What the Crockpot?

Question: Who gets married and doesn't recieve 5 crockpots for their wedding?
Answer: Us.
Yeah, I don't know how we beat the odds on that one but when we got married we didn't get one stinkin' crockpot... We did get a ton of super cool things which we were really grateful for but because we didn't recieve a crockpot, why would we want to buy one? Over the course of the last three years there have been many times when I have wanted one. It sounds so lame and old to me but really, they are quite the invention. So for Mother's Day, Justin and Koy gave me some money to spend on anything I want in the way of a crockpot. Yay! I can't tell you how excited I am to have one and secretly, I made a spot in one of the cabinets for one a few weeks ago because I almost broke down and bought one.
That isn't the only good thing Justin has done for me though. He sent me flowers on Thursday and when we got home late last night from branding in Randolph, he still ran back out and got Charlie's Ice Cream, made me breakfast this morning and even taught primary for me today. He was made the 2nd counselor in the EQP OFFICIALLY a few weeks ago, leaving me a solo teacher in primary for now with an average of nine 5-year-olds every week. (It doesn't sound bad but there are a few rowdy kids that cause stress.) I've been kinda sick the last few days and Justin didn't think I should spread whatever it is with the primary and I felt kind of bad calling a mom on Mother's Day to teach the class, but, Justin piped in and offered before I even started complaining. Whew! He really is the best husband and always makes me smile. I just love him!
