We are in Virgina for Christmas! I love this temple!
We did a whole day at the temple here in D.C It was really neat and very spiritual. A very neat experience!

InstaDraw :]
Hey there,
This past weekend my mom and I went to Time Out for Women. All of the talks were fantastic but one stood out in particular to me. The woman spoke on making sure we take time out for ourselves, to find ourselves. I started to think about the time I spend on myself a day. I thought...ya 0 mins a day, which i'm sure will turn into a negative once I have kids. (I'm not counting exercise lets be honest that's NOT fun) She then asked us what we enjoyed when we were little. What brought us pure happiness. I couldn't think of anything. How sad, that I couldn't remember what brought me pure happiness as a child. I love Chris and I love spending my time with him, but as women I think we tend to help others and forget about ourselves. I am making it a goal to spend ten minutes a day drawing and then blogging. I enjoyed drawing when I was younger and I feel like I have time and can make it into something useful. As a result I am calling these posts Insta-Draw Blog posts! I will doodle a picture about my day and post every night before I go to bed. I will still be doing our weekly blog posts but will adding these new posts. I don't know who all looks at my blog but hopefully if you read it that you will enjoy them.

Where have we been?????
I am very aware that I am missing a week 21...That is because I can not remember for the life of me what we did.....Hopefully I can remember! I am so sorry that I am so behind. Life has been anything but boring around here. Between summer, vacations, moving, new job and just trying to find time to spend together we have been pretty busy haha. These aren't the greatest pages just because I did them so fast but hopefully they look ok. Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer!

Blogs I LOVE
Hey Everyone,
I know I don't blog very often. I also know I NEVER blog for any other purpose lately then to update our weekly scrapbook page. I thought I would be different today and quickly show you the blogs or websites that I literally visit daily. This probably makes me look like a Internet junkie but I promise I'm not. I just am one of those typical people that wish I could be like those wonderful women that I blog follow.
First up:
http://nieniedialogues.blogspot.com/
I am sure EVERYONE knows about this website. If you don't then I feel deeply sorry for you. This woman is an amazing mother, wife, and survivor. I love reading her blog! You really should check her out!
Second UP:
http://kellyhicksdesign.com/blog/
This girl is a fashioneesta (however you spell that funky word). I love her clothes! Every Friday she does a post about the cute clothes that she owns and wear to get them. She has super cute ideas for crafts and art.
Third Up:
http://www.thetomkatstudio.com/
This mom is one of my students moms. She had the greatest idea to start a website with party printables. She has done work for Martha Stewart, HGTV, and Pottery Barn! Super Cute!!
I think that is all of them for now. Of course they change weekly but these three are my daily blogs. I'm sure you will love them just as I do! If anyone reads my blog I wish I could send you some virtual chocolate!
Like I told Chris (my hubby) today, "You are like a box of fine See's candy, not like all those other cheap chocolates!"

Week 14
Hey all,
I don't know if it's just me but i'm feeling like all my pages are starting to look the same. I'm running out of new ideas. Hopefully they start to look better. I am struggling at takin pictures... Maybe I should try taking a picture a day? I Just don't know haha.
Week 12&13
Don't worry I'm still here! Life has just been a little busy around here. We just recently had our one year anniversary! Can you believe it? I know we both can't. Things are a little different than a year ago but we still love eachother even more than we did last year.
