Amazingly, today was a really good day. I think I've learned to plan ahead and make lots of plans on days I know will be hard. It was bittersweet looking back 9 years and remembering my wedding. I loved that day, I've always loved it. I spent time in the Temple today and as I walked to my car I realized how stinking hot it is here and memories came flooding back of how hot Sam was in his tux and I in my dress. I don't stop by Sam's grave often, but I made a visit there today. It's easier to visit without the kids. I love his tombstone because it has our marriage date on it!! I even ate Rubio's for the first time since Sam's death. I have been boycotting my favorite place to eat because it was the last meal Sam and I ate together. Then, I thought today I'll eat it for the both of us. I really enjoyed my burrito!! I squeezed in a facial which was fantastic. I highly recommend them, I was quite sad when it was over it felt so good. I ended the night at a vinyl lettering party that was lots of fun. I'm in the process of getting Emery into a twin bed and I bought some fun stuff tonight for her walls. I'm grateful that I could make today a positive day. It doesn't mean I didn't cry some, I still miss him, but I'm glad for such wonderful happy memories!!

I'm so glad that is was easier than last year. Yes, it was very hot---crazy that you got married in the summer in Phoenix! :)
It is nice to read that you are doing well. We miss you guys tons.
I also love Rubio's (and miss it tons since moving to Virginia). If you sign up for Rubio's Beach Club on line at http://www.rubios.com/eclub.html they will send you an e-mail for a free item each year for your birthday. You could put in any special date and have that be part of your celebration. :-)
i'm glad you found a way to make the day pleasant. good luck moving emery to a twin bed!
I'm glad you got to pamper yourself a little :) I haven't had a rubio's fish taco forever...wonder if they're still good ;) We miss you guys! what lettering did you get for Emery's walls?
are you going from crib to bed? I did the matress on the floor for a little bit, before I set the bed up :) I'm glad you got through your special day!
Sounds like you had a pretty good day. Thanks for your example.
Glad your day was better than expected. It was good to talk to you.
Hi,

It's weird what makes you cry but that made me cry. I remember your wedding day, and how fun it was.Sam is deeply missed!
I love that pic. of you and Sam. I wish I was in the family then. I wish I could have shared some of those memories with you but i am thankful for the atonement and that I might have more chances to create more memories with the two of you. I hope that came out right because I just love you both.
You are just stunning and Sam is just so handsome. You guys are such a b.e.a.utiful couple. Hope all is going well. I never thought how for you, you have another "anniversary" to get through. Not just the anniversary of his passing, but also your wedding anniversary. I always think of you at this time of year. Thought and prayers always!
