I've been behind again on blogging, Mom started a blog for her mission and Becky has been blogging lately which has pushed me back to wanting to get caught up. </div>

I started my by getting up and doing laundry, cleaning the kitchen and getting myself ready for the day (I've noticed that with my losing weight and becoming happier with myself that I have a lot more selfies, haha). Lipstick is a new thing for me but it makes a huge difference!</div>

I had seen something a couple of weeks ago on Facebook called Children's Entrepreneur Market. It is a farmers market style thing completely ran by kids (they manage the booths, are supposed to make the sales, use the money, etc.), I thought that it sounded like a cool idea and the event was happening here in Lehi at Thanksgiving Point. I had invited Libbey and the kids but she wasn't feeling up to going so I took Alexia and Sophie. It was super cool, over 150 booths, many of them with things that the kids had made themselves (games, food, slime, magic tricks, bracelets, etc.). </div>

After the market the girls and I went straight to Ben and Sonia's for Nadia's bridal shower. The girls got to play with Isabel. At one point Isabel came up and sat between Rachel and I and promptly fell asleep. </div>

After the shower we went home. Libbey said that she needed to go and check on Kiera that she should probably be awake by now. I walked in and found that Kiera was wide awake, sitting up and playing with her shoes. She didn't even notice that I was there taking her picture for a bit but as soon as she did she wanted me to help with her shoe and then get her out. </div>

We ended the evening by going swimming at the community pool. Kiera was so cute, she would stand at the edge of the pool and throw the diving ring for me to get and bring it back to her so that she would throw it again (talking about it I feel like a dog). </div>

I immediately called Davey and asked if I could leave to go get my mom (I realized that this was yet another blessing from this job, Davey said to go without hesitation, even asking if there was anything that he could do), I picked up mom at Hobby Lobby in Orem and took her to instacare. We found out that she had fractured her wrist (🙁) and it might cause her mission to be delayed. <br>
Derek was so nice, after he got off work he came and met us at instacare, drove back to my car at Hobby Lobby in Orem and then drove my car home for me. <br>
Today mom went to a different doctor and found out that she is going to have to have surgery on her wrist (the doctor said that the fracture is big enough that her hand could heal wrong and cause her to more likely have arthritis in her hand). She is supposed to have the surgery in a week and then has eight weeks of healing which means her mission will get pushed back about a month. <br>

It made me sad how many complaints that I heard towards the end of 2016 how terrible it had been and how people were more than ready for 2017. Last week Derek and I took a drive to Arches National Park and while we were driving we discussed how people were so negative towards the year, we talked about how it's a outlook thing, if you are looking for the bad you will always find it but the same goes if you are looking for the good you will find it as well (I prefer to learn from the bad and move forward reflecting on the good). </div>

After looking at them it drew me to my blog and I realized that I hadn't posted anything on here since August 2015. That kind of killed me because I used to be so good at blogging and as much as I love looking back at pictures I love even more looking at them with some dialog of what had happened/been said (which is one reason why I love instagram but I also don't like to bog down instagram with multiple posts in one day). So I've decided that I want to start back up blogging again, I may not be very good or consistent (I may end up just doing a monthly dump post... Which if I'm being honest are not my favorite but they are better than nothing. So here is to a great 2017!</p>

In March Derek, Kayla, and I went on a vacation to California. It was a fun week including a cruise and exploring the LA area. I can't believe that already 4 months have passed since we went! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The first night we got to California we checked into our hotel and then went exploring in what was supposed to be Chinatown. It was late by the time we got there so most things were already closed, we walked up down the streets a bit, got some smoothies and then went back to the hotel. The next day was Sunday, we went to Sacrament, visited a lighthouse and then went and checked into the boat! </div>

I'm always excited to see anything that has to do with Taiwan. This was on one of the buildings when we were walking through Chinatown in LA.<br />

We stopped at a lighthouse. There was some beautiful trees that were so inviting. Derek and Kayla both climbed up in them to take some pictures.<br />

I loved this lighthouse, it was so much like several of the ones in Oregon. A beautiful little home.<br />

I hadn't realized how much I had missed the coast. I think that I just stood in this spot for 10 minutes just breathing in the air, feeling the breeze, and watching the waves crash against the beach.<br />

