Wedding in Chicago

-



While I was home I also had a wedding to go to and it was beautiful!! I love to go to old Cathedrals but I have to tell you that I feel so lucky to be a member of the church and to know the truth. As I sat and listened to the Mass I couldnt help but think that the spirit was so missing and I felt that the wedding was more of a show for the priest than of the couple. I am just so thankful to be married in the temple and to have the knowledge that I do. I then went to the reception which ended up being a miny highschool reunion. I was surrounded by some really good friends and girls I cheered with! I found it very funny that NO one knew who I was!!! I had so many people "pretend or fake it" and then when I realized that they were looking at me weird I would ask, do you know who I am? NO they would say, I am so sorry! Then I would tell them and mouths would drop and then freaking out as they said Karmann, Karmann Clements!! I kept asking did I look that bad in Higshcool, they said no and then would say, you were this cute little thing and now you are all grown up. I found it to be pretty dang funny!!

Last week I was home doing some work before I had to leave for a Home Visit. I was siting on my couch when I hear someone on my back porch moving our chairs around. I thought it was Ryan since sometimes he comes in from the back when he puts his tools and ladders away. Except after this man gets the chair he places it in the corner by our french doors and sits down! My heart starts to beat and I go to the front to see if Ryan's truck is outside. His truck is NOT outside!!!! I then go to the window where the previous renters had broke and pear out and see a man sitting in my chair with tattoos all up his arm, wearing a wife beater and dickie shorts. He is crouched really close to the wall on the chair. My hearts begins to beat so fast! THERE IS A MAN ON MY BACK PORCH AND I AM HOME ALONE! My first reaction was to call the police. I called 911 and the lady was so sweet she told me to stay calm and that police were on their way. She asked me what he looks like and I told her. She the...

This is really LONG and sorry mostly words but those of you who like to read my spiritual posts continue on because this is a big one! Just before Christmas Ryan and I were told about a possible adoption opportunity. We had talked about adopting in the past but had not done anything about it due to well.............. I cant really say. With this new opportunity of, just by chance my waiting to be a mom could be over, brought lots of emotions of excitement, joy, worry, anxiety, hope, and so many more. We needed to get our acts together right away in the process since the potential birth mom was due in May. Ryan's mom has a dear friend working for LDS services here in Washington and got us set up right away to get started on all the paperwork, online stuff, and going about getting all the background checks and homestudy done. We have done a lot and have moved forward in faith always asking if this is meant to be then let it happen. I did not want to have a baby that was not meant to ...

So I was asked a couple of weeks ago to teach a class for Enrichment on: HOW to CREATE a SAFE BLOG I had been fighting the feeling of putting my blog private for sometime now. I am a little lazy and haven't wanted to take the extra time to get everyones email and then go through the process of changing things over but the time has come TO MAKE A CHANGE! I do use my blog to share my life and all aspects of it. I have been really personal in the past year and I know that a lot of people that I really didnt/shouldnt have read the things that I have been going through have read it. I am coming to terms that it is NOT SAFE and this CHANGE is VERY necessary.  So to all of you that I see come on my blog ( via- my traffic feed and even though it doesn't say sometimes your name, I put two and two together) :) that I would call BLOG STALKER since you do not give a sweet comment but look and leave- HERE is your CHANCE to give me your email address so t...
