So I have officially decided that I am the worst blogger in the world. I get on and check other peoples blogs for updates, and I see how long it's been since I've last posted, and I cringe at the thought of taking the time to upload pictures and make a new post. Ugh!!! It's terrible of me, but if there is anything to procrastinate, I guess this is a good one. It's not eternally damaging if I don't get it done.
So here is a little update. We spent Christmas in Utah and got to see my youngest brother Adam come home from his Mission in Madagascar. It was exciting to be apart of it all. Our flights went really well, and when I say that, I mean the kids did exceptionally well. It's not easy flying for 4+ hours with three kids under the age of 4. But like I said, they did great. We enjoyed our Christmas, visiting with friends and family and were happy to get back home. The only thing that seemed to go wrong was losing one of our carry-ons that Justis happened to set down in the SLC airport before we boarded the plane, and that we didn't realize was missing until 3 hours later when we landed in Dallas Texas. Gratefully it was only clothes and mostly his at that.
Since being home we have gotten back into our routine and tried to find motivation to do things-mostly me. It's march and I feel like I really haven't done all that much this year. Well, in the way of my normal crafts and projects/sewing, I haven't had much energy to do, but I did try something new in the month of February.
It was "Flat Belly February" for me. That's right I went on a diet. I was introduced to this by my mother in law and it was a good experience for me. I tried a lot of different new foods, learned a lot about calories and portion sizes, and over all enjoyed the whole thing. I also started exercising what I would consider religiously which means for me 6 days a week.
I never could have imagined trying something new like this. The experiences I've been blessed to have in the past couple of years have taught me to be flexible and more open minded. So I decided to try this crazy new thing and enjoyed the experience.
Anyway, now we are in a new month and looking forward to grandparents coming to visit, a birthday coming up and the warm weather festivities. Hello Spring!!!
