whirl wind

This weekend left me breathless....but as momma Light pointed out I always make time for myself and God.

Friday came and went as we did a little Christmas shopping and then got home to bed to get ready for a very crazy Saturday.

Saturday morning I was up by 6am and off to a womens community group at 7am to focus on my life, God, and to enjoy a little scrapbooking. Then at 10am it was off to Liz's last volleyball game. Whew they kicked butt and took names!!! I am sad to see the season end but on the same note am glad to have that time back that was used for practices and weekend games. Then its home for lunch and showers only to head out again for a 1pm gymnastics meet with Mikaela. She took 2nd place all around and 1st place on floor. Also took 2nd place on bars, beam, and vault. Nothing more to make a momma proud! Nope not done yet...this got over at 4:30pm and we headed to the event center to see Oregon Trail (the girls school) get awards for Lego Robotics. Our school took championship and are now invited to Altanta, Georgia for Nationals.http://www.usfirst.org/community/fll/default.aspx (this is a website explaining lego robotics a little more). After this we headed to the Eastridge shopping mall with the "Drumming Circle" They performed at the mall until 7:30pm (both girls are involved, Liz being a drummer and Mikaela being a Mascot). Now its time for home and to bed only to get up the next morning and head to church. If you are exhausted just reading this...you can only imagine how Ken and I feel physically:) We love it and would not change it for the world. Next weekend: a weekend for Ken and Theresa!!!!

If I have learned anything in the past months....if you cant find out who you are and do something for yourself you cannot be a good mother or wife. If you and your husband do not have a "relationship" you may struggle to have a good family. Find time alone and with your spouse just to remember why you have children!

This upcoming week is my next rotation for fieldwork, lucky for me I get to stay in Casper. I will let you know how it goes. This is our mental health rotation, I am very excited!

Love to all!!!

I am posting pictures from this weekend on the Walgreens website (to many to add to this). Watch for you invite to see these photos. If you do not get an invite let me know so I can get it to you!
