The last two months have been an absolute whirlwind! Moving is the worst. There is just no other way to put it. There are so many moving parts and it is just overwhelm every day. Just days after we returned from our Disneyland trip, Mark was offered a job in Colorado. We luckily had been …
Saying goodbye to our home…it’s hard. We came into this home pretty broken. It maybe sounds crazy to some, but we were shattered when we had to leave Garden City and move to Rock Springs. Have you ever had a dream that you never really thought would happen? And then IT DOES! And then it …
General Conference General Conference is easily one of my favorite weekends. It has become like a holiday in the Berning household, we have a countdown chain and everything, we LOVE it! This conference was a little tricky. We are moving in a matter of days and so the house is in chaos and every moment …

What a year. Maybe I can say this now that we are in our second decade of marriage but we were such babies when we got married. So much life has happened since then. So much good. So much growth. Everything we have experienced has brought us closer. And I am grateful every day that …
Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf has been a long time favorite of mine. Something about him and how he teaches seems to resonate in a special way with me. And this talk was no different. Elder Uchtdorf spoke of how to be a better disciple. I appreciated the study that Elder Uchtdorf shared about how we …
This last month Lydia got her first wheelchair! And she LOVES it! Several people had warned me that this was going to be a really emotional experience, but it really wasn’t – or at least, it was only in a really positive way! Once we got her all in, I was so happy for her! …
Last November, Lydia had a sleep study done – you can read about that HERE. After the sleep study they recommended she get put on oxygen. This was a hard blow for us. We also scheduled an appointment with an ear, nose, and throat doctor as well as with pulmonology. Oxygen Welp, it hasn’t been …
