In Memory of Bishop Rick Bastian

My bishop of two years in my student ward suddenly passed away from a heart attack.  He was such a great man and was a wonderful bishop.  I have so many fond memories of him and his wife KayLynn.  They were so involved in the ward, and knew each one of us individuyally, he even knew each of our struggles.  Even when their two kids, Travis and Desiree, died in a car accident three years ago, they were so focused on helping others.  As a couple they would make trips to families, who have lost chiildren, and give them advice and comfort.  I can just imagind the reunion he had with his two kids. 

As a couple, Rick and KayLynn, they were literally one.  They served all those they came in contact with.  They were always so kind and loving, wiht the softest hearts.  I have learned to love them as my parents away from home those two years, and have considered myself lucky to get to know them and letting me into their family.  He was truly a man of God.  My prayers and thougth are with his wife and family.

You are loved and will be missed Bishop Bastian!

WE'RE BACK!

Now that we are back to reality, I am not liking it! Brayden is out of town all week AND all next week for work! I am dying here. I have to keep busy so I don't get to lonely.  So I figured it was a great time to catch up on my Blog.  Because I have been kind of neglecting it.  So here it goes...

Brayden and I were sealed for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake City LDS temple October 7, 2009!! They day could not have been more perfect!
