Going north for Thanksgiving

We are going to be going to Brigham City for Thanksgiving. Barbie is more excited than anyone I think. She is enjoying being able to tell everyone that she will be out of town for Thanksgiving. The last time that we went to Brigham City for Thanksgiving we went to Cache Valley, found a house and bought it. That is not in the plans this time, I mention it only because it seems as if it was so long ago. It is amazing how fast 5 or 6 years go by! The last few month have been really hard for Barb and I. There are some things that both of us have been working through in our personal lives and in our relationship. It is interesting that these issues have come up now and not sooner. If we would have tried to work out some of them earlier in our marriage, I am not sure we would have made it through. This is mostly due to the fact that I deal with things much better now that I used to. It has taken a long time for me to get to a point that I can talk about something that is difficult without flying off of the handle. I have matured in that way a great deal over the last 15 years. It is a good thing. I love my wife very much, I want to do all that I can to work through the bumps that we are going through right now. It has been an interesting experience for me, as each issue comes up and is dealt with. They are not all coming out at once, but seem to be coming to our attention in a specific order making it so we can deal with each one as it comes. We are going to make it through, we love each other, there are just things that we have never dealt with over the course of the last 15 years.
