Oh where to begin? Well, there's me Jessica Brown aka J-Monteezy, aka mama bear. I'm the painting, organized, bossy, compassionate one, trying to save the world one animal at a time! My handsome husband Logan (King) Thomas Brown aka daddy bear, the kind, sometimes scary, yet super sweet. (but shhh its suppose to be a secret.) The bald, gun lover, and newly street biker, hard working, protective and silly one with an amazing smile! Our sweet baby girl Melody Brown who is now 3! Aka smelly-pants mcgoogie-brains, the adventurous, social, smart, beautiful, princess loving/playing in the dirt, awesome big sister and extremely funny one! And Oaklynn our newest addition. She is the sweetest little girl you will ever meet, always happy no matter what and a big mama's girl! Now that she is 1, she's created quite a personality (btw 10.3 at birth 1 week early.). For example she's stronger than I am, she refuses to let me feed her, since day one. She must feed herself, all by herself. She laughs when anyone gets hurt. She's walking/running/climbing 24/7, she copies everything big sister does. And finally a baby-girl that looks somewhat like me!!! And this is our family blog! We love God, family, friends, cartoons, action movies, quoting our movies or T.V shows, also karate/boxing, chocolate, and naps with tons of pillows bundled in several blankets...aww the best! Logan and I have been married for a 3 years now, he's my best friend in this entire world, my therapist, my "joke-maker." (<--quote from seinfeld.) We've already gotten to experience so much together the good the bad, the unknown but more importantly some very spiritual moments that have just made us that much stronger as a family and children of our Heavenly Father. I'm excited to see what the future holds for us! We have a wonderful family, a few shout outs to my mama and pops idk how you survived my teenage years but thank you for not giving me away, more importantly thank you for supporting me through EVERYTHING. T-mama and the Craiginator, I can't thank you enough for your support and advice, and thank you for welcoming me into your family and making me feel right at home. Madi Brown, the most talented person I've ever met! The Barkers aka, "the hippies." Am, I have 1 thing to say, "I got a dime in my pocket & i'm cookin' some eggs." Jes... "Whyyy!? Whyyy!? so many blue shirt?" "And stop with the fork fetish." Lots of love to the beautiful red-headed Emma bean & Adele aka delly bells. "No not like the singer & not like the computer." The Browns, Tyson your awesome, vanilla coke rocks! Jen, thx so much for accepting me for me, including the ocd, skulls, love for your vacuum & labels. Cam-a-lam super princess, spunky lil noo noo's & peter parker who will soon be dressed like a G! Thx to aunt Jess & unc Logie, I love you all! (And noo noo's don't tell your mom, but your my best friend xoxo.) Unc Kurticuzzzz, I wanna snowboard like u! Jealous of your Burton connects. :) Love u! miss u! Love you unc Clint, my professional cook. Granny, love you so much! Thank you for introducing me to cow boy boots, horse races, Shania Twain, "Friends in Low Places." And "Rock my World Little Country Girl. And probably not last but definately not least, GG who has been one of my biggest supports, and always makes time to provide us with riddles and sayings such as, "Your like the rasberry seed stuck in my tooth." (Not sure if I said it right.) Go Bonanza!!! Charlie Brown we love you sweet puppy & Milton T. F Brown we love you lil fishy! Okay so if I forgot anyone, don't feel bad and these shout outs are not "in order of any kind so don't get your underwear or garments in a twist.) Just not used to having this huge family, but am extremely grateful to have. And friends of mine, I love you, you know who you are.

So true I loved getting your email and reading your posts! I love learning new things and have also found a new-found love for the friend. Sweet and simple is still my favorite! Miss you! PS I've put a ton of pics of us out here on my blog so you have to visit! wereallanimals.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI think it's great that you are enjoying the church magazines so much and using them in your life. The gospel is all about how we can apply what we learn in our daily lives. That is why studying what the current prophets and apostles have to say is so important, along with studying ancient scripture.
ReplyDeleteLove the new blog! Thanks for sharing the link.
ReplyDeleteJess! I love your words. I can totally relate to not being able to express myself sometimes to others! Especillay being a convert as well, but depth of knowledge of the gospel seems so little compared to others. I feel like I cannot articulate my feeligns sometimes even though I know the recipe to what has helped me. I loved your comment about sometimes those moments of revelation are specifically designed for you that others may not understand. I have learned over the years that the principles taught are so simple.
ReplyDeleteTo also relate to the quote "you are never lost when you can see the temple". While this statememnt means so much figuratively (striving to always have the goal/thought of the temple in mind) it resonates another meaning as well. One time as I was driving out to a new campus for the first time (San Tan area in AZ). I was so nervous and scared for some reason and I couldn't calm my anxiety down. I got so lost as I was trying to look at directions on my phone, I missed turns, and only saw empty fields for miles. I remember just crying in my car because I was already late to class and I was just so frustrated. Before I knew it, I saw an LDS church building appear in the distance, kind of in the middle of nowhere, and I was instantly comforted. I knew that that was a little token of Heavenly Father guiding me. He does so in such subtle ways and I felt so comforted. I made it to school and my whole day was changed around! Just thought I would share :)
