I feel like a snail lately. I'm moving so slow and I'm not sure why. Maybe it's because I'm working out more. So that makes me more tired? I've also been slacking on the blog. Not much has been going on. Just staying super busy as a mom and wife. I love what I do and feel so blessed everyday. I'm really looking forward to going to women's conference next week with a bunch of friends. It's time for me to have a good 4 day break filled with inspiring talks, great conversations, food, and shopping. I'm already missing the boys and Darin just thinking about it, but I know I need to go and recharge my mom batteries. It will be great to feel refreshed and ready to take on anything at home again. Can't wait!

I am reading "The Last Song" I am really liking it so far. My friend Natalie joined the gym I go to, so now we go and workout 5 days a week. I'm no longer doing the sherox triathlon. I didn't feel like I would be ready, and I know it would have been fun to just do it anyway and not care what place I came in, I still didn't want to spend the money. It wasn't worth it to me this time. So someday, I would like to do one. Just not this time. I did take a swim lesson on Saturday. It was good and I learned some great tips. Now it's just practice practice. I'm trying to make more time for Casen and Drew instead of for myself. I always seem to plan my days around me, when I should around them. They need to have fun too. Don't get me wrong. I still make time for me, but just not the whole day. It always seems to be a much better day when I spend more time playing, reading & feeding them when I'm suppose to.




Those few paragraphs were written a few weeks ago. I am back from women's conference now. Before I left for women's conference Darin & I went on a fun date. We ate at Carrabas and went and saw The Last Song. We had some time in between so we went to best buy. we laughed and acted dumb. It was so much fun.

Women's conference was great. It was just the spiritual uplift I was looking for and needed. I went with 5 other awesome girls. I love these girls. I got to know them so much better last week. We took 2 cars, one of them being mine, and drove up to Provo. Our friend Angie let us stay at her cute house in Lehi. She owns a bakery in Provo called "The Chocolate". It's on State street. It's amazing. They have cakes, cookies, brownies, hot chocolate, pazookies, and a ton of other things. Such a fun and cute place. If your ever in that area, you need to check it out. We ate out a lot, and went shopping. Saturday we headed into Salt Lake City where we went to the temple, then met up with friends and family for lunch who live there. It was so much fun to see my nieces, and Michael & Kim. After that we went shopping and then to PF Chang's. It was a really fun trip despite the snowy and rainy weather and having to drive through snow storms there and back. It was so worth it and I'm glad to be home. I feel recharged and refreshed. Thanks to all those who helped watch the boys too.


Bring on the housework! I'm ready for it again!
