Nick and Sarah Thompson

2011-11-20T12:27:00.000-08:00

Today is November 20th...35 years ago today my parents were married. I love these two people with all my heart, they always have been and still are some of the best examples in my life.

This is Nick and I on our wedding day with my parents.

I think of the things they have accomplished in these 35 years

and cant wait to see where Nick and I are at in our lives on our 35th!

They have 6 children even though they welcomed many more people into our home that we could call brothers and sisters. With that they have 13 almost 14 grandchildren. I think the grandkids are now their favorite things in the world they are the best grandparents ever!!

Love you MOM and DAD but we all call them NANA and PAPA

Happy Anniversary

2011-11-07T18:41:00.000-08:00

Ok I am a little behind on my shows but I just caught up on Private Practice...well the episode "STEP ONE" I got a major kick out of it.

Don't mean to ruin it for anyone but Addison goes on fertility drugs I laughed so hard at her freak outs, I have said some of those same things ha ha watch it you may get a peek of what has been going on around here. The sudden spurts of anger and frustrations...Ya been there many times. Made me smile

I am sure many other women know how this is, I am sorry for all of you and your poor husbands. Nick and I have learned to laugh it off.

2011-10-16T10:54:00.000-07:00

Today Nick turns 27!! I made him breakfast in bed after I let him sleep in. He has been so tired hard worker and hunter. While we were eating breakfast he made a comment that he will be 30 in 3 years...I think he is a bit nervous, so I said why dont we come up with some things you want to accomplish before the big 3 0. He came up with 3
#1 go hunting/fishing in alaska wants to hunt moose or bear.
#2 wants a house with enough land that we can have a horse or two
#3 was to be a dad!
the last one made me smile, usually I am the only one really talking about this and he does not bring it up because...well how I am when a baby is brought up.
I hope we can do these or at least two! in the next three years.

This is my 5th birthday with Nick, I am so lucky he chose me to be his wife and to have these years together, dont know where I would be with out him.

Happy birthday honey I love you! ♥

I am loving this fall weather! The rain thunder and lightening take me back to our old house with the wrap around porch with friends watching the storms wrapped in a blanket. So here is me day dreaming of when days were simple and care free.

2011-08-26T09:39:00.000-07:00

Have not posted for a while, and have a lot on the mind it has been a long summer and an so sad to see it go we have had a lot of fun with family and friends, and now that the hunts have started our summer is pretty much done. Nick and I have gotten to get to know some new amazing people in the past year.
You never know how blessed you are till you hit rock bottom and you have so many people who jump in with support and love for you. Having a horrible day and it makes you feel good when you get a lot of text and calls from family and friends just to let you know they are there.

I am truly greatful for those wonderful people in our life who make horrible days just a little better.

2011-06-10T06:08:00.000-07:00

New with us, we are alive and here. : ) Sarah just started a new job and has really been enjoying it so far. Nick is still at the same place, we are both loving the few sunny days we get.
We have our garden planted and are changing a few things around the lawn really fun actually (if I have gloves on b/c once I touch a worm I am done) So that is our life if we are not at work or asleep we are out in the lawn or now is the time of year we can start going for canyon rides and actually enjoy them. Unfortunately we did not get to do our annual camping trip for memorial day due to the SNOW!! darn that white stuff. but we did yard work instead, I just love spending time with Nick. He always makes me laugh and the dogs well T just turned 8 the end of May and Zeek turned 2 the 6th of June.

Well that is about it hopefully we get lots of pictures and fun stories over the summer and can share till then looks like our summer is jam packed. Anyone else feel like that? Well that is our update for now

ENJOY YOUR SUMMER!!

2011-05-07T14:41:00.000-07:00

I have been thinking a lot about mothers lately.... with it being mothers day and I know many and with me wanting to become one so badly I notice so many things. I have many WONDERFUL mothers in my life. for example my mom, Nick's mom, my wonderful sisters and sister in laws. along with so many others

What examples I have in my life and there are so many! I am grateful that I have gotten to see them be mom's and know they are amazing at what they do. Never under estimate the love of a mother. I love my children and they are not even here yet. I went to the Temple a month or two ago and said a little prayer that my children would know how much I want them and love them! The feeling I got in return was awesome.

My hat goes out to all you MOM'S out there. You are awesome! To those who are like me and are not yet a mother, I believe our children are in heaven praising you and getting so excited to come meet you.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!

2011-03-23T20:27:00.000-07:00

I decided he was the man I would marry on October 24, 2006
He popped the question May 18th 2007 at third dam funny story... he can always make me smile : )
We got married August 10,2007
Bought and moved into our first home January 17, 2009

I have felt Lucky every day that he chose me to be his wife. He treats me so good and I couldnt ask for more.

2011-01-27T16:54:00.000-08:00

This year I have made a goal and I am doing it....thanks to my wonderful sister Emily and my awesome hubby Nick

I am running a 5K!!!

I know that is not a BIG deal to a lot of you but this is a journey for me I am thinking of doing a few.

I have been trying to improve my mile and from my first time to now I have shaved almost 2 minutes off a mile!

Every year I say I am going to loose weight...well I have decided thanks to the wonderful hormones that mess with my body every month and stress. I have decided to go for a goal that makes me feel good and I am doing something healthy and if I loose weight that will be a bonus so far this year I have lost almost 8 pounds so I feel good about it.

P.S.

Thank You to all of you who sent love and prayers to us for loosing a dear friend and pet. Nick has struggled but is doing awesome! His sweet sister bought him a keep sake so he will always have some of Lucky's ashes with him at all time. THANK YOU!!

Hope you all keep having an AWESOME 2011!!!

Lucky Thompson

2011-01-11T09:11:00.000-08:00

I have often joked about our dog Lucky, that he secretly hates me for stealing Nick.

My heart breaks as we are forced to have the "talk" to keep him on the earth (in pain) or to let him go and run in heaven. More so this is breaking my heart for two reasons. I am loosing a dog, who I never realized how attached I was till today. Second, I am watching the love of my life suffer from a broken heart. Nick loves this dog, they have been with eachother through everything. Nick has watched Lucky grow from a pup to an old pup.

Lucky wants to run and play and hunt so much. His body just wont allow him. His joints have been hurting him for a while, not only that but about 5 years ago Lucky fell out of Nick's truck (going less than 5MPH) he has been through many surgeries, and painful times. It wont be the same with out him around here.

A wonderful Lady named Leah told me the other day that there was a prophet that once said our pets will be with us in heaven. When I told Nick he actually SMILED (have not seen one in a few days) we talked about all the loved ones that would greet him up there along with all of Nicks other pets, and one of mine Chester (who we had to put down Aug of 08)

Lucky will forever be in our hearts, he will never be forgotten and always loved.

A part of our little family will be much missed.

Till we meet again in heaven Lucky boy.

2011-01-02T18:23:00.000-08:00

So I have for a long time always wanted a new vehicle but have not had that real LOVE for any one vehicle....till now I have fallen in love with the

Chevrolet Traverse!

I WANT ONE!!

Nick Likes it too so I may just get my way : ) but not for a little while ♥

till then I love that I actually have a dream car again.

