TOFW = Happiness

I attended Time Out for Couples last night in Reno! It was awesome!!!!

The Walkers, who are the President and Matron of the Salt Lake Temple hosted the event. Elia Something spoke, and Jenny Jordan Frogley and Abe Mills (from the group Jericho Road) sang. Kel and I had a wonderful time ~ it is a great experience to remind us what is really important ~ us.

Kel is the best husband ever. I cannot imagine a better friend, lover or father. I am grateful that he saw something in me that made him want to be with me.

Stupid People Bug Me!

Today felt like every-stupid-person-on-earth-call-Bekki-at-work-day!!!!!! I know that not everyone is born with a brain but seriously, if you work in an industry and have NO CLUE what you are doing - get the freak out! You are bugging those of us who do!

Moving on.......

Colton moved out today. He went to stay with his grandparents until he gets a date to go to Basic Training for the Air Force. I am sad to not have him around. I know in my head that he needs to get out into the world, make his own way and grow up. It is my heart that really does not want to let go.

It is a strong attachment that I have for my first born. With his birth, I became a woman, an adult, a parent and scared out of my mind. From the moment they put him in my arms, I couldn't imagine my life without him. He became everything to me, my air, my happiness. I knew in an instant that I would do anything for him, that I loved him fiercely.

In what seems a blink of an eye, he is gone. He has grown tall and strong. He has a good heart. I admire that he wants to obtain something more that what our small town has to offer. He is brave and I know that he will have a great life.

I wish him success in everything he does. I pray that he will be safe. I hope that he knows I love him and I am only a phone call away.

Colton, I will miss and love you everyday!

Crazed Fan Alert!!!!

I am totally stoked! I have to opportunity to volunteer at the Time Out for Women and Couples this weekend in Reno, NV. I have been asked to drive a few of the presenters from the airport to the hotel one of them being, the one and only Jenny Jordan Frogley!

I met her at my first Time Out in Sacramento a few years back. She was performing with George Dyer, another great artist.

Her music is awesome. I especially love her song "I came to Win". With all my issues of late - it has become my personal theme song.

Now, I just have to calm myself so I don't scare anyone! ;o)

Six Quirkey things About Me......

1. I love baseball. It is not just the sunny days, green grass, home runs and stolen bases. It is all those really cute boys in tight pants! *Ü*

2. I enjoy playing Webkinz I just created a really cool halloween room and I am only 1 Gem away from a Webkinz Crown of Wonder! And I just got Bubbles the Frog a really cool pair of sunglasses!

3. I hate cheese...... I am the only one in my ENTIRE family that refuses to eat it. YUCK!

4. I snore. At least Kelly tells me that I do. I really have never heard it! Really.

5. As I told you in a previous post - I like cold Toilet Seats.

6. I love the Gospel. This may not sound quirkey to you, but I work with people who think it is!
