My wife a.k.a superwomen




This is the love of my life. We have been married for nearly a year (a year in march) and she still continues to amaze me daily. Right now she is attending ASU west and is finishing up her first year in her Elementary Ed. program. The program keeps her busy with not only homework but 10 intern hours per week. This piled on top of her 25 hr work week at Rainbow Play Systems and not to mention her nursery calling makes her a very proficient and busy women.

My Husband


This is my husband Robert if you haven't noticed already he is the brains behind this blog but we decided to introduce each other so this is one of the few times you will probably hear from me. Right now Robert is working towards his bachelors degree in Speech Hearing and Science and then will go on to get his masters in Speech Therapy and maybe his doctorates in Audiology (we'll see). He works at Direct Care Personal where he habilitates children with special needs. He is currently serving in the young men’s at our church. His job, schooling, calling, and wife keep him pretty busy. Robert is the most amazing husband. He cleans, never procrastinates, and he adores me. He has never said a mean word to me and actually he compliments me constantly, so I am living the dream life. Robert is kind hearted, he is on top of all his priesthood duties, I never have to remind him of FHE (sometimes he has to remind me!), he always remembers scripture study at the close of our day, he respects me and loves me and so much more! I don't know what I ever did with out him. I never knew married life could be so wonderful. It is amazing how your love for someone can grow so rapidly but it really has in this past year. This is a really exciting time in our lives, we have our whole future ahead of us and I am so thankful that I get to spend eternity with Robert by my side.

If you think it doesn't look like much now you should of saw it about two months ago. The outside remains unchanged but the inside we sure did a number on. All of the flooring in the trailer....I mean our home had to be taken out and redone and to save a couple bucks we, and when I say we I mean Becky, had to take it all out ourselves. I didn't know that Becky had a back round in construction, though I should of figured, but she sure did know what to do and when it had to be done. I thought that taking the flooring out was a difficult task, little did I know about the pain, excuse me, the painting that was in store, which of course had to be done before the new flooring was in. The "flip that house" project took about a month, probably a little over, to finish. But the solitude that we receive is, in comparison, nothing when looking back at the effort we put in. It has really turned into our dream come true.

 

This is our guest bedroom that is really a computer room for now, but Becky has great plans for it becoming a future nursery. I posted just the corner because I wanted to show off the lines that were a pain to make look good.
This is the guest bathroom, and I don't know how Becky chose the colors, but it came out pretty good I think.

This is our bedrrom, don't you love the strips. Word to the wise, if you'r wife ever gives you on option of either strips or say wall paper, opt for the wallpaper.







And this is our loud master bathroom

Well....where do I begin. The story of Becky and I is kind of unique, however, I will summarize it the best I can for everyone. When I first got off of my mission (Aug of 05) I worked construction then shortly thereafter I worked at the closest place that would hire me as possible because I had no ride. The place that finally took a chance on me was the neighborhood Frys and I worked in the meat dept. As I was saving up for a car I was also going to school, institute and I was the gospel doctrines teacher at church. Well I hoodwinked Becky into going to the institute every Wed. night to a swing dance class. That was the best I could do at the time because I had no car, then eventually I got a car, then the girl, then the ring and got her to say yes. From hello to yes took a year to accomplish and has since been my greatest feat yet.
