I Miss Chad!!!


I have been minus my partner this weekend and I just don't know how I became so dependent on another person! I have felt so lost! And he has only been gone since Thursday! I have a good friend who has a husband in the Army and he is going to be out of the states for at least a year. In only my little window of time I know I have no right to compare but I have such great empathy for her! I don't know that I am as strong as she is, I don't know that I could do that.
Chad is out of town at a Softball Tournament this weekend and Choir Tour next week and I am already dreading next week! So to occupy my time I am focusing my efforts and time (so much time!) on the house. I have cleaned windows, painted the front door, and cleaned house. I have huge plans for next weekend but it is also the end of the quarter for me, so we will see how wasted I am and if I just cave and finish the two books on my nightstand!

Tree of Life "For Dummies"


So I have started reading the Book of Mormon again and I'm loving it! My SIL Erin sent out a chart and by reading just a couple of chapters a day I can be done in June. So today I was reading in 1 Nephi 15 and truly laughed out loud. Nephi has just seen the DVR of the Vision and his brothers are confused and they start asking him questions. Nephi (righteous powerhouse) shares with them the plain Jane answers. It could be that I am currently reading a "For Dummies" book on CS3 or that I am just completely sacrilegious. I just love sweet Nephi giving a Dummies version for his lame brothers. Check it out 1 Nephi 15: 21-36. I read the vision yesterday and today the "For Dummies" version just really hit me! It's probably that I am more of a Lemuel and it made a lot more sense to me, or that I took a nap before I read today...The power of a nap!!

Go AF!!!

Yes, we have been busy! One great event was last week American Fork Girls Basketball team took State in the 5A Classification. We are still on cloud 9, and have had the flu, spring sports try-outs, Softball practices and games and very little sleep...we'll write more later!

Question #2

How long will be arms hurt after doing this off and on for 30 minutes?? No this isn't me, I don't even want to know what I looked like doing this. The shaking of the arms...etc. I was smart enough to pull my hair back though.
