Remember to Cherish each Moment

for these are the things Memories 

are made of.

1. We just got away for 4 1/2 days to SLC for D's work he works for an awesome company who's employer is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints so these work conventions are so fun to go to uplifting, way to much good food, and its fun to meet all the others who work in this worldwide company. It amazes me how much there is to the company from the leadership to the "family" we all become with a common goal among us all. So the kids went to various places and had tons of fun {thanks SO much all who watched our kids!} and we had a nice little break away, honestly being in the same vehicle and talking and laughing for 10-12 hours is my favorite part, when you have a husband who works so much is gone a fair bit and busy busy its nice to have some time to talk ! I didn't even get one picture together though!

2. Friday morn I had some free time so I went to my favorite place... I love temple square I love the beauty of it, the flowers immaculately taken care of , I love the feel of history that is so strong you can feel it. I love the buildings the people and meeting random new people,

 3. I love HISTORY I could read about, tour it and research it over and over I love to see how people lived thought and learned I still love it now too but especially those who have gone before.

 4. I loved the sunset last night, and driven to music probably another one of my favorite things... nature and everything about it....we drove home all night and got home at 5am slept for a few hours and picked up the kids.

5. D's company puts us up in style and feeds us way to much and basically spoils us for a few days. We are required to attend parts of it and we have a luncheon and other things set up if we choose to do it... I enjoy the sleeping in, the shopping and whatever I feel like doing :) I love seeing people from year to year and listening to the different ranch stories and learning more about this vast company. As LDS people we have no idea the enormity of land, cattle and food the church produced and is involved with ALL over the world its incredible and I am so thankful we are apart of it lots of people spend there time moving here and there from Australia to Brazil to Florida to Washington to California to Utah everywhere! We spent four months in Florida in 2007 and it was amazing to see all that happens there on their Ranch and the people were awesome and I learned a lot from them and about myself.... all part of the process....Learning and growing....

  6. A few things I loved that I heard from some of the talks especially from the women who had to move to brazil Chili mexico argentina that its all in our ATTITUDE how we chose to accept situations we are put into no matter what it is it will make or break any situation....that kind of hit me some of the are:

7. "Get out of the mud" {thanks michelle} the negative thoughts and attitude only dig you deeper into a rut thats harder to get out of....we decide by our attitude how much we are going to do

we are the HEARTBEAT of the family  and the way we react or have an attitude about whatever it is........ is how our children and husband will feel and will suffer with us or be happy with us...make the best of what life has given you.

so basically COWBOY UP from discouragement.

love it..

8. I love my hard working D, he is amazing, calm and an awesome father to our kids, the best of the best of a husband and friend, I am so so thankful for the attitude and calming influence he is in our family and his teasing always making us laugh ways too. I feel very blessed to have him and blessed to have the children I do...before we left on Tuesday after the tragedy last Saturday in the family it made me really look around and appreciate all that I have and hold them all a little tighter.  

Thanks for all your prayers for the family I know every one of them is greatly noticed and appreciated.
