Our anniversary to the Oregon Coast

Here we are at the beach. We had a room on the second floor and this was our deck and our view. It rained the whole time, but still beautiful. We so enjoy it here. We spend most of our time in Astoria and Seaside, checking out thrift stores, antiques, and of course eating. We did get an "old time" photo (time era the 20's) how fun. Travis in a gangster outfit with a Tommy gun. As always time was cut short and we are back to reality. Preparing for Christmas and the Holidays.

One year later

Travis and I saved some of our cake and did the the disgusting tradition of taking a bite. I can't believe it has been a year already. It has been awesome as well as challenging with a blended family. I have struggle spiritually as well, but have been attending church regularly and visiting with my Bishop on a constant basis. I had a meeting last night and he feels that I am ready for full membership again. I had made choices that had me going through a repentance process, but he feels that I am faithful and ready again. I am so grateful for my Savior and his Atonement, that he really loves me.
