fairly close to the beautiful mountains.  So we don't need to move for this reason.

We both would feel more at ease if we were more financially secure.  It would be nice if we could also have extra money to travel to see extended family.  They are scattered all over the United States.  It won't be long before our own children move away.  It would be nice to be able to visit them too.  We will work hard, spend carefully and see what the Lord has in store for us.  We will be happy no matter what!

We might also need to take care of aging parents in the near future.  We know missions, braces, and educations cost a ton.  Our dear family also eats a ton, especially if we have company.  And, of course, we love to get together with family, friends, and future friends.  It's a great way to bond and fellowship.  So company will only increase.  So the future is going to be exciting!  Heavenly Father will bless us to do His work in the way He wants us to.  I'm so grateful for this assurance.
