Big Day

I am sorry! I have been so bad at posting what is going on. Our computer crashed and so we were out of a computer for a little while. I have a very smart husband that fixed it so now we have a computer again! YAY! We had a great Thanksgiving together. It was our first Thanksgiving as a married couple. We were trying to fit a lot of things in on one day so we only managed to get one picture. We went to my Grandma and Grandpa Steinfeldt's house first. We ate delicious food and played a game called Would you Rather? Then we headed out to Ryan's grandma's house. We ate pie and watched Get Smart there. Then we headed to the movie theater to watch Four Christmases. We went to that with my family and my cousins and aunt and uncle. It was really funny, but not a movie for kids! It was a fun and busy day.

This is the only picture we took of Thanksgiving

Also something big happened on the seventh. I do not know if many of you know, but my husband is a convert to the church. He converted when he was nineteen almost twenty. It was a big decision for him to make at that point in his life. He is the only member of his immediate family, however, his grandma and grandpa are members and he has two aunts, two uncles, and some cousins that are members. He went to church for a long time and then when he was twenty-one his mom passed away. That was a really dark time in his life, I am sure you can all imagine. He stopped going to church for awhile. Well about two years later he started going to church again. That is when he got his patriarchal blessing and the bishop started talking to him about getting the Melchizedek priesthood. He did not feel ready at that time and kept working towards it.


Well two Sundays ago he received the Melchizedek priesthood from my father. It was such a special day. I am so proud of him. I am so glad that I will have the priesthood in my home and that he will get to bless our future children and me whenever it is needed. He has came a long way. It was always in his heart to come to this point it just took a little bit. He just wanted to be completely ready, which I admire!


I love you Ryan with all my heart! I am so very proud of you and very happy for you! Thank you for being such a wonderful husband to me and taking care of me. I love you.