2010-11-28T16:09:00.000-08:00

I ate way too much but it was soo good.

sorry the tree is sideways

Then saturday Nick and Kevin went out hunting they were successfull and Zeek was a help I love my boy ♥

The scars of life

2010-11-19T15:07:00.000-08:00

I was up at my mom's and she had this story I loved it and I am going to share it.....
      Some years ago, on a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks, and a shirt as he went. He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an Alligator was swimming toward the shore.
         His father working in the yard saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In utter fear he ran toward the water, yelling to his son as loudly as he could. Hearing his voice the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his father. It was too late. Just as he reached his father the alligator reached him. From the dock, the father grabbed his little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the father, but the father was much too passionate to let go.
         A farmer happened to drive by heard his screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the alligator. Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the vicious attack of the animal. and on his arms were deep scratched where his father's fingernails dug into his flesh in his effort to hang on to the son he loved. The newspaper reporter who interviewed the boy after the trauma, asked if he would show him his scars, the boy lifted his pant legs, and then with obvious pride he said to the reporter, "but look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms too. I have them because my dad wouldn't let go"
        You and I can identify with the little boy. We have scars, too. No not from an alligator but the scars of a painful past. some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret. But some wounds my friend are because God has refused to let go. In the midst of your struggle. He's been there holding on to you.
      The scripture teaches that god loves you. You are a child of god. He wants to protect you and provide for you in every way but sometimes we foolishly wade into dangerous situations, not knowing what lies ahead. the swimming hole of life is filled with peril- and we forget that the enemy is waiting to attack. that's when the tug-of-war begins- and if you have the scars of his love on your arms, be very very grateful. He did not and will not ever let go. God has blessed you, so that you can be a blessing to others. You just never know where a person is in his/her life and what they are going through. Never judge another person's scars, because you don't know how they got them.
Right now, someone needs to know that god loves them and you love them too-enough to not let them go!

I had tears when reading this...I have many scars, I am grateful for all of them.

one more quote... "Challenges are what makes life interesting; Overcoming them is what makes life meaningful."

I have had so many things go so wrong this whole week and past little bit...I am grateful for the angels in our life who have helped us so much and shown their love for us. Thank you! This is going to be one AWESOME Thanksgiving.

2010-11-05T17:17:00.000-07:00

I have LOVED having this little one join our family she is so beautiful...Little Lexi Loo.

we tried to get pictures of her little feet...she didnt like it and started to move maybe one day but it was fun practice

Now for the hunting pictures, we went up and only saw 5 does total and one spike moose he was pretty awesome. I thought so I snapped a few pictures

My friend Melissa said I had to put this up on here or facebook....I dont think as many will see it here and I think Nick purposely only brought this hat....I know I look like a mushroom head but I was NOT getting a ticket. Safety first!!

Then Nick on the very top of Mt. Logan......by the way the new road up there was very nice : )

The last day we just went to some places around where we live and it was so muddy this is what my feet looked like, I could barely walk.

No success but hunting with my hubby was so much fun, I really enjoyed doing what he loves. We had so much fun and laughed so much the one night I laughed so hard I was crying. I love my hubby and all he does for me and us, he treats me so good some days I ask myself how I became so lucky...Love you babe!

2010-10-20T18:53:00.000-07:00

I love fall....better get my fall pictures up before it is almost winter.

by the way this is a picture of my parents fire ring that Nick did. what an awesome job you cant really tell but the cement is colored and stamped.

Also some of my dad's birthday party it was a BLAST!!

We had so much fun playing minute to win it and laughing.

I love my family and I am so thankful for all of them and their spouses I am very lucky to have them all in my life....O wait and I cant forget that I have the cutest nieces and nephews ever!

Enjoy the rest of the fall season : )

Old friends and New ones

2010-10-06T17:21:00.000-07:00

In my life I have gotten to know a lot of people, some became my friends and others not so much.
I learned a lot from these people like

- sometimes people only pretend to be your friends, they have alterior motives.
- the ones who spend their time trying to put you down or make you look stupid, are only in this relationship to make them feel better, and friendship is just that but it goes both ways not just one.
- friends can come in many ways children, family, pretty much anyone.
- my best friend is my husband, I tell him everything and he is a dang good listener and knows exactly how to make me feel better.
- true friends love you on your good days AND your bad ones and knows how to tell the difference.
- true friends dont have to have the same opinion on everything, and respect eachother for that difference.

a quote I saw the other day and I LOVED it was
"You NEVER look good while trying to make others look bad"

I know there are days I need to be a better friend, but I am thankful for all of them who love me for not being perfect and accepting that I am human.

2010-09-28T10:19:00.000-07:00

Fall is in the air and we love it!!

I love the feeling of fall, when you start to get excited for what is comming. The cozy warmth of a blanket you now have to use and the TV shows that are all starting : ) I cant wait to have kids and buy them school supplies and go school shopping...I really miss this.

Nick LOVES this time of year it is his favorite he has been so happy the past little bit. I learn more about my hubby every year. I just wish fall would last a little longer, I am excited for winter this year dont get me wrong but I just want it to last a little longer.

Nick will be turning 26 next month time has really gone fast....the other day we were talking/remembering our conversation when we were first married about when Nick turnes 25 and me 21 where we would be. We are not exactly what we dreamed, but I love where we are.

Well the next few months are always our crazy months, so much going on almost everyweekend is full but cant wait I love being around family I love get togethers and the happy times it brings may the rest of the year be safe, happy and loving for the rest of you!

"Find the compensatory blessings in your life when, in the wisdom of the Lord. He deprives you of something you very much want....Challenges are growth experiences, temporary scenes to be played out on the backround of a pleasant life....Remember you are on a journey to exaltation. Sometimes you have experiences that yield more happiness than others, but it all has purpose with the Lord" ....Richard G Scott

My brother and his wife have adopted a beautiful baby girl

Lexi Oniya Owen......

We welcome her with open arms....she is truly an Angel! ♥

A Prayer answered.

I hope she has connections and can send for a few more cousins soon ♥

p.s Thank you Amy for the quote, and the love and the love and prayers form everyone : )

Last night when I was cooking dinner, I told Nick I cant wait to be a stay at home mom to cook and clean and take care of my little family, and that I loved feeling domestic, so Nick starts calling me domesticated mrs boss. What a dork! but I love him.

I made many goals at the begining of this year and some I have done very well at others well I kinda forgot they were there. One was to be more loving, and positive. I hope I have done good at this I feel I have done better but not where I want to be. I want to be one of those women who can smile and stay positive through everything...I really hope I learn their secret one day....

One day I will be....tall, skinny, smart and know exactly what to say people from all over will ask My secrets and I will cook amazing keep an outstanding house, and be loved and adored by everyone.........One day ha ha

Till then I will be happy being me and trying and learning to be better than I was yesterday....That is my goal each day. well I love you all ♥ ♥ ♥

2010-08-24T10:11:00.000-07:00

I love my camera and I love taking pictures.....I am starting to do family pictures they wont be professional but I figure you have to start somewhere. so here are some of my pictures of people and of nature.

I have many more.....I really do love taking pictures so if you are willing to let me practice on you let me know I will only charge $5 for each cd I have to use.

I am only doing this for the first few then I will start charging more, so let me know : )

2010-08-10T20:34:00.000-07:00

Nick and I have now been married for 3 YEARS!!

I have honestly loved being married to this man, through the highs, lows, happy and sad.

I have been very blessed, I am reminded everyday how blessed I truly am. I married one of the best men I have ever known, I also married into an AMAZING family I know I say it all the time but I really have! I have awesome in-laws!

Nick has amazing patience (with me he has needed it) Love and understanding. Thanks for being in my life the past 4 + years and being my husband for the past 3. I ♥ You!

2010-08-04T19:27:00.000-07:00

I have been teased how such small things make me so happy and Excited. Just to name a few to try and understand me

Last christmas we went to Lisa and Scotts to open presents. we opened a few and they were great gifts then Nick started to open one I saw what it was and SCREAMED with excitement of course I think I scared my poor mother in law and step father in law to death then the laughing started because Nick had just opened 4 items of rubbermaid tupperware. yes I know I am a Loser, I think now they know they dont have to spend a lot to please me. they gave me a few things and that is the only one I remember because I LOVED them.

Well my mom just gave us a dresser (we have never had one in our married life) I have loved it we brought it home I filled it with clothes and I smile everytime I see it. Yet again made my day it is an older one and does not match anything but I LOVE it!

Nick says it is hard to find me stuff for my birthday, this year he said he did horrible. . . . Well for one he became my eternal companion, next he let me throw a party, that is all I wanted we even had a piniata.

