First Day in Florida

Mark and I are completely elated at our chance to be here. We are already having so much fun. The flight left at 10 this morning and we arrived here around 4:30 Florida Time. I have pics. of Mark at the SL Airport and Mark and I at the Orlando Airport. Don't laugh to hard at the cheesey pics but I am posting a lot of things to make my kids feel a part of the whole deal. Like for instance...the airplane, and Zach loves cars so the pic. of Papa John's car is for you.

Reunion

Our Hotel Room. It is even nicer than it looks!

Once we checked in at the hotel we met over at Judy's house and had hors d'oeuvres and Judy made a great salad and grilled up an amazing dinner with hamburgers, hot sausage, and chicken. We had such a nice evening relaxing by the pool and listening to the warm rain drizzle on the patio roof.

I'm so impressed that you have had any time to blog - Your kids are doing great. Eli and Abby are real pals and so are Rachael and Noel. (I think Noel is going to set up Rachael for a double date tonight) Your baby is adorable and is playing well with Allie. I will encourage Rachael to blog so you can see the snake that they found in the back yard!

Officially in the Limelight!

I had an interesting experience this evening. Without divulging more than I should, let's just say that I was told that people in my area are concerned that I have not kept my information about the stake changes private until the appropriate time. They were concerned that because I dated my blog post for the date of my writing some people thought that I had said something before the stake split announcement. Let me assure you that this isn't the case. I date my posts for the day that I write them but I didn't post them until Nov. 9th, the afternoon of the day of Stake conference. With that being said, this experience brought to my attention how much being a bishop's wife really is somewhat like being on show for everyone. Sometimes you are scrutinized and it is good, and sometimes it isn't so good.  I felt truly inspired to write and keep this blog so that people can get an idea of what a normal bishop's family is like. This however can be difficult because I ...

Pushed to the Limits Sometimes

I have been pretty overwhelmed lately. Actually it seems to be a recurring theme in my life that I am not very pleased about. I tend to wonder why it is that I get into situations where I feel overwhelmed. I question my ability to put my life in the right perspective. So, next week in particular is going to be beastly! My larger roles will include....teacher, preschool teacher, employee (24 hours next week), mother, maid, and cook. The problem is that I don't feel like I am excelling at any of them. For instance Zach. He needs me to be a great teacher, to give him my best and most undivided attention. Instead I am giving my all to stay awake and the rest goes to him and Jillian.

Battling Anxiety and Depression With Christ on my Side

I have been pondering this topic for over a week and still don't think I can express fully the depth of my thoughts.  I write of which I intimately know and battle every day, that of depression and anxiety.  These life debilitating illnesses sometimes rule my life, and sometimes I rule them.  I go through times in my life where I feel happy and content, and other times where the weight of my flaws brings me so low. Yesterday was the final straw of an emotional drain that I have felt as of late.  Any of the events in and of themselves shouldn't have been enough to put me into a tailspin and yet today it was more than I could handle.  Let me preface my day's events by saying that there are things I won't write about due to the privacy that my husband and children deserve, so most of what I write about concerns only me.  With that being said, we have been battling some big issues in our family and that has already made me feel quite frankly like I am failing...
