SO TONIGHT I TRIED SOMETHING A LITTLE NEW. I MADE SOME PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE FUDGE FOR KIRA. IT HAS TO BE FOR KIRA CAUSE I HATE CHOCOLATE AND ANNA CAN'T EAT PEANUT BUTTER YET. HOPEFULLY IT TURNS OUT OK. SOMEONE COMMENT AND SAY WHETHER THEY WOULD LIKE THEM OR NOT. I HAD TO IMPROVISE A LOT. I MADE UP HALF MY OWN RECIPE AND USED TWO OTHERS AND COMBINED THEM ALL. (I HAD TO MAKE MARSHMALLOW CREAM FROM MARSHMALLOWS, WHICH NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO DO. I THINK IT WORKED OUT AWESOME, BUT WE WILL SEE WHEN SHE TASTES IT.
OH, ALSO, I TOOK A PICTURE OF ANNA BY THE CHRISTMAS TREE WE PUT UP YESTERDAY. SHE IS THE BEST! AND SHE TAKES ALMOST AS CUTE OF PICTURES AS HER MOTHER!
AND THERE IN THE END, I JUST GOT A LITTLE CRAZY WITH THE CAMERA.

So, yesterday I was having kind fo one of those blah days. Not a good feeling. I hate being blah. The cool thing about it? Kira knows! She is a genius. I mean, I have studied and studied and I know the best ways to get people out of blah days, I have heard everything that is statistically the best for the general population and all that. Well, its one thing to know, and I was thinking about it even, but it is a whole 'nother thing to actually put it all into effect. I guess all I needed was a little support in that vector.

That is why Kira is the coolest! I love her. As soon as i opened up about my blahness, she started plotting. Kira knew what I needed and she took care of it. She knew the exact therapy for me. I was sitting there, being blah and she came into the room and just said "What shorts do you work out in?" So, I told her, and she got my outfit together and sent me to the treadmill. I rocked it. It was awesome! She is so cool. Then, to cool down, I took a bath and steched. Now I am sore, and that is totally a good thing! Just what I needed! Thanks Kira! I love you!

MY GIRLS!

(Kira, you look so good in this picture!)
I was thinking today about all the things that I used to ask for in my prayers. The one thing that was always the most important to me was my family. I wanted to have an amazing wife. Beautiful, of course, and someone that loved me and supported me through everything that happens. And I always asked to make sure that I could be a good Dad, to raise my kids right, the way my parents did.

Well, the whole Dad thing will have to work its way out, but I wanted to talk about the first thing on my list.

I have been talking a lot lately with Kira about what we are going to be doing after I graduate in August and we are working to make a good decision. We know that everything will work out, but I am so appreciative to Kira for her great advice and especially her support, even when I seem so indecicive about some things. She really is great, to go into everything with me, never knowing what will happen with us. And she does so much to help me to get where I want to be. She gives up a lot for this little family, and I love her. And as for the beautiful part, just look at the picture. The Lord could not have blessed me with two more beautiful girls! They are both GORGEOUS! Thanks be to the Lord for my blessings! Life is great!

Have you ever read a book, and the thing that you wanted to happen at the end did not happen. Thats how this book was for me. However, I have decided that that is ok. Finally, Bella did not bug me throughout the entire book. Just part. Breaking Dawn was, by far, the best book of this series. Does that mean that something finally happened? Well, no. But the build up to nothing was much more enjoyable. In fact, had the other books of the series been written as well as this one, the lack of action might not have bothered me so badly throughout the series. Though I was slightly disappointed that the promised action was again skirted, I actually think that I like the way the book ended. I can't say that it was unexpected, because this is just exactly the kind of trick that Stephenie Meyer would pull, spending the entire book making me think that it will be a good "Guy" ending, and then tearing out the rug (AKA- nothing happens... again.) But I am very happy with the way things turned out for Bella. In fact, I think that in the end, I was cheering for her. Finally, Bella is no longer being a baby! Yay! If only there was a book five so that I could enjoy her maturity longer. I think I would like that.