Things people find dumb I love, I just canned 36 jars of green beans and yet again I am so excited and when I hear the lids pop it puts a grin on my face.

I guess a good point to all of this is no one will have to spend a lot, do a lot or give a lot to make me happy. Just be warned I may get over excited and scream so maybe I should give you all earplugs ha ha : )

2010-07-23T10:44:00.000-07:00

I know I just barely updated but I got some of the pictures back from our day at the temple and I wanted to share. Since this was probaby one of the best days of my LIFE!!

These are just some of my favorites!!

Thanks again to all who were there to share that special day with us,

and to all our family and friends that gave us that extra support and strength

we truly Love you all!!

2010-07-14T08:26:00.000-07:00

One year ago today our family said goodbye to one of the best men I have ever met, Grandpa Vance.

Amazing things have happened in the past year that I am sure he had his hand in. I have felt him with me a few times, right after he passed when Nick called and told me he was there he surrounded me and I knew he was happy and running around to his whole family again, then when Nick was ordaned an Elder grandpa was sitting next to me. The most recent was the temple he came and he brought my children (most amazing feeling I have ever felt)
I am thankful that he stuck around long enough for me to get to know him, and I have been told that I only saw him sick too that he was one of the most outgoing grandpa's ever. I cant wait to see that again, or him.

Love you grandpa, we miss you like crazy. Please take good care of my little ones ok. but you do know you can send them right on down any time. Thanks for the lessons learned, the fun we had and the joy we felt.

been a couple weeks but who is complaining

2010-07-13T18:02:00.000-07:00

We have been busy, FYI the temple was AMAZING all I could as for and more : ) I cant believe how fast summer has been going. Makes me kinda sad, I love summer and I wish there was time to slow down but pretty much every weekend is booked and then once that is over the hunts start.

I will post pictures from our temple day and 4th of July when I get a chance.

PS. thanks for all of the LOVE and support from our families and friends.......I dont think any of you realize how much you mean to us : )

Happy Birthday Grandpa Vance!

2010-07-01T12:44:00.000-07:00

One of the best and sweetest men I have ever gotten a chance to know would have been 89 today. I have been playing some of my most favorite memories through my head today of us and him.

Nick and I are getting sealed tomorrow, so I cant help but think of the moment that sealed te deal with me deciding I was going to marry Nick.

October of 2006, I had gotten a call from Nick to see if I would go down to the hospital to say goodbye to his grandpa, I went as support....little did I know I was about to meet some of the BEST people ever. We went in and said goodbye he was on life support and not doing very well.....a few days later I got another phone call from Nick asking if I would come meet his grandpa, he had woken up and was doing really good. On our way down we got in an accident so we were late getting there and only a few members of the family were there. I sat outside letting the family get there time while sitting there I can hear him talk about his trip to heaven and his trip to hell, he said that he knew there were some things he needed to do before he went home again. Then he turned to Nick who was barely in the door and asked where this "pretty little brunet was that he was suppose to meet" Nick pulled me in, grandpa took my hand and had me kiss his forhead, and said " I am suppose to watch him [pointing to Nick] get married. Grandpa then told me he loved me and I said it back and ment it wow after a total of 5 minutes around this man I truly LOVED him.

I had always had strong feelings for Nick and I knew I loved him but that night something clicked and I knew. At the time I was only 17.....I use to tell Nick to never bring it up till I was atleast in my 20's because I was not going to get married till I was 23. ha ha Ya WOW that did not happen.

My father in law spent a lot of time over at grandpa's and we lived about 2 blocks away I got the chance to make him some dinners and breakfasts and dip into his peanut chocolate clusters with him a few times. I love those moments and will never forget.

One night late I stood up and grandpa stopped me and put his hand on my stomach....then said no no baby yet, but one day you will have some beautiful and handsome children then pointed to Nick and said and he will be one hell of a dad. I know grandpa is up with my children right now, I hope even just one comes and is just like him. but I really wish he would make his lessons a little shorter so I could have one of them right now. ha ha I can only imagine that their first word to learn from him would be damn. ha ha that is not a swear word in the Thompson family...Grandpa I love you, cant wait to meet with you again. I hope you know you are welcome tomorrow I know you will be there and you would not miss it for the world. thanks for the lessons and the love you gave me and Nick.

Simple and Sweet

2010-06-28T21:15:00.000-07:00

2010-06-22T08:04:00.000-07:00

This past Sunday [also fathers day] Nick was ordaned to an Elder. We were very excited about this, we let all our family know.

I was so proud that we actually had people standing in the room because there was so much family there. Scott, Nick's dad was able to do the ordaning and it was very special. He said that was the best fathers day gift EVER!

I am so thankful for Nick and all we have accomplished together, and how much we have grown. It was amazing that when Scott started the blessing I felt a few extra people there. I have no doubt that grandpa Thompson was in the chair right next to me and my other grandpa was there too along with nick's. I love that I know and believe in Eternal Families, cant wait a few more days and Nick and I will be Eternal companions : )

Thanks again to the family that came I know not all could come Holidays are hard sorry, we hope to see you all sometime on the 2nd again another holiday weekend and hard to get work off but hope to see you anytime it will be great love you all!

So close!

2010-06-13T16:37:00.000-07:00

We are getting down there on our count down to the temple! Nick will become an elder a week from today! Then we officially start the recomend process. We cannot wait, we talk about it all the time and both get butterflies.
I am so lucky to have the husband I do. He takes such good care of me : ) Soon he will be my ETERNAL companion. It is so awesome to say that cant wait till "will be" becomes "is" he is such an example to me. It has been amazing to see the change in him in the past few months, he even accepted a calling! It is with me teaching what was 4 children now3 children in primary. I do enjoy that calling and so does Nick.
Today he had to laugh a little when the boys in the second row were singing/yelling so loudly the song. They get sooo excited. I LOVE children!! Primary I think is the place for me

Well I just cant wait and had not updated in a while. It is official 19 days! cant wait, I think I will just have to keep singing "I love to see the Temple" just a few more days!! : ) well love you all and hope you are having a FANTASTIC summer

I ♥ my GARDEN!!

2010-06-05T14:58:00.000-07:00

I have loved the house we bought it is small and old but ya know what it fits, and this time of year we dont need a big house, we spend a lot of our time outside. One of my goals for this wonderful year of 2010 is to get my food storage up! How do I plan on doing this? My garden, we planted corn, peas, beans, squash, tomatoes and a few peppers. I can't wait till we can pick them and get them canning or frozen.

My wonderful PEAS!

BEANS BEANS BEANS

Our corn did not come in very well so we replanted.

Our tomatoes look good don't know if you can really see them that well.

Nick does so good to keep it looking AMAZING!! We think a garden must be team work but he does do most of it ha ha

Also our puppy Zeek is turning 1 tomorrow. I love my puppy, we have gotten so many compliments on him and how he is such a calm well behaved dog, to be honest he is but that is not really our doing he is just a GOOD dog.

Love You ZEEKER

Where we have been and Where will we go?

2010-05-26T19:23:00.000-07:00

I got the chance the past few days to spend time with one of my BEST friends. I love hanging out with her because she uplifts me and we have a lot of fun. We talk about how wonderful our husbands are and how we appreciate our moms. We talk about so many things and one is what we have learned/changed from dating to just married to now. I know I have only been married almost 3 years but I have had to learn, grow, and change some of my ways, of doing things and thinking.

I actually remember thinking that being married would change my stress levels and make things calmer. If you are laughing right now that is ok. I think it is pretty funny now too.
I remember thinking things would be so happy and "Lovey Dovey" all the time.......Ya you can laugh now too.
I can remember when I thought we would never fight to the point of one wanting to get in the car and drive away.
I remember thinking we would have the PERFECT house, cars, clothes, pretty much everything.

