Tis Better Late Than Forgotten...Happy Birthday Martha!

Distance and miles may keep Martha and I far from each other, yet our unconditional friendship keeps us close to one another. I became friends with Martha during our last year at BYU when we were both pregnant with our boys. We hit it off right away because of our passion for food while pregnant. The funny thing is that I had met Martha a couple of years back (but she doesn't remember our meeting) but I did not hit it off with her so great back than. I think we are so similar with our personalities that it was either a hit or miss and luckily for us the second time around was a huge hit! After college we both moved to VA at the same time and became really close during those 3 years Micheal was in law school. She became my closest friend and family and we have shared so much great joy. As fate would have it, when we moved to CA she also relocated her family to the west coast (LV, but close enough)
It's so interesting how we get along so perfectly despite our strong willed similar personalities. We butt heads with our husbands but never with each other. I love her heart~ it is pure and true. She is a woman driven by her desire to please and serve those around her. Her zest for life and living is evident in her spontaneity. She is thankful for all that life has to offer her and takes everything in her life in strides. She sometimes takes on more than she can handle because her heart is bigger than her capabilities. She loves to dance to life's beat. She is crazy fun! What a minute! Am I talking about Martha or ME? I love ya girl! Your unconditional love and acceptance of me is forever appreciated! I'm thankful for your friendship in this lifetime and the next lifetime to come... Happy Late Birthday Martha! I can't wait to be in Vegas to celebrate with you and all of our friends.



Martha and I had the greatest blessing to travel to Laos together in April of this year. We were so overjoyed to run into the Latter-Day Saints missionaries at the hotel we were staying at.




Big Brother Mouse Gang...Martha was so caring and loving with the children at the school we sponsored.
