John, Me, John, Me

First off, happy birthday to my awesome husband. We spent his birthday in the mountains in the 68 degree weather. It was so nice and beautiful. We took Subway with us and had a little picnic, we then waited for the stars to appear and gazed at the stars a little bit. Eyrlin started crying because she was scared and we headed home. Coming off the mountain the phone rang and he was off to a plumbing call. Happy Birthday!

John has started a plumbing business with a friend of ours. Together they will be great and I can't wait to watch it grow. John has kept pretty busy with this business but he is not quite ready to quit his job. I can't wait till he can but I feel extremely blessed to still have a job.

John is still the cutest thing ever and I totally love this man.

I have had a very interesting month. My calling has me constantly doing administrative duties, which sometimes doesn't feel right. I feel like when you have a calling there is the spiritual aspect of it and the administrative things. I haven't yet felt the spiritual aspect of it but I will, once I know what I am doing, right? I have also felt very humbled this last month with the different challenges I have faced. I have found myself more emotional with spiritual things. I have always been the non-teary type but lately there has been no hiding it. I feel grateful for the obvious feelings I have had.

John and I went to girls camp this last week for bishops night and it was super neat to be there with the girls. I love the young women of our ward and find such joy in being around them. I know I am not alone when I say that I have had these thoughts after the release of my call. You know, did I do enough? Did I show these girls how important they are to their Father in Heaven? Do these young women feel secure in their relationship with their Savior? Are they preparing for the covenants they will be making in just a few short years? The list could go on and on. Although I will still worry from time to time, I did feel comforted by the testimonies they shared that night. These young women in the Elk Ridge ward are truly amazing and I feel so blessed to know them.

It's been a good month for the Tober's.
