Nice little get away!

So this past week Bryan and I took the opportunity to go on a little mini vacation.  It was a much needed get away! It definitely couldn't of come at a better time! On Monday the 7th we headed to SLC for some doctors appointments.  Lets just say that day could have gone better!  Seemed like every appointment ran long and had some kind of complication and this time it had nothing to do with me or my health! So we finally got out of there at five, and we started the appointments at 10:45!  We jumped in the car and started the additional five hour drive to Mesquite, Nevada.  Well the drive took alot longer than five hours!  We ran into a very bad snow storm! and ended up parking on the interstate by Beaver, Utah for 3 hours.  They closed the interstate and we got caught in the middle of it.  Finally we rolled into Mesquite at 3 in the morning!  We found our room we where sharing with Bryan's parents and crashed ready for some much needed sleep. 

Well sleep didn't seem to happen,  we got woke up at 7 to go 4wheelering.  We almost didn't go, thinking that we needed sleep more but it would be the only day we could go for a ride.  So we dragged ourselves out  and I am so glad we did.  We rode up in the hills of Mesquite and it was so pretty, and sunny! In fact I got a little bit of sun burn!  Much needed after the snow storm we faced just a few hours before hand!   The rest of the week was fun!  Spent time with Bryan's parents and Grandparents.  Went to the Hoover Dam and explored the Valley of Fire state park.  Then on our way home Bryan and I drove through Zion national park.  I loved every second of seeing how amazingly beautiful the world is!

I came away with a much greater testimony of Gods Creations.  He has created everything for us to enjoy and use!  I am grateful he took such time and care in creating such a amazing place for us to live in!  It also amazing how much you can feel the spirit being among His works.  Bryan and I have had to make a lot of big decisions lately and I have been under alot of stress about them.  But this week but everything in prospective for me.  I know the Lord is  very aware of my worries and concerns.  Although I might feel like just a little blob in His huge world he runs, I know that He never leaves us alone.  And that I am indeed grateful for!
