Busy

Wow I feel like since March I have been so busy and non-stop events have happened. It won't end either till maybe the summer. Right now I'm preparing for two soccer seasons I'm in charge of, one for little kids and then my adult city league that I'm managing. My sisters wedding is in two weeks and I'm preparing things this week for a shower for her. I am preparing for a running race in Ogden Utah in the middle of May and trying to prepare Jenna and Brody for their first running race as well. I have Jay's birthday coming up next week and then Jenna's birthday in May which will entail her baptism as well. I'm trying to plan a trip to Calgary with one of our best friends and their kids sometime in the next few months. Our 10 year anniversary is in July and Jay and I have been trying to plan a trip of some sort to take, a little stressful. How much money do we want to spend, where do we want to go, when exactly are we going to go, who's going to watch the kids? Aaaaaah, my brain hurts thinking about all these things that are happening right now. Plus on top of all this I need to do my calling, which is Music Leader in Primary and support Jay in his calling of Stake Young Mens counselor.  I still have to do laundry, clean, cook, do dishes, change diapers (yup that's right, the boys are still in diapers), do swimming lessons with kids, do piano lessons with Jenna, read to my kids, have FHE, have family scripture study, read scriptures my self, go to the temple, play with the kids, think about family and friends more than myself, and do service for them.
Wow, can all these things really get done? I'm not sure!
I guess I need to take it one day at a time.
This is what I need to remember most of all. The temple will keep me on track.

The jean blanket I made my sister for her wedding, more like a picnic blanket.
Cole looks very creepy when he got into my mascara.

Brody one night when I thought he was asleep.

Inspired

Well I was talking to my friend and I realized that I can post even if I don't have pictures. I think I was always procrastinating because I hadn't taken any pictures, but I figured out that this is mostly for my family and close friends. They will probably read it even if I don't have pictures and won't judge me. lol
So lately we've been pretty busy with Amy's wedding and now it's on to Jessie's wedding. There is so much love in the air. Whenever there is a wedding in my family I can't help but remember when Jay and I got married. What a wonderful time......almost 10 years later and our life is so different (but in a good way). I am grateful that we as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are able to be sealed to our family for eternity. That makes me so happy.
Today we started General Conference and Jenna was so amazing. She took out paper and just started writing down points that each speaker was making. It was so awesome I figure I don't have to take notes anymore, I'll just read what Jenna wrote. Seriously, it blew me away. She is such a sweet little girl and she will be well prepared for baptism. Ahhhhh! kind of freaking out that I have an almost 8 year old.
Cole is coming into his little personality and he is such a character. It's hilarious to watch him be silly, but he also is so sweet. He is always the one to have everyone give a big hug after we have family prayer. He spreads his little arms out as wide as he can and yells "Group Hug!" How can we not love that little sweetheart?!
There I blogged. I can sleep soundly tonight.