I hope I am not the only one who thought these things. The past 3 years I have learned SO much.
Stress will always be there but instead of being on just my shoulders I now share it with a strong man.
"Lovey Dovey" moments dont happen all the time but makes me appreciate them when they do.
Getting mad and getting space to clear your head is just fine as long as you can always return and talk out your diffrences.
Shopping and apperance takes a back burner to bills and getting out of debt so you can lower your stress levels and other benifits.

I do love my husband and would never take back getting married so young or our choices together. I love how much we have grown and how far we have come. I cant wait to see where we will be in 10 or 20 years. Hard times come and I am sure harder are sure to come. I am so glad that I am married to a man that understands me and all my little as he would say "nerdy" things and him and his "weird" things, Now I love those things.

I love comming around the corner and he tries to hide that he is eating the peanutbutter out of the jar, and his silly little grin when he does something funny or that he shouldnt have. I love most of all that he understands me and that I am completely flawd and still loves me. Yes I do love my husband, I am IN love with him.♥

Our Sunday Canyon Rides

2010-05-17T18:25:00.000-07:00

This past sunday after church we decided to go up the canyon [our second home] we usually take up the guns and shoot a little and walk around a litte and let the dogs run. One of our favorite spots were CLOSED! Hope they open soon so we can go pick out a camping spot. It was a BEAUTIFUL day. I love our canyon rides since three years ago tomorrow Nick asked me to marry him in that canyon. THREE years!!!! wow time goes by fast when you are having fun!

On the note of Nick and I, I want to say I absolutely Love my husband. I am so lucky to have the man I have. I LOVE this Faithful, Loyal, Loving man! He is one of the hardest working men I have EVER met. I know he would never let us go without. He is always complimented on his work ethics. I am so glad that I will have him for eternity. There is NO other man I would rather have with me: ) I count my blessings everyday!

Starting the process

2010-05-13T19:50:00.000-07:00

I have started the process of becoming healthy again. I started by walking a mile a night and I have STOPPED drinking pop......can you say HEADACHE!! Nick did bring me home one can of diet coke. I only drank half. For those who know me that is a MAJOR accomplishment. For those that dont picture this 6 liter of diet pepsi in 4 days that was just at work, not including the 1 liter I drank at home. Ya very sad, I know!

Next week it will be jog a mile, and cutting back on sweets. Slowly I will make my way back. I have to fit into my wedding dress again in July. I am just excited to be healthy again. I have made myself challenges but only a week at a time, I do better that way than to change EVERYTHING all at ONCE. Wish me luck and let me know if you want to join the challenge : ) cant wait.

Good news......hope soon more to come

2010-05-10T20:42:00.000-07:00

Nick and I went to the doctor, I feel really good about it. He made us a little bit more positive about us getting a baby on the way. We checked on my PCOS and the cysts are very small and he says it wont cause major problems. We are crossing our fingers that with the things that are set in place that we will have little one on the way sometime this year. [I hope]

Also I had someone tell me I should not tell people that I have PCOS, FYI this is not an STD, 40% of women/girls have this and never know it after talking to my dr.We now know I have had this since I was about 9. People need to know so no I am not ashamed it is like being diabetic. Be aware ask your doctor if you have questions it answered a lot of mine, at least I know what some of our problems are. [I hope that is it] Most likely someone in your family will or does have this.

I hope soon we will have something to celebrate, and announce. Till then I will cross my fingers and say my prayers. :)

Am I Normal at all??

2010-05-04T21:03:00.000-07:00

We have been trying for a baby no surprise to anyone who knows us, I normally do really good [you can ask Nick] but every once in a while I have a hard time wondering if it will ever happen to me. I pray every day month so on and so on, just for the hope of getting a little plus sign on a test.

I have a Love/ Hate relationship with fast sundays, I love hearing of faith and I know this is just a trial, but when there is a baby blessing I want to run out screaming! Last sunday the baby that was being blessed started to cry and It really got to me that I want a baby so bad that I want to hear my own baby CRY. As I start to cry I then feel stupid. Nick does not even look at me now or ask what is wrong he knows.

Am I pathetic? I get questioned all the time why I want a baby so young. I may sound dumb but ever since I can remember I always wanted to be a mom, I want to hold my child in my arms and teach, love and care for it. Yes I am only 20 almost 21, but I want this so bad, I guess I will keep praying, fasting, and trying of course [TMI I know ha ha] One day I know I will get this blessing but I hope it is ok not to be patient all the time, and beg the rest of the time.

The things we do in spring

2010-04-25T16:25:00.000-07:00

We are very much enjoying the spring weather. We are already planting our garden, having cookouts and enjoying our yard, Nick has already gotten to work on our yard to make sure it looks GREAT on July 2 for our cookout celebration![after we are sealed!]

I also love seeing the flowers bloom and my trees starting to get buds. So So exciting cant wait for summer and what it is going to bring us this year!

Food and Water

2010-04-15T08:59:00.000-07:00

At our stake confrence we were challenged by our stake president to get atleast 1 week supply of food and water. With all the earthquakes[about 1-2 a month] It makes me nervous. so we have been saving our bottles and filling them. Then last night we went and stocked up on more food storage love caselot sales. this is only some of our food and water storage, but I need more shelves and I need to get my but canning. This summers canning list

Chicken
tomatoes
beans
salsa[if someone will teach me]
relish
and freezer corn.

I have Amazing mentours to teach me all of this, I have learned a lot from my mom and my aunt Cindy. I cant wait to get more shelves in my garage for my storage, next step Nick wants to make sure that they are somewhat safe incase of an earthquake. latches on the doors is what I think we are doing, but I cant wait and when I have my big camera back from nick's car I will take more and and end result nothing makes me feel better than to look at my food storage and feel prepared. 72 hour kits too got to get mine up to date and add a little more.

Life after death.

2010-04-04T11:43:00.000-07:00

Last year our family lost two important people. The past many years we have all lost someone, I have one grandfather who died when I was only 18 months old. or something like that. Listening to President Monson talk today in conference made me a bit teary eyed. I will see them again! What an AmAzInG!! thing.
I once heard of a woman who believed nothing happened to you once you died, that was the end, you will never see them again. This broke my heart, I think it would have been hard to live this way.

Grandpa Thompson and Grandma Betty two important people in our lives who passed away in 2009. I look forward to the day when I get to see you again. In the meantime please take care of mine and Nick's children, teach them all you know, grandpa teach them how to have your Love. Grandma Betty had many talents and I hope my children learn them. I know they will not remember while on the earth but one day they will see you again also. We love you both.

I also have the most amazing love for the man who made this possible. A great man who died on a cross for EVERYONE then was resurected. I dont think there is enough ways to say thankyou!!

Pre Easter weekend Post!

2010-04-02T17:07:00.001-07:00

Nick and I are having a full weekend for Easter, I am so excited to see my family! and to see all the nieces and nephews. I love them so much, maybe because they are children and I want some I dont know but I still think they are cute here are some pictures of how cute they are I dont have pictures of all so a few wont be here but I plan on taking pictures like crazy this weekend and by then I hope I will have some of all

I am missing 3 Kierstin Jake and Austin. They are all fun. I think we need a few more boys to even it out. maybe one day Nick and I will be blessed with twin boys. I would just love that!! well I cant wait for the weekend to begin!! YAY!! hope you all have a great easter and confrence weekend!!

??My question post??

2010-03-31T15:12:00.000-07:00

Have you ever been so over joyed by something. Then there has to be that one person that tries to break you? Why do people do this? I often wonder what has happened to them to make their hearts so hard? Are they bitter or just plain sad??

Why do you always hear stories of family and close friends hurting other family and close friends? Why is it so easy to harm/hurt/betray family and friends, but we strive to please all around us who really dont care about us? They can throw us aside and we are so heart broken.

I am just as guilty for doing these things as the next person. One thing I have learned is when my heart is full of sorrow I cant stand to see others happy. My example is I have wanted to be a mom since ever I can remember, and I see all these women getting pregnant, some younger and some who can get pregnant in a snap. Then there is some who have the same trials as me. Why do I feel anger towards these women [fertility] instead of commpassion on those just like me? Let me clarify that I do not hate these women I hate their ability of what they are able to do but my anger shows to them. I am sorry for who I have offended.

