Blaine and Carrin

Blaine and I were married on Aug. 10, 1982 in the Los Angeles Temple. We have 7 children. I gave birth to 4 and then we adopted a sibling group of 3. We love all of our children so much!! We now have 6 grandchildren. I love the ocean and Catalina is one of my favorites places. Blaine loves the mountains and fishing and hunting, he also loves Catalina. I have traveled across the US on the southern route. We went to college in Rexburg, Idaho when we first got married.

Forgiveness

Forgiving is hard, especially when you've been hurt so badly. I've had to ponder this principle a lot lately and I truly have had to put it to the test. Holding on to the pain is worse than letting it go but it's not an easy process, some days I feel the peace of letting it go and then the pain creeps up and engulfs me again. Like I said it is a process. I am grateful for the gospel in my life and I am grateful for the Temple and the peace I feel there. I am grateful for my grandchildren and the unconditional love they give.