The beginning of June brought my new clip pedals for my bike, I was super excited to get them in the mail but as I mentioned in a previous post I haven't yet put them on my bike. I'm excited to try them but super nervous at the sametime, I've seen/heard of too many people crashing and I already have balance problems. </div>

June brought a super exciting time...Little Red! Friday afternoon I got off work a little early and went and picked up Kayla. We then headed north to Lewiston where we had purchased the dinner. It was then a bit of an adventure finding Sallee's friends house but we got there and talked a little bit about the plans for the next day and then headed to bed (with the hopes of getting lots of sleep...I'm not sure that that happened for any of us). We got started a little later than we were wanting Saturday morning and I felt like I was going to be sick at the beginning (I get really bad nerves with anything like this). </div>

At one stop we discussed if we were going to make it to the 100 miles (there was a certain time cut off that you had to be to 70 miles in order to continue on and do the 100). I knew that Kayla and Sallee really wanted to push for it but I knew that I wouldn't be able to keep up the speed that was necessary to make it so I told them to push forward without me and go for the 100. I apparently had a much different experience then them. I stopped at the lunch spot where it was like a giant party going on, I looked around and saw some people sleeping and I heard about people stopping and taking selfies. While I was at the lunch spot Kayla's parents and brother came and stopped by to say hi. It was so nice to have someone come and cheer us on! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I figured that I had a couple of hours before Kayla and Sallee were going to be back so I wasn't going to go full speed, I didn't really feel like killing myself. After the lunch spot it kind of felt like non-stop hills, I spent a lot of the time telling myself that I could do hard things to make it up the hills but I did it! There was some beautiful views! </div>

I was about 8 miles from the end when I was suddenly done. Not only was I don't but I was angry and questioning why I was even doing what I was doing, I felt like if there was a support vehicle that came by I was going to just ask them to take me back. I said a small prayer to help me finish and have a better attitude. The next thing I knew I came to a group that I waited with to cross a road, this other lady said we should be almost done, one of the other ladies started going off about how we better be because she was done (and she had done the 50 miles). I realized that I must have sounded ridiculous in my head if I sounded anything like her and that I needed to get a better attitude. It still was hard but I am so glad that I finished! </div>

When I got home my Mom had mentioned that Libbey was feeling pretty miserable and she thought that she was going to be having the baby any day, so Sunday I decided that I was going to make dinner for everyone. Mom and I quickly made a delicious menu and even had some cute decorations (not bad for me deciding Sunday afternoon that I was going to do it...luckily we had the food to complete the menu). </div>

I had been thinking about it for awhile going back and forth when Derek got a new Mazda6. He and I talked all about why and how he had decided to do it, I did some other reading and went to Mazda to just look at the options that I had and decided to get one. I loved my old car but I'm super happy with my choice of new car! </div>

My newest "baby!" Derek's dad had an extra (or two) grills and offered me one of them. I've cooked a couple of things on it already and am enjoying learning new techniques/skills (I definitely have more learning to do though!). </div>

In March I was called as the Secretary in my ward's Relief Society Presidency. Not long after receiving that calling we were asked by a member of the Bishopric if we would be willing to speak in Sacrament Meeting after General Conference. We were just asked to prayfully listen to General Conference with our ward in mind of what we should speak on. I think that there is a litlte missing from this but this was the most complete copy that I could find in my e-mail. </div>

