January 

A month that is usually FREEZING--turned out to be a month of nearly perfect weather! 

My husband will probably kill me for saying this because we NEED all the moisture we can get, but I wouldn't mind if every winter was like this one has been. As long as we got enough moisture of course. :) 

This month I started my spring semester of classes, which are much easier than last semester! Collin has been snowboarding and snowmobiling and just enjoying the slower winter months, even though with the weather being so nice they've been able to do a lot more than normal. I've just been trying to de-clutter everything in our apartment for when we move in a few months so that it will go smooth. It's amazing how much stuff two people can accumulate. I feel like I have got rid of so much! 

Work has been so busy the last couple weeks, and I have been putting in 10+ hour days which can be exhausting sometimes, but then I remember the 15-16 hour days Collin puts in during the summer months and that helps remind me I don't have it so bad.

 

We went to the Young Farmers Conference in Burley the last weekend of January, and it was so good! We learned a lot that will be helpful for our future. 

They had a motivational speaker who was amazing! I took a couple things from his speech that I'm really trying to work on. He claims that the only way to be successful is to follow these rules-- these are just a few. 

-Don't talk negative. Negative people have negative lives. 

-Never give up. Endure to the end. 

-Don't speak ill of people. 

-You must have patience. 

Anyway he went on about all the things that helped him to be successful in life and I really took a lot of it to heart and am going to try really hard to be better! 

January was good to us. Collins trucking is getting more and more busy which is good! We have hopefully got our next place to live decided on! I'll let you all in on it when it's a little more official. Our contract ends here in May so not too long.

I look forward to everyday with Collin and couldn't ask for anyone better to spend my life with! I'm thankful for all we have and hope 2015 is going well for you all as well. 

Life is good!
