Just some random thoughts today...

A breath of fresh air... the air yesterday was dusty, smoky, and nasty to breath... despite the fact that its almost April, I am glad is snowed this morning. As I walked across campus today I took a deep breath of the new, clean air... so refreshing... *another deep breath* feels good... :) Its time to purge... I cannot wait to finish the semester so I might get that spring cleaning of my house and life done!

I don't know if I say this enough... but I love my family! And am so grateful for the blessings that you all have been in my life... There's nothing like realizing the fragile existence that we live here on earth to reorganize your priorities... So know that you are loved! My prayers are with you in your daily struggles and triumphs! May God be watching over you!

The veil has been very thin this past week. The Spirit has been working overtime, especially with the LeBaron family this weekend. But it has been amazing to watch the strength and light emanating from those who are mourning the loss of their beloved father and grandfather and husband. I have been so impressed and inspired by the amazing family that I have been with for such a short time... they have been hit hard, but they are stronger for it. I love you all!

That's it... honestly, I just needed a short ten minute break before hitting the research again... Thanks for reading... lots of love!

From nutrition to....

Is it possible to have nutrition kill you? I swear, all I've thought about for three days straight is the three nutrition tests to take this week... not to mention the 4th last week... (and one in history due by Saturday)

With that out of the way... I have been thinking a lot about nutrition... and health... and food... and that of course leads to my fridge, then my cupboards, then those cans in that cupboard, to food storage. (I know, my brain is a little... sidetracked...it is a symptom of too much studying...) Anyway, I am excited to get a handle on this food storage thing and am looking for some great ideas on how to get started... We have started collecting random food stuffs... but how do I know whether or not we have reached our goal of a 3 month supply of food storage?

sadly... this is not my food storage... we don't have that much room in our whole house! :) But hey, a girl can dream right?


That's all I have time for now, but there is a light at the end of this test tunnel and it's looking rather sunny... oh the posts I can post then. ;) Thanks for reading all!

Colby and Megan have finally tied the knot and we are so excited for them! Their wedding day was so special and it was fun to go to my first wedding since my own... The sealing was wonderful and the food delicious. It was fun to see the love they have for each other and from their families. We wish them the best in their new life, and good luck with that wall...

Bryce and I tied the knot only a five short months ago and yet I felt that it had been so long for me... :) So naturally we went home and pulled out our pictures... :) I was reminded most of all about how much I love my husband and how much he loves me!

This weekend was also Lindsey's 18th Birthday. It was fun to be a part of that! I smiled when Dad had a hard time with the "I'm now a woman" comment. Linds is the first girl to get ready to leave home and she is going to excel here at the Y. :) Yay!

Life is still busy as always for me, so this post is short. Just wanted to post a quick update (and take a short break from studying).
