Speaker Boxes

Scott decided he wanted to put his sub woofers back into his truck, but he didn't have a speaker box to fit in his truck. So we decided we would make one together. We went out Friday night to Lowe's and bought some wood, glue, and outdoor carpet. Well while Scott started measuring, I got stuck playing a card game on my ipod touch. I was so into it it was hard to stop. I did hold the flash light for Scott, (he doesn't like me really doing to much cause he is such a perfectionist) then I sat down and played my card game while he made one box. Well we tried to fit his old box into the truck but it was too big by about 2 inches. I told him he just needed to knock off the two end pieces and it would fit perfectly. But of coarse he did not listen to me, and went ahead and made the first box. So while the first box was drying, he decided to knock off the two end pieces... I helped him fit it into his truck and WALLAA, It fit! He just looked at me and shook his head and said, "Don't say anything!" I just busted out laughing and giving him a hard time about not listening to a girl because he thinks I don't know how to do that stuff. It was hilarious. It was about 10:30pm when we finally finished and then we took a ride in the truck. I don't like the base being that loud but it was a lot of fun, we had the windows down and the music up.

Peace

I went to a couple of baptisms this weekend for my aunt and cousin. It was really neat. I sat there in the chapel after they were baptized and I felt the spirit so strongly. I just had such an overwhelming feeling of peace. Its been a while since I felt like that with life, jobs, bills, trials, etc getting in the way. Sometimes I forget the important stuff, cause I get so focused on the things that are happening right now. Sometimes we just need those moments to slow us down and put our lives back into perspective. It was amazing to get pulled back into line and feel such peace. I pray that I will be able to make my home have that loving peaceful feeling so I can have that everyday.
