Weekend Happenings...

This past Thursday and Friday, I posted a schedule for Ben to follow, wished him luck and ditched out on life. I attended Women's conference at BYU and let me tell you, it was amazing! I went with my good friend Sonia and it was just SO great! I needed the spiritual reminders to be a better wife, Mommy, friend, sister, and to do better in my calling. After the weekend I've had, my feet were pretty sad though...a couple times the contractions (I think braxton hicks, but whatever) started up. I had to sit and rest for a little bit. It was totally worth it!

A big shout out to my honey who came through with flying colors! He is appreciative of what I do during the day though, which isn't bad :)

2 hours after I arrived home from women's conference, we had 13 giggly girls over to our house for a Pajama Birthday party!! Princess was SO excited! We started out with a couple games while Ben made homemade pizzas. Then we ate some grub, opened presents, decorated draw string bags with glitter paint and foam stickers and had cake and ice cream! It was really fun and Princess felt very special...

The next day (Saturday) Princess was baptized. It was truly amazing to see my little girl so grown up and ready to take that step in her life. It was such a crazy day, my mom took tons of pictures, so I'll post some once I get some from her.

After the baptism, we had a brunch and had mine and his family over for Crepes and muffins. It was rainy outside so it made it a bit crowded, but there was tons of food to go around!

After the brunch, we went to see my sister Becca get her endowments out at the temple. It was so great to see her partake of those blessings. It's only less than a month until she is married!!

Sunday, we had a bridal shower for Becca and it was fun to see all my cousins, aunts, and uncles. David's family came too and I think some of them were a little overwhelmed with the sheer numbers and craziness that is my extended family.

Whew! I'm tired typing out everything that we did!

Today, I crash :)

  3. I was really hoping to be able to go to Womens Conference this year, but it just didn't happen. Glad it was awesome. Hopefully I'll get my butt in gear for next year!