I also have been on the other end, I can feel the anger/ hatred/ and dislike towards me. I can deal with it when it is not someone I really know but family? close friends? Loved ones? I am seeing that satan has his grip on the family unit. This makes me sad, it only takes one person in a family to break the chain.

I guess I will just have to pray a little harder, be a little better and love a little more.

Families are Eternal

2010-03-30T12:25:00.000-07:00

I have been waiting for the day that I can have a sign in our home that says "families are Eternal" or something like that I always felt like we cant have one of those till it speaks true for this family, well July 2nd 2010. Nick and I will finally be an eternal companionship.

I cannot wait only 94 days from today we will continue to count down Cant wait. : )

What has been keeping us busy

2010-03-29T08:40:00.000-07:00

Some of our new addictions are NCIS CRIMINAL MINDS and THE BOOK OF MORMON.

The other night Nick insisted that the dogs should come and watch the movies with us. Me not wanting them on my carpet [let alone in my house] so before I would let them in our carpet had to be covered so we got all our old sheets and blankets and had a party with the dogs. When Nick fell asleep Zeek decided to wake him up but then they ended up just cuddling.

I love my family, Nick is the best husband I could ever ask for I absolutely LOVE him.

Making our way.

2010-03-26T05:56:00.000-07:00

As our family and friends may know Nick and I have made the choice to be sealed for time and all eternity in the LDS Temple. We have had to change many things in our life style, and our home. We will be going through in July we are shooting for July 2nd but for sure in July.

* pay tithing. That is not so easy 10% of your income, writing out that first check wondering how on earth we are going to servive. We always do, and we feel the blessings of this.

* Regular church attentdence. For me this is not so easy our church is at 9 I am not a morning person. but we have made it every week. I Love sundays now to go and be spiritually fed and to gain more friends and a testimony are some of the best feelings We have experienced.

* Scripture Study- I have been reading outloud to Nick (he tried once and read about 3 verses and his head hurt so bad from the small words, he needs glasses ha ha)It is amazing how much we learn from the book of mormon.

Nick and I were told the other day by a family member who did not know we were making these changes "I dont know what it is but you guys seem so happy, more like a joy I can see it on your faces," Then we told them about our plans. I love the gospel I really do! We cant wait to be as we say it at our house "finally married to you" I am even more excited that soon the priesthood will reside in our home, I have the greatest husband, he is truly my best friend and I love our late night talks about what we just read or our journey and life.

Ok Ok i will stop rambling on I am just greatful and wanted to share.

Does this look normal to you??

2010-03-23T06:18:00.000-07:00

Last night we got home and while I was cooking dinner, Nick went out to feed the dogs and chickens and collect the eggs. He came in with both hands behind his back and said look at the size of this egg. He handed me a normal sized egg, I looked at him and said ya and..? Then he pulled out this huge egg, that thing looked huge so this is a picture of our awkward sized eggs.

I took it with my phone on my camera so it is not the greatest picture but thought it would get the point.

A weekend with my Sir Nicholas

2010-03-22T09:25:00.000-07:00

I absolutely love my husband, he shocks me when he starts being a dork. this was only a few pictures that he would let me get. He does not like people knowing he is a dork or even talks sometimes ha ha love you honey!

I have a very quiet husband Yes we are complete opposites, but it works for us. A lot of family mine and his thinks he never talks, ha ha I say. Durring the middle of the day we dont really have conversations just sound bits of " love you chicken butt" or " Sarah.....What?......STINKS!!" he loves to say things that make me laugh then does this huge grin with his eyes squinting. I just love him. He loves to play jokes, I have gotten use to this since he got this form his father who I work for.

On sundays heading in for church he always says your slip is showing weather I have one on or not. sometimes I actually have to turn and try and see just in case and this makes nick say " made you look he he" I just Love my hubby he is truly my best friend!!

What will Spring Bring?

2010-03-15T06:27:00.000-07:00

The past few months, I have Changed how I decorate my home. I felt clostrophobic with all these little items all over and on my counter tops and in my living room. I had to take them all down and put them in a box. I would say I Simplified my life. Less clutter the better!

With this Nick and I have realized we want to change some areas of our home. We have only been in our home 1 year and 2 months almost to the day and painted once when we moved in but it all is going to change! Over time the bathroom, livingroom, hallway, kitchen, and the room we call the "blue room" will all look a little different! A little Paint, tile, new countertops and curtains you know the drill all the fun stuff.

I will be posting pictures, of before and after this will take a while since we are only going to do one room at a time and may take us a while to get it all completed. I cant wait, o ya and we are changing a little in our garage and shed to make more storage space and space efficient. Then more food storage and other items can fit so we can have even less clutter O I just LOVE it and cant wait.

Spring....... are you here yet.

2010-03-03T07:32:00.000-08:00

The sun has visited our house! We can see Grass in half of our back yard!!! I am so excited and cannot wait to get outside. I have been getting my spring cleaning done inside so that we can spend as much time out side as possible. In a month (or two) our yard will look like this again.

Nick is the man with the green thumb. I just help weed, this year I am going to attempt to mow the lawn. Yes I have been spoiled and have not had to mow the lawn yet since we have lived here, and that has been 1 year and 1 month and about 2 weeks. Being a Home owner is the best we have our own lawn you can do what ever you want you can stay up and jump around all night (if you wanted to) and you can paint,nail,change anything you want.

I love our fire pit! In the summer, our friends and family know to not even come to our front door they just walk right on back to the back yard, because we will be there. summer nights we usually build a fire and just sit and talk just the two of us. I just love it. Here is a picture taken at nick's birthday party all of us by the fire. This is in October so just picture us all with out the hoods and the look on our faces that we are all FREEZING!

I cant wait to get out there this summer! Now if it can just come a little sooner.

Some things I am Greatful for

2010-02-23T07:55:00.000-08:00

I know life is not always easy and has its inperfections, but I choose to see the good part and focus on this. So I challenge you to do the same think, focus and dwell on the things that are good, happy and uplifting in your life and be greatful. Here are SOME of the things i am greatful for.

* A Wonderful Husband, who is my best friend, when things get hard and people around you dont want you to be as happy as you are, he always says "Sarah those things dont matter us is what does, ignore it and dont let them bother you" yes i do love my husband.

* That Nick and I both have jobs, that we can have and enjoy the things that we do. (and insurance is a BIG Plus!!)

* Our Home! I like to call it "HOME" because it is our place of confort and love. Being a home OWNER is the best!!

* My family! I have one of the MOST AMAZING mom! She is the one I call for comfort and peace, I have some pretty cool siblings and nieces and nephews. Nick's family has been so good to us. We love them all VERY much!

* Our Religion, Nick and I were talking the other night, (one of our late night conversations) about how you can notice a difference in our Happiness since you are doing things that have a purpose, and the people are amazing. We have an awesome and welcoming ward who have helped us in many ways they are our second family!

* Our talents, Nick as my mom would say is the gentle giant, meaning he is so gentle in all he does and he is a giant in a way that he does not speak he listens but when he does everyone listenes, he loves being a peacemaker. My talent is Laughing and in our home I see myself as a homemaker, and I hope people feel loved and comfortable in our Home.

* Our neighbors, they are our second family and are so good to us they teach us a lot and We love them.

Each day I am going to think of different things I am greatful for I challenge you to do the same. They can be simple little things but if they are good and you see them they will bless you I promise.

Blessings More Than Enough to Count

2010-02-16T06:32:00.000-08:00

The Past three years i have been married to the BEST man i could ever ask for. The past years have not been easy last year we had many trials and sorrows in our life. This year we wanted to step it up and make it the best year ever. I am so HAPPY to say that we will be..... are you ready for this...... in my words i say " I am finally going to be married to my husband!?!" ha ha yes Nick has decided that he wants me as his eternal Wife!! I feel so lucky and blessed.

