We spied a bunny while we were walking in the park today!!

Eddie and I went to a rodeo last night!  It was so fun.  It started with 2 and 3 year olds riding sheep!!!  They would set up as if they were riding a bronco, and then be let loose and the sheep  would leap and hop until the tot fell off! Then they would be scored like a regular cowboy. Then they tied money to baby cows and let all the kids 12 and under chase them in the arena to try to get it.  I'd never seen anything like it.

                                          

These are a couple of other pics I took of the munchkin since he was lookin' so cute.

I walked into his room to find him like this...

A fort!

When I said, "Say cheese!" he TOTALLY stopped and posed for the camera. I took a video too but it's being funny and won't upload.

I have little baby tomatoes!

Some videos from San Jose.... Grandpa was trying to get Eddie's attention from the second story window- but Eddie couldn't figure it out. It was funny.

And this is from today- we were so bored!!

New pics..

This is of Jordan when he was little. I think Eddie looks so much like him!

This is Eddie, playing in box that's way too little.

This is my garden- it's totally growing!

I have a couple zucchinis already!

I put netting around my strawberry plants.  The girl at the store told me it had very narrow holes, but she was wrong and the holes are huge! So the birds just fly right through them and still eat all my strawberries.

I have just found the most incredible, helpful, pornography addiction recovery website----EVER!!

It's called rowboatandmarbles.org.  GUYS. If you or a loved on has dealt with this- I can honestly say that you will find help on this website.  I know that sounds like a huge promise, but I'm making it.  Start with the essays on the right hand side- scroll down a little bit to find them.

The first four essays to read are: Sitting in a rowboat throwing marbles at a battleship, The ABCs of Addiction, A Letter to LDS Wives About Pornography, and Muck Fires in My Brain.  Just these four alone will illuminate so much.

 I know we've all read so many General Conference talks and articles, and have heard to pray more, be more contrite, read scriptures more, confess to bishops and loved ones, get therapy, etc., etc. The list goes on, and addicts are doing all these things, so why are they still addicted? They may even go years between relapses only to realize afterward they never really were in recovery, but just white-knuckling it all along.

The writer highlights four main things that an addict needs to be doing; professional, one-on-one therapy (with a therapist who is GREAT and specializes in sexual addictions- a regular marriage therapist WON'T cut it); attending meetings at Sexaholics Anonymous (SA), which is different than the church's Pornography Addiction Support Group (PASG) because all the studies show that PASG is just not working the way it is supposed to, and SA is turning out to be incredible effective; working with one's ecclesiastical leader; and confessing relapses and being open and honest with your spouse if you are married, or parent or close family member or friend if you are not.  The message is that people who try to recover alone necessarily will FAIL! And the only people who are recovering (for good!!!!!!!!) are the people who are doing ALL four of these things.

So DO IT! Go to this website. Real, lasting, peace and recovery are possible. Check it out for yourself or a loved one- SERIOUSLY!

Hey, what are you still doing here???!?!?!? Go to rowboatandmarbles.org.
