home sweet home

I'm finally moved into the new house! (If you consider a packed suitcase and no furniture moved in ;)...I'm SO happy to be here! This house is beautiful, I feel like a wife!!!  It's also way more peaceful with no conflicting authorities in this house. Ahh it's just so nice...I really cannot help but praise the Lord for such a beautiful home! New home, new beginnings.

I finally got to see everyone at church today and that was so refreshing! It seems like it's been so long! I was gross, sick and coughing and blowing my nose everywhere. But so many people still attempted to hug me lol and that was nice! Lots of questions about the honeymoon, reminiscing about the wedding day, talking about babies, being startled by Mark coming out of nowhere yelling "YOU'RE MARRIED YOU'RE MARRIED! I READ YOUR BLOGS!!!" Hahaha so good! It's our last time in that tent! I'm just happy to know Kev and I came back married, had our last time in service there, and are moving to a new church building. New home! New church building! Perfect timing! But I feel better health wise, maybe it's the spiritual encouragement, I'm studying for NCLEX and Kevin and Zach are next to me talking about their homework, having something to do with John Frame & the image of God. Earlier they were laughing for like 20 minutes with their theological jokes. I seriously do not understand what they are talking about lol.


Kevin and Zach trying to deal with 8 different interpretations...look at how serious they are! You'd never guess they were dying from laughter a few minutes before!


Life is good! Even in being sick, God wanted me to remember how weak I am without him and how I need to depend on Him for sustenance! I got a complete smack in the face about how helpless I was, coming back as a wife and having to take care of my sick husband and myself. This experience makes me hesitant to pray for babies anytime soon because if it's hard just dealing with Kevin and myself, how much more tiny little babies? SCARY!!!!! 

It's so late! The laundry isn't ready yet, Zach and Kevin are still on point 2 of 100, and I'm still needing to study for NCLEX! Goodnight homies!

      Hahahhaha Mark...crazy man! There are a variety...let me see if I remember some...1) "upright" position, which Mormons usually hold, saying that since we are made in the image of God we can become gods ourselves later, 2) We have the ability to choose from right and wrong, 3) We have the ability to reason, 4) We are to have stewardship over the earth...

      Okay well I forgot the rest! You can ask Kevin or Zach!!

One Week Left

In exactly one week, Kevin has to decide where he will go for school...will it be Rochester, Miami, or UMass? He's still waitlisted at UMass so we aren't sure about that just yet, but we are actually visiting Rochester in a few days to see how we feel! His Miami trip was stressful to say the least. Evangeline had been sick the entire week beforehand, and Kevin even called the pediatrician to make sure it was okay to leave. The doc had been under the impression Evangeline was sick with strep throat, fever, and cold. But I felt like it was worse, and that it was progressing to become pneumonia. The doc gave Kevin the go, and once he landed in Miami, not only was Evangeline still sick, but Elianna got a 103 fever! It was a hot mess in our home. Both girls went to ER, Evangeline had gotten admitted and was in the hospital for five whole days due to bilateral pneumonia (which is the worst it's ever been!) Kevin was out of town for the first time ever, and it was just exhaustin...

This Is Us: Why It Hits Home

A little over two years ago, I was crying to my cousin because I had just found out I was suffering a miscarriage. Not only was it a miscarriage of a baby whom I was losing, but it was also the loss of a twin that Elianna would not grow up with. And when a person miscarries a twin early enough, the baby doesn't come out the way a typical miscarriage happens...the baby just gets reabsorbed into the mom and into the twin. "You should really watch This Is Us. The first episode is about a miscarriage too, except the character played by Mandy Moore loses a triplet." my cousin told me through her tears, as she comforted me since the wounds were so fresh. There are a lot of things within the show that I do not relate with: I never lost a dad to an unexpected death. I do not have an adoptive sibling or was adopted myself looking for a birth parent. I do not have an addiction to eating. But I could relate to miscarriage, and I do plan to adopt one day, so that's as far as ...

This is 30

I am 30. At midnight, while watching Parks and Rec (currently my favorite show-who else loves Ben & Andy?) Kevin decided to surprise me with Wicked tickets. I've been wanting to watch this musical for years! If that isn't a great way to start my 30th year, then I don't know what is! As the phone calls, bday texts, and social media comments come my way, I find myself reflecting on this past decade. God is so good! In my 20's, this is what happened in my life: I graduated UCSB with a political science degree. I cherished my time being in that university...most people think of UCSB as a party school (because it is) but for me, this is where God saved me, and I find it to be such a beautiful place where my life TRULY began. I moved back home in La Mirada and joined my church South Bay Christian Alliance Church (now named Pillar Bible Church). They say that you are like the people you surround yourself with, and there is truth in that statement. It was nice to be a...