I have also been talking to some friends of mine who are having trials with devorce and heartache. I came home one night last week shaking because i was so upset and crying. Nick knew I needed to vent (after he asked if i was mad at him :)) I had told him about what i was told and i cried and cried. The next day i talked to one of my friends and she had gone and gotten a blessing, she looked and seemed much better. and to my friends who at this time felt so alone I said and i know that they will always have the Best Most Supportive and Loving man with them 24/7 our heavenly father. That brought me comfort. and i think it helped them.

My Mom is one of my best friends. I called her to vent that same night. I was so full of anger and sadness and she asked me to pray, and to do something to bring the spirit in. I opened my scriptures, they fell open yes i love stories like this but they fell open to John 14:18 it says "I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you." I got a very good feeling that to all of us he will come to us if he is not there already. I am so thankful that I know the truth and that I know that He is there, here and always will be and he died so that when we or anyone else does something wrong they can make it right.

I have a LOT to learn, and I look forward to it. some of my other blessings are my family. being the youngest I have grown up watching my siblings and I still do. I dont think they know how much i love them and how much i have learned from them and their spouces. I am greatful for my family. Nick and I are blessed. His family is awesome. He has some of the best aunts ever. I love learning talents they have and they are all talented in their own ways. I Love being a "Thompson" Honestly when i think of the Entire Thompson family three words come to mind LOVE LAUGHTER and CHARITY. Nick has a wonderful father who I Love, he is a lot like Nick, you dont hear them talk bad about anyone, they live life simple and i love that his Mom is sweet, i do blame her for me gaining weight.... ha ha jk but she does like to cook and she does like to send food home with you EVERY time you see her ha ha. she has a big heart and cares a lot about us and that is a good feeling. His sister and her family are fun all her kids are very talented and she has the ability to laugh ALL the time angie is rarely seen with out a smile. Scott his step dad is very helpful, nick knows if you need help with something or dont know quite sure what is what you can call scott.

Those are just some of the Blessings in our life. We hope we get one more that will take some time getting here, hopefully this is the year? I am going to be better at counting my blessings!

Life and its happenings.

2010-02-02T06:25:00.000-08:00

In the next little bit i will be returning to one of my old jobs for a short period of time to assist with the valentines day madness!! I am so excited, i want to take pictures and post them, another fun part is i will be working with my mom kinda but i will see her more, that is always a plus.

The snow can officially stop nick and i, yes we do it together pushed snow 4 times on sunday. and we do our neighbors also, feels good to do service and get out together. I talk a lot about my husband i know but really i LOVE him. through all our trials and hard time and spending the last 3 years together has been so much fun i get to see another part of him that i dont think anyone else does he is very different when he is home than anywhere else. i love that! also i want to fill my heart with love and the more i talk about it the more i feel it. Trying more and more to have the ability that our dear grandpa had, he loved everyone.

Blessings: this past year we have returned to church, we had a hard year last year so this year i have decided to give all i can to my callings, and do other things we know we should and we have felt many blessings. i love being in achievement days, the girls are so much fun and i love the leaders i am put in with. we have a lot of fun, and i have to be honest visiting teaching was always awkward for me. now i love it. i look forward to it. i love the ladys i go to and i go with a lady named Brook she is so cute and a very good mom, and wife i cant wait to do more with the ladys of my ward they are fun and full of love. it is always good when you are in a good ward.

that is about it i will post more with pictures about valentines day and try and be better.

A Weekend Up at My Mommy's!!

2009-11-12T11:11:00.000-08:00

This past week i have been drying apples with my mommy. i went up friday and did another batch so we could do some saturday morning. Friday night Kevin and Amy came up with the girls and Dylan got to come stay at nana's while matt and Em went on a date. we had a blast. i cleaned my mom's kitchen i have been on this clutter click lately, LOVE IT!! Later that night we all sat down and watched finding nemo to try and give cars a break. well kevin was on the ground with brooklyn and all of a sudden Dylan started to FREAKOUT! in a cute way there was a trac-a-tor on kevin's shirt.

he made us all go look, at the "back-o" i think is how he says it. i thought it was "pac ho" but i heard wrong. he does know his tractors. he would not let kevin roll over, he would put all his weight on him to push him down and at one point brooklyn tried to cuddle with her daddy and she put her head on the shirt and dylan would not have it. finally kevin just took off the shirt and dylan went around showing everyone. he is the cutest kid ever!!

then the next morning me and the girls put up "nana's" tree. we had christmas music a blasting... at 7:30 in the morning(sorry Amy) but it looked very pretty.

also it was grandma Owen's 80th birthday party it was fun here are some pictures of the fam at the party.

NICK'S EARLY BIRTHDAY PARTY

2009-10-12T11:39:00.000-07:00

Nick's Birthday is actually not till friday the 16th, but we will be up camping that night getting ready for the Deer hunt to start. so i had a party for him the weekend before. it was a crazy weekend but was fun.

it started out Friday with me staying home to get things cleaned and ready. i woke up at about 9 in the morning and got busy. i cleaned and went shopping and tried to get all things ready i was up all night (literally) making his cake and cleaning up after myself and cleaning the house and garage. to make things better the saturday morning my bestie chels got babtised and i was asked to speak on the holy ghost. it went good but speaking infront of everyone after not sleeping or even laying down for that matter was difficult. ha ha

then nick got home early so it was not really a surprise party ha ha but he was happy. his family showed up and all the grandmas except grandma Lucy she was not up to it. she was missed and i i mean we really love her!! then our dear friend and nick's old roomate showed up i was so excited. i think nick really liked that. it was fun and here are some pictures.

just a note we are out side and in the shed because nick wanted his party OUTSIDE! it was soooo cold but fun we had a fire and everyone were good sports!

our weekend events!!

2009-09-28T06:25:00.000-07:00

we had a fun but very full busy weekend. starting friday i wake up early so i can get ready and get all our garage sale stuff loaded in the truck. take it to my mother in laws house so that she can sell it for us the next day!! Friday night Nick and I went to our friends Chad and Whitney's wedding, it was so pretty! whitney was amazingly beautiful, and chad looks good all cleaned up it was fun and great food!! afterwards we watched a movie with our friends Chelsey and Tyson M. we had not hung out in forever and it was fun to catch up. Saturday, wow got up early and went to get my hair done by my wonderful sister in law Melissa. then headed down to get nick into his tux. long long day. beautiful and fun but feet need some rubbing! we had a break between the ceremony and the reception, i played on the zip line with mason's sister and her friend. it was fun. Mason and Chelsey looked so happy, i had to keep telling chelsey to RELAX! she was beautiful and it was beautiful with a beautiful day weather wise. it was perfect but as a bride once you do worry.

Chelseys dad i think was having a hard time but he got his dance in and was being himself for most of it. decorations were so cute and flowers were beautiful and good good refreshments since that is what we had all day! cake was beautiful heavy but beautiful. it was so much fun and i was so glad to be a part of their wedding day thank you guys!! best wishes

then the next day was my mother in law's Birthday! we went up the canyon and surprised her. We took family pictures close to 300 pictures taken ha ha here are just a few happy birthday Lisa

This is the water fall where nick proposed!! over 2 and a half years ago. it was fun to be there. and take more pictures there i just love my husband he is the best

LiFE and BeST WishES!!

