Trying to be better

I have a feeling I'm going to be putting up a couple of posts. My thoughts are racing. But, I want to make sure that this story gets out before I babble on about all my thoughts. So, last weekend I was blessed enough to go on a trip to Boise with my favorite person in the world ;] we had a blast all weekend! I was planning on taking lots of pictures but hadn't done super well doing so. We headed back here (to Rexburg) on Monday since Josh didn't have class that day. We drove through Twin Falls and did a bunch of fun things. Twin Falls has an awesome bridge, the temple, and of course Shoshone Falls (my favorite place on earth!) So, we had some WAY super awesome pictures that we took and we were at the temple and I realized I needed to delete some pictures. So, when I did I somehow clicked a delete all in this folder or something. And suddenly all my pictures were GONE! I mean they were no where to be found!! I had amazing pictures from quite awhile on there too.. It was a bummer! And when it happened I got extremely frustrated. I was quite ridiculous! I couldn't believe how I was acting and I was the one being that way! Josh hugged me and told me it was going to be okay. He kindly told me how petty I was being and really made me think. (and yes.. this really was my thought process) Wow, Josh really chooses his happiness, that's awesome! I should write about that on my blog... oh wait! I can't write about it when I'm freaking out! DANG IT!!! Then, I got even a little more frustrated. I don't know how it happened, but somehow I wasn't as frustrated about it later. Especially even right now, I don't care at all! It's fantastic to feel this way. Yes, I would love to have those pictures. But, better than the pictures were all the memories. I used to be able to live life without my camera, then I just got way into scrapbooking and recording, and all those silly things that I think sometimes I put the scrapbooking thoughts in firtst, before I even enjoy myself. But, this week has been better since then. I don't really think that way. I've already noticed a slight difference. Today, Josh and I made a random cake...so of course there was a frosting fight. It was a good one haha. But, afterward I just went to go wash up. Then, all of a sudden Josh goes, "no picture this time?" I couldn't even believe it hadn't run through my head! I actually just enjoyed the moment and enjoyed him. I think he is fantastic! Really really I do!! But, I'm totally choosing happiness! :D And I'm not going to let something little get in the way again!! HAPPINESS IS MY CHOICE I'M MAKING TODAY!!!! 


Oh, and I can't believe I forgot this part of the story... after I deleted all the pictures Josh kindly drove back to Shoshone Falls (we were about 15 minutes away I think.) so that we could replace some of the pictures. So, we got even BETTER ones that way! He is too great! Oh and these are some of them ;]
