When in situations of stress we wonder if there is anymore to give. We can be comforted to know that God, who knows our capacity perfectly, placed us here to succeed. No one was foreordained to fail. Let us remember that we were measured before and were found equal to our tasks. When we feel overwhelmed, let us recall the assurance that God will not over-program us; he will not press upon us more than we can bear.

California!

We just got back from our trip. We had a blast! We flew into San Jose on Friday and went to an Egyptian Museum there. It was really cool. They had some gross stuff, but it was very interesting to look at all the fun stuff! Then we went to Salinas and hung out with Todd's sisters there. We visited old friends and ward members there and just enjoyed the weather, which was beautiful! It was about 70 the whole time we were there, sometime colder and it made it VERY difficult to come home. On Sunday we went to church and afterwards had a picnic on the beach in Pleasant Grove. It was a place near where we went on our honeymoon. On Monday we went to Monterey to the warf and enjoyed the scenery there. Afterwards we found an even better beach and just slept on the beach while enjoying the beautiful sand there. We ended the day at Chevy's restaurant and then went to bed. We drove home Tuesday with his sisters April and Rachel and our niece Taylor. Needless to say, the car was full! We had a great time and are now dreading the whole real life thing.
