This happened on August 15th, it is true, I am over the quarter of a century hump. It is still shocking to me to not be 19 anymore, haha, but I have learned a lot in the last decade. I had a few simple requests for my birthday that really emphasize my age.
I wanted to go on a date with my husband by ourselves.
I wanted to eat a lot of butter and cream and bread at Olive Garden.
I wanted a large chest freezer.
All three of my wishes were fulfilled.
The date was much needed, Olive Garden was fabulous, and the freezer is slowly filling up.
It has been a great year and I can finally say I am a true adult with our first ever mortgage!
I know I have a lot to look forward to and learn in the coming year as well.
All joking aside though, something that has really changed in me over the last year is my testimony of my Savior Jesus Christ. I have always had it,
but each year it is such a blessing to watch it grow as I nourish it.
I know that there are great things in store for me, but hard things as well. I also know that my Savior will be there with me every step of the way, through both the good and the hard.
I am so grateful for the beautiful family that I have been blessed with. My dear husband and sweet little girl Natalie. Living the Gospel of Jesus Christ brings so much sweetness and joy to life, that makes my cup runneth over.
Justin and Ruth Blazzard