2009-09-22T11:48:00.000-07:00

Nick and i are going to two of our friends wedding this weekend i am excited and will have to post pictures one of them we are even in! Chad and Whitney are getting married friday! i love these two, i met whitney while working at the dry cleaners she is a blast we worked together maybe a month then realized after sharing stories that our husbands knew eachother and not only that but were child hood play mates. they have been dating forever and i am glad they are taking that next step. congrats!! then Saturday we are headed to chelsey and Mason's wedding! exciting (nick not so much only because he has to get into a tux again, hates dressing up) Chelsey has been my best friend for many years. i aboslutly love her. i am so excited she found a guy like mason. i am so happy and excited i get to be a part of this. i would like to give them advice from mine and nicks mistakes and lessons.

remember that there will only be one bride and one groom's signatures on your wedding certificate. and those two people are the ONLY two that have a decision on your happiness, future, and life together, others may have a say but no dicision"

also this is something i do and did to help us through our hard times. when you find yourself mad or angry at your spouce, stop what you are doing saying! get out a pen and do 4 things 1st write down 5 things/reasons why you are mad 2nd rip,tear,burn that paper. 3rd on a new piece of paper write 5 things/reasons you are thankful for this person for, 4th fold it and keep it with you through out the day and when you find yourself muttering or feeling angry again read the note agian.
it helps me.

and remember to love eachother through good AND THE BAD!!

nick and i have been married for over 2 years now and i love him more every day, somedays i do not like him and him not me. but i can honestly say everynight when we are home and climb into bed we always kiss goodnight. and say i love you.

i have learned a lot about LOVE and what these 4 letters mean to me. i have loved many people, some have hurt me, some have taught me lessons and some have only loved me when it is good for them. but one of the best men i have ever known truly showed me what love IS. Grandpa Thompson. i miss him so much and i want to live my life like him. he had no enemys and loved litterally everyone he met. this is my goal to love everyone! so i love you all.

Zeek Thompson and Nick's accident

2009-08-26T08:22:00.001-07:00

I am going to do better at adding pictures now. but this is Zeek he is so cute i took him to get his 2nd round of shots yesterday, on the way he pooped in my car urg! then we get him to the vet and he does so good until they take his temperature did not like that i am so glad that we humans have other methods of taking our temperatures. GROSS!! then they give him the shots i pay and we head home only for him to poop in my car on the way home. he never does this. i am convinced that he was getting pay back for having to go to the vet i told nick he takes him next time.

the first picture was taken up logan canyon
Lucky and Teal were crossing the river and jumping on rocks and me and nick got out on one. well Zeek thought he would give it a try. and fell in poor thing we put him in the truck so he would not get muddy. he is so cute and he loves nick. and men i think all men. but when nick goes outside Zeek waits my the door how cute till he comes back he is fun. he also HATES the heat. he wines till he is cool and laying on our tile floor or right on top of the vent as it blows cold air.

Update on Nick, this past little bit has been hunting season, well nick came home last wednesday he had to work then thursday i was excited because we were watching my cutest nephew dylan, and we were just going to hang out well he gets a phone call from our friend colton, and he has got his elk. this thing is huge. so he was gone all night again well till about 3:30 AM. bummer

Tyson Nick Colton and Thom.
then here comes the weekend i made nickk stay home and catch up on sleep saturday morning it was much needed. and i got ready and went to throw a friend chelsey a bridal shower towards the end i get a call from nick
me hello
nick hi
me whats up
nick i think i need to go to the hospital
me WHAT DID YOU DO!
nick cut my head with a broadhead
me how bad
nick well dont know just a lot of blood and it hurts
me ok i will meet you there can you drive ok
nick ya ..... love you bye

get there and the broadhead had cut his head about 1 1/2 inches wide and is very deep and it went in at an angle and rolled his skin. made me sick. so we go in and they hook him up to heart monotor and all that fun stuff then come in to numb it. nick was acting so tough but when they put that needle in i saw his heart rate jump. felt so bad. so now with 4 staples in his head he headed right back up the canyon what a trooper. i just love my husband.

Anniversary number 2

2009-08-20T06:54:00.000-07:00

I wrote about chester, i thought you would all want to know, but it was also Nick and mines anniversary. we have been happily married for over 2 years now and love life i love growing together. we have not had the blessing of the little pittle pattle of feet (well baby feet) yet but one day we will get our little children till then.... other priorities come first. sounds selfish putting it that way but those of you who know that is not the case. nick and i enjoy being in the mountains. He loves to hunt and i support him 110% i love to see him get so excited to get up there and be surrounded by pine trees, animals and dirt ha ha. i go with him sometimes but i like to be taking care of things at home too, i must love him for him to leave me and i am scared to death at night. this past time i would sleep till noon because i would stay up till 3 4 sometimes 5 in the morning cleaning or making bread, doing laundry and watching movies i cannot sleep without him next to me too scared the gun within arms reach when i do is my only other security. scary i know!! i added some pictures of our life over the past 2 years on here i hope you can get a perspective of what we are like.

Chester

2009-08-11T07:42:00.001-07:00

Chester was put down to rest August 10, 2009. He had Loupis [not sure on spelling] the corners of his eyes would crack and bleed and sore, same with the corners of his mouth and his little paws. we went to the first vet and he did not know what was really wrong, but instead had us put a cone one him and had to put this cream on his eye. then we took him to the same one as our 3 dogs and they diagnosed him. they gave him pills that would make it better but would have sideaffects to damedge his liver and kidneys, but assumed it would be 1 year till he would die. we were giving him as directed, a few days and his eye looked like it was getting better, then he started to vomit only a couple times then got worse over the weekend he got to the point that he was up all night vomiting, scott slept on the kitchen floor with Chester, waking up in the middle of the night to find chester gone he looked all over and finally went outside to find chester laying at to bottom of the stairs, it was a stormy night so he was wet and cold sick and dehydrated, so much that he just layed there did not even have the strength to bark for scott's attention [if you know chester no bark means something is wrong] scott called the vet. they got him in and put an iv in to try and hydrate him and they started tests. it was not long till we got a call saying that his liver and kidneys were failing. we had the options of dyalisis or putting him down. watching our dear grandpa go through dyalisis, we chose to put chester down. scott and i went to the vet, the vet was so kind and gentle, he asked us if we wanted a minute, we gave him a kiss on the head and said ok, they shaved his other arm so they could put in the needle, chester did not even flinch. 10 seconds later his head went down slowly, and the vet listened to his heart and about a minute later his heart had stopped. scott had a nice casket, we put him in. he is burried in his back yard.

chester was loved, he loved people and to be around them. he loved my mom. Scott took him up to see my mom, thank you scott, but they got their goodbye. i have many memories with him. if you have a memorie of him, write it down scott wants to do something for him. to burry with him so down the road if someone diggs him up they will know about him and know he was loved.

Our little family

2009-07-29T16:14:00.000-07:00

He is the cutest little chocolate lab i just love him and his green eyes. so our family now consists of Nick and I, Lucky chocolate lab, Teal a black lab, then came Peatry and Littlefoot our chickens that are weird and thanks to our dogs spend time in our tree ya a tree kind of funny. Then we decided last week we needed one more we got Zeek he is so cute. i feel like a mommy, it helps since it will be a while before children come along. he loves to sleep all the time and then to try and play with Lucky(old grump) but deos not get very far. so him and teal play. nick tried to introduce him to the chickens and they won the first round by pecking his poor little nose. more pictures will come

2009-07-20T12:58:00.000-07:00

The past week was full of trials. I have learned so much this week. our grandfather Hugh Vance Thompson, who was 88 died on tuesday the 14th day of july at about 3:15. all of his children were there along with their mother. the week flew by, soon it was friday and his viewing. we did an estimated count [counting signatures in his book] and there was about 500 people who came to show their love and condolences. "what a tribute" we all kept saying a man who TRULY "loved" everyone. more to come saturday. his funeral was beautiful. so many people. and so much family.

Nick got the opportunity to carry his grandfather along with 7 of his cousins. I can say that grandma did a great job. the funeral was beautiful and so much love then, to the cemetary grandpa had a vault that was absolutely beautiful, there was pictures all over it and one of everyones favorite was the hershey's bar it was so cute. there will be pictures uploaded and many of my favorites. grandpa we will miss you and love you so so much.

