The results are in!

. . .and Christmas 2010 was officially a hit! I was sooooooooooooooooo excited for Bryan to open his gift that I made (with much help from my Dad). He liked it! He likes it so much that now it is a part of our living room/dining area. :) Which is okay with me, cuz I am pretty happy he likes it enough to display it! One thing Bryan enjoys is Sci-Fi. He especially likes Star Wars. He likes it enough that a few years back for Bryan's 30th Birthday, I sought out to find a replica movie poster of the Original Movie Release. Star wars was released in 1977. . .the year Bryan was born. It's cool. He also owns 3 replica FX light sabers. Those have been pretty much propped up in the corner of our closet for the last year or so. Anyways, I got a fabulous idea and my Dad helped me make it. . . .so, drum role . . . .

This shelf (and top part) holds 3 light sabers. I made the 'Star Wars' logo with my vinyl. This is a one of a kind 100% hand made!


Bryan knows me just as well as I know him. He got me the new Josh Groban CD "Illuminations" and the Lady Gaga "Fame Monster" along with a cute Harley Davidson hoodie. I LOVE hoodies!. All in all we had a very merry Christmas.
Our families both sent us nice gifts and spoiled us pretty rotten. We missed our families quite a bit. . .but sacrifices must be made sometimes in life.  I should be really tired but I am not, even after getting up at 7am, my insomnia monster still keeps me up.

My Testimony

It's hard to put into words how I feel toward my Heavenly Father and the Savior. I have so many reasons to be thankful for what I have gone through & endured. Because of my trials in life I have gained a strong testimony of Faith. I have always had Faith in the Lord and in Prayer. As I faced the decision to get a double lung transplant I had to rely on faith to make the choice.....By listening to the spirit, I was guided to Pittsburgh where my life was saved. I believe prayers are answered. I have always tried to follow the philosophy of this: If I do what the Lord expects of me, he will give me what I want & need. That has always worked for me. I Believe in MIRACLES..........My life on this earth is a miracle- I prayed on my knees for years to be healed from my lung disease. I knew that through a priesthood blessing (if it was God's will) I could be healed. So many times I thought he would heal me instantly...my faith was tested as I continued to get sick and no cure was in my future. I turned to prayer....I talked to my Heavenly Father, I cried to him and he heard me and he healed me by guiding me to Pittsburgh and guiding the surgeons hands. I learned humility, and thankfulness. I realized that we need others to lean on and we are supposed to strengthen each others testimonies. I learned that the hardest things we'll do are usually the greatest blessings in our life. I was able to experience a lot of things during surgery and I know I had comforting angels in my ICU room. THe Lord knows each of us by name and he will never leave our side. We need to remember to stay close to him and have Faith that he is watching over us. I know this for a fact! I know that following the gospel will bring us true happiness- the world will tell us otherwise, but I know I am truely happy & living the gospel has brought me that. Amen
