Our life!!

Ok so we have had a lot of drama in our life this last week, Josh's car decided it no longer wanted to live and gave out on the freeway on his way home from Ogden on friday night last week so I have been having to take him to and from work on top of me going all over the city to do my job (real awesome let me tell you!) We have been trying to get into a new car and found out we may not be able to because of somethings that really we cannot talk about! But we know that the lord will bless us and this is just a test. I just wish we wouldn't have to go through this. :( I hope things will get better for us soon.

Ok so....My gorgeous wife and I share this blog and I thought I would share whats been on my mind lately.

So my dear wife has been learning what it has been like to live a semi single life. I say that because not only have I been working ALOT but I have been out of town on work trips staying in hotels 3 days out of the week. Now, many of you may be thinking that I am crazy and I may be but I have been able to expand my horizons in this career. I have been able to become better at what I do. On the other hand, my dear sweetheart has been extremely sick lately and I am not there to take care of her. When I found out this week that I was heading out of town yet again, I wanted to scream. I couldn't tell my boss no otherwise I would have found myself looking for another job, so I agreed to do this business trip. Every minute that I am away from my love, I feel so far away from her. I honestly live for this woman. Now I am just rambling on and on but I want to get all this off my chest here and now.

Saturday August 13th, 2011 was the crowning moment of my life. This day I took the Love of my life by the hand and I became her husband for Time and all Eternity. Words cannot quite explain what it is I feel in my heart about that day. I honestly don't remember much but this one thing. I remember holding her hand ever so tightly and looking deep into her eyes and remember thinking to myself that not only was this meant to be, but this woman was going to be in my heart forever. I remember looking at her and on the verge of bursting into tears, I just winked at her and told her that I loved her. To make a long story short, I was just greatful to my Heavenly Father that I was given the opportunity to now be a husband for time and all eternity to his most precious and most beautiful daughter.

Mindy is the most kind and sweet person that I know. I can't think of a better person to spend eternity with. The day I met her was the day that I knew that I was to marry.....now i know alot of you may be thinking, "yeah...yeah, mushy.....mushy" but I honestly had a physical prompting telling me that Mindy Sue Marshall was to be my wife. Knowing exactly what it was will still remain a mystery to me.

My job that I have now as a Route Sales Representative for Schwans Home Food Service is a extremely stressful job. I say that because it is a very time consuming job. I am often out the door no later by 8 am and sometimes finding myself home as late as 11 pm or later. On the other hand, it has proven to be a blessing in disguise. I have seen myself drop some very unwanted weight. I think its currently at 15 or so lbs. I love the job that I have. I am just greatful to have a job. I am greatful that I have a job where I have fun but at the same time it allows me to provide for my little family. Yes I am away from home alot but the time that I spend with my sweetheart I cherish.

Ok so i am trying to figure out what to say on here because i have never done this before. Well.....here goes nothing.....

Lately I have been working an incredible amount and my body has definately been feeling it. On the flipside, it has allowed me to become more in shape and I have actually started to see the result from that hard work. I have recently started at Schwans Home Food Service. I am a Route Sales Representative. I LOVE my job! I am constantly on the move and always talking to people which i love. I can't think of a better job to be doing. I am usually gone most days beginning at 8 or 9 in the morning and sometimes not getting back until 10 or 11 at night. So it is a really long day but it is definately worth it. With me being gone all the time, I don't get to see my sweetheart as much as i would like to but it is a sacrifice I am willing to make for the better of our little family.

I have also been missing out on writing in my journal lately of the things that have been happening in my life. I used to be a lot better at doing that but I honestly do not have the time lately to do so. So much has been happening in my life lately that its hard to write all out, otherwise I would be writing a novel. The one thing that I can write about on here is of how I met my dear, gorgeous and smart bride Mindy Sue Marshall Memea......TO BE CONTINUED

New callings and Life!

Ok so I promised Joshua I would keep this up but I must say it is really hard to remember to write all the time, I try to think of things I can write but we are real boring :( So lets see since writing last week Josh has worked like crazy not getting home until sometimes midnight, I went up to Mill Hollow with my family for the day and I got called as the second counselor in young womens! I am super excited for this and hope I can help in the growing of our youth! We have been making a ton of sacrifices in our little family lately I am learning semi single living alone life and Josh is remembering what its like to not eat. We have been struggling so much but are excited because as of August 13th not only will we have made it to our one year mark but we will be married for all eternity from that point on. I keep hearing over and over again the words from a great man Elder Marshall saying: this is the things the lord asks of us if we just listen the we will receive great rewards. (love that kid) I hope I can be the type of leader that these young women need in life the kind that I had growing up that I still love and remember fondly.

My first post!

 Ok so this is my first post of this blog and I have to say I am not a journal kind of person so I hope I can keep this up. I have to have something to occupy my time while I sit at McDonalds watching my clients work. I am so excited for what the future holds for me and Josh and hope I can share what we have in store!