GRANDPA VANCE

2009-07-14T05:58:00.000-07:00

Last night was a late one, we were at our grandpa's house trying to say goodbye i guess. a little bit about grandpa and our [[my]] story. the end of october in 2006 i got a call from my boyfriend [[now husband]] and he was clearly upset and asked if i would come down to mckay dee hospital because his grandpa had had a heart attack and was in ICU. i was nervous never meeting the family before other than my now wonderful father-in-law. so we head down, we finally find what part of the hospital we are supposed to be at and park and head in we meet tiffany and brian [[bev]] and head up to meet the rest of the family. we walk in and i remember everyone was sad and all had worried looks on their faces some were crying and others in conversation, trying to keep there minds busy [i think] i get introduced to everyone. i remember meeting some family members more than others at this time. i remember megan, ashley, kelley, and jenny. i thought wow i am so glad they are nick's cousins ha ha they are so beautiful [the more i met the more i thought it is just a thompson thing they all are drop dead georgeous] then i met cindy and i loved her laugh right away and she was the aunt who made you feel comfortable. christine makes you laugh. then i met nancy at first made me nervous [because i was already so i didnt catch on that she is a joker] she asked me a lot of questions i remember this, she asked my age my full name where i grew up and on and on. i also remember hearing that her husband is a lawyer and was like is she going to do a back ground check and all that. ha ha later i learned to love nancy and her sence of humor but at first i was nervous around her. nancy i love you! then the my uncle monte was next at the time monte was nick's boss. at first glance i was scared to death of monte he is so big and i always heard how strong he was i just tried to stay out of his way. i now love monte to death he is a big teddybear. but then it came time to go in and meet grandpa.
He was not alive on his own, at this point. it was hard to see a man you heard so much about laying there like that. a few days pass and he improved and eventually woke up. we head down the day he woke up and we could talk to him. got in an accident in brigham and my brother had to come and get us. and take us the rest of the way to the hospital.

i remember this day very well. curt and christine and their children well the youngest 2 were there with them. i felt awkward like i was taking up family time. and from out side the room i hear grandpa telling the story of how he had died, quite the story, long story short he said he had some things he had to do before he died, he turned to nick[ we were in the room by now] and said and one of them is to watch you get married, and held his hand out to me and said he loved me and wanted a kiss on his cheek. i fell in love with that man right there. i tell nick all the time i married him for his grandpa. in a way i did. i love my husband and my family. i love how everyone comes together and shows grandpa that we love him. i wish i could know him longer and when he was healthy. i am truly blessed to know grandpa vance, everyone who has met him is a better person, and cannot leave him feeling good inside. I have Never met a man with more love than him. we love him so much!!!!

so it started out with friday night we watched a movie with out best friends toots and mason. then saturday morning the dreaded weigh in well at least it was a loss 1 pound!!!!! YAY! while toots and i were at weigh in mason and nick went up and set up camp. after the weigh in toots and i went to wal mart to get some stuff for "hobo dinners" then we went tanning felt so good. mason left his truck down at albertsons so we left our cars there and took off up the canyon, i have to admit i was VERY nervous about toots driving that truck up the canyon but i only got scared once. she did good i should know to have more faith in her, we get up to our turn off and the search began we drove all over and were getting very mad. we stopped long enough to make the hobo dinners then kept on our search we finally drove far enough up to find them. we get out get the fire going and start our dinners. while waiting for that we played with the dogs, lucky and teal aka "T-POT" or "dingo" and kolt mason and toots dog. he is quitre the dog dork is what i would call him. we were getting ready to leave and we threw kolts toy one last time and it got eatin by the pine tree we looked for a while then toots found it on a big nest. we trew rocks and sticks at it no budge we left it we knew where it was. then we went home and went to bed the next day nick and i woke up late for church and decided it was a nice day. we planted the rest of our garden, gave the dogs a bath and hung out in the sun, nick decides he wants to go fishing so we dug in our garden for worms and headed out. we were there maybe 45 minutes and i saw a snake ya long story short we HAD to go home or at least leave. ha ha nick was not so happy but just laughed, he got really mad when i rufused to get in on my side of the truck because i would have to walk on grass. ha ha he just makes fun of me. i love my husband ha ha love you all

I AM SOOO LUCKY!!!!

2009-04-10T12:30:00.000-07:00

I have to admit I have been feeling very sorry for myself lately, but with the help of a loving husband, and my mom and family and a lot to toots. i tear up when i say her name. i have felt great happy and excited. toots and i met our jr. year that sounds not so long ago but we have been through a lot together all our failed relationships and the mean boys, she dated this kid who i HATE i dont hate many people but i feel that for him he was i would say abusive, he told her lies about herself that she was fat and ugly and so on (if you have ever seen her you know these are lies) i hated that she felt these were true. i am glad that relationship ended but it was ugly, she dated a few other guys who were just not up to par. then Mason came along. and i have to admit i was not so sure about this kid at first. we did not meet him for a while i found no point another guy to not like right. well i saw a change in her first. and wow. i love mason now my love is like a brother love. he has helped her so much and she is truly happy. i think the world of this kid. and him and nick are friends now they hang out more than toots and i do. mason if you read this you are amazing, you are her angel and i know this. but any way toots has pushed me at they gym we go 10 miles at least a day at the gym. she inspires me. i love that i have family and friends that love me. nick for making me eat right not always my favorite person because and dont tell him this but he is right and knows what is best for me. I HAVE LOST 3 POUNDS IN 1 WEEK. not a lot but when you have to work harder than most it made me feel good. i know it has a lot to do with nick toots my mom and my father in law scott. they are awesome. i know i can do this i have already had signs of improving my health AWESOME!!!!!

NOT MUCH BETTER BUT GETTING THERE

2009-04-03T16:08:00.001-07:00

I got a blessing last night. it has helped but i am a little well... lets just say depressed and discouraged. thanks to all the friends and family who are there i looked into what i have a little bit more i am getting comfortable ok a little (very) but i CAN and WILL get my weight down the scary part is it can come back i can only gain like 10-20 pounds a pregnancy when i can actually get pregnant or i have high risk of loosing the little one. this has made me realize i need to get my but into shape not only physically but spiritually i need to get to the temple and get sealed to my best friend and my biggest support person right now my husband, i have heard miscarriges, they cannot be sealed to you if you have not gone through. maybe this is my challenge. we will see i am going to work on it. and i am so thankful for my husband dad and brother in law matt. they gave me a blessing to help me since i have to work like 5 times harder to loose weight than normal girls, and these dumb cyst cause me to gain nick calls what i have POS instead of PCOS to make me laugh it helps. i am working on it and thank you for the prayers and support, i expect you all there WHEN i get my baby and have it be here and be healthy. i know my unborn children are rooting for me also i can feel that.
I CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WILL DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a Day!!

2009-04-02T11:37:00.000-07:00

i have to write it down i am having a hard time. i woke up this morning got ready to go to the doctor thinking that i was going to be told i was pregnant,hear a heart beat or something. well i find out there is no baby. and that is just the begining i have something called polycystic ovary syndrome. i have gained a lot of weight in the past few years and that has caused me to become boarderline diabetic. all of this comes together i guess so i am not ovulating. which means i have to loose weight and get healthy or i will be diabetic and no baby or a high risk pregnancy. i am so glad that i have a great support team there are a few of us that are joining weight watchers.

So we are all moved in our house and loving it. i had some pictures but when i downloaded them half were gone. there are pictures on face book. i am going to have a MoD ParTY at my house the 21 of march if you want to come you should let me know. it will be fun and lots of good food and a few prizes i think it all depends. so let me know. my e mail is thompson_sarah_d@yahoo.com . i am also doing the biggest looser with my mom and sister in law amy. i am totally going to win but if any of you have good healthy food plans let me know. i want to loose 50 pounds by june 1. i can totally do this i weigh in tomorrow i am nervous.

I love when friends go through what you do and they have advice. my friend Sheena said a friend gave this to her.

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies... Read More. Be successful anyway.
If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you.
Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating others could destroy overnight.
Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness some may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten.
Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough.
Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
