I know how or why I first became aware of pinterest, but I'm beginning to think I may have a problem.
And then they made an App for it. AN APP!!!!
I can get my fix all day, every day. I'm going to have to start "doing" with my pins. Just not admiring all of the cute, crafty projects from afar.
Derek, Tyler, Michael and I all spoke together in church today. I have to admit, even though it's always nervewracking to speak in church, I was proud of my boys and happy that we all got to speak together.
What fine young men we are raising. They each gave great talks
What a fine just - man - I'm married to. He gave an awesome talk.
I am one lucky lady...
And my "pinteresting" thought at the end of the day? (See, pinterest is good for something...)
"Those who are the happiest, never did have everything. But rather, they are thankful for everything they do have."
I am so thankful.

School Year Resolutions
School year: 2012-2013
School started and has me thinking about all the things I want to do this year. Maybe I should have "School year resolutions" instead of "New Year Resolutions" . The school schedule dictates how I live my life more than about anything else, don't you think? So here are my ponderings for this school year...
Say yes when I should and no when I shouldn't. And know the difference. I'm getting old enough to know better, time to figure it out.
Remember the reasons I do say yes to things. If it doesn't actually help out my family, then maybe I shouldn't spend my resources ie: time on it.
More spirituality in my home, especially music. My children are moved and motivated by good music. Almost all of them like to write music and play various instruments. Now it's up to me to use that to all of our advantage.
My daugter turns 12 in October. My goal is to treat her and continue to strengthen our relationship so she can blossom.
Read scriptures say prayers go to the Temple...
Organize my home, room by room.
Don't sweat the small stuff. No REALLY. Don't be a "freaker outer".
Wear skinny jeans sometimes. I borrowed cute Rachel's in Idaho and I really liked them. Cute and comfortable. Tyler told me it was only a "skinny jean fling" and a "one day wear" (because I am his MOM), but I will only wear them once in a while.
Work out, get a Brazilian blow out on my hair. Just a few "vain" things to enjoy my 40's before the wrinkles get serious...
Enjoy my family, enjoy life!
It's going to be a good year. :)
