My reason for living

Well It's been 2 weeks since I have updated our family blog. A lot has been going on. Brendan and I finished out couples counseling with LDS family services this last week after 6 sessions. OUr counselor said he couldn't do anymore for us and reminded us of the things we learned through counseling. I have to say I think every married couple could at some time or another benefit from counseling. Especially if you are a family with any amount of distance separation. I learned a lot from counseling about myself and how to better communicate with my wonderful husband. I love him so dearly and pray for him evreryday that he can overcome the obstacles that are coming his way!

Okay now for the other updates. There are pictures here of the children at brendan's NG unit's Christmas party with santa. It was lots of fun, but it made me REALLY miss active duty. We hope you all have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year. Oh btw brendan is FINALLY registered fir classes next semester at ISU in Pocatello. He is getting his masters in counseling(go figure). I guess we all need to help others after we get helped!