This past week I have so many thoughts running through my head on what to <span class="il">talk</span> about. That along with this, this being completely out of my comfort zone makes it for an overwhelming experience. I pray that my thoughts and ideas have come together so that they are able to teach and invite the spirit.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
There has been a country song lately that has stuck with me, the words go, “We all want what we ain’t got, our favorite doors are always locked. On a higher hill with a taller top, we all want what we ain’t got. We ain’t happy where we are, there’s greener grass in the neighbors yard. A bigger house and a faster car, we ain’t happy where we are. All I want is what I had, I’d trade it all just to get her back. She’s moving on, but I guess I’m not, Yeah, we all want what we ain’t got. We all wish it didn’t hurt, when you try your best and it doesn’t work. And goodbyes such a painful word, we all wish it didn’t hurt. Yeah I wanted the world until my whole world stopped, I guess we all what we ain’t got.” When I first heard this song I imagined it had a certain meaning , but recently I watched the music video and found a completely different one. At the beginning of the video several people are shown and they look to be very normal, just like you and me, by the end of the song one of the men that had been standing it shows he is wearing prison clothing, one of the woman took off a wig to reveal that she was bald from cancer, another it pulled back to show that she is sitting in a wheelchair.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
I mentioned that each of the people in the video looked normal, normal like you and I. After seeing their struggles, their hardships it is even more true. We have been taught that “our purpose in coming here (to Earth) is to be tested, tried, and stretched. That stretching comes in as many forms as there are individuals experiencing it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
In the 2002 April General Conference, Elder Holland spoke of the other prodigal son, he said, ““As he approaches the house, he hears the sounds of music and laughter. And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant. And the servant said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound. And the older brother was angry, and would not go in; therefore his father came out, and intreated him. You know the conversation they then had. Surely, for this father, the pain over a wayward child who had run from home and walled with swine is now compounded with the realization that this older, wiser brother, the younger boy’s childhood hero as older brothers always are, is angry that his brother has come home. No I correct myself. This son is not so much angry that the other has come home as he is angry that his parents are so happy about it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
He has yet to come to the compassion and mercy, the charitable breadth of vision to see that this is not a rival returning. Certainly this younger brother has been a prisoner- a prisoner of sin, stupidity, and a pigsty. But the older brother lives in some confinement, too. He has, as yet, been unable to break out of the prison of himself. He is up to his chin in water, but he remains thirsty nevertheless. One who has heretofore presumably been very happy with his life and content with his good fortune suddenly feels very unhappy simply because another has had some good fortune as well. “</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
The elder son was jealous, he felt that because younger son had succeed he must have failed. All too often we Satan tells us that “a gift given to another somehow diminishes the blessings we have received; if God is smiling on another, then He surely must somehow be frowning on us; if others grow in our sight, we must therefore be smaller; we need to be more handsome or more wealthy, more applauded or more admired.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
Elder Dale G. Renlund told of a young man named Curtis who was called to serve a mission. He was a great missionary, he was focused and worked hard. During his mission he was assigned a companion who was immature and not enthusiastic about getting the work done. One day while they were out tracting, Curtis looked back to see that his companion was not riding his bike but was walking it instead. Curtis was frustrated and silently said a prayer to the Lord expressing those frustrations, that because of his companions laziness they were not going to accomplish any of the work. He felt an impression as if God were saying, “You know, Curtis, compared to me, the two of you aren’t all that different.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
We are not very different when compared to the Lord but when we are in the midst of those stretching moments it can often feel like we are quite different from those around us. In my junior year of high school my dad and I were helping a family move, while helping with the cleaning my dad fell down a flight of stairs suffering brain injury. At that time I felt very different from every other Junior with the suffering and trials that came, while it seemed to me that most of the other students were wondering what they were going to do for the weekend I was asking things like “is my dad going to live, if he does live will he ever be the dad that I once knew?” While there were those that offered to help and support I felt that they could never understand nor know how to offer support as it wasn’t something that they had ever suffered. As Sister Stephens said, “I don’t completely understand your challenges. But through my personal tests and trials- the ones that have brought me to my knees- I have become well acquainted with the One who does understand, He who was acquainted with grief, who experienced all and understands all. Our opportunity as covenant-keeping daughters (and sons) of God is not just to learn from our own challenges; it is to unite in empathy and compassion as we support other members of the family of God in their struggles as have covenanted to do. When we do so, we also come to understand and trust that the Savior knows the difficulties of the way and can guide us through whatever sorrows and disappointments may come. He is true charity, and His love endureth forever in his part through us as we follow him.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
Yesterday I had the opportunity to attend with my Mom her Stake Relief Society Woman’s Conference, much like our stake held a month or so ago. There was a Sister who was giving a <span class="il">talk</span> about beauty, she spoke of how today’s society tries to tear people down, how we are “in a world that constantly compares people, ranking them as more or less intelligent, more or less attractive, more or less successful.” We have a loving father that “loves each of us-insecurities, anxieties, self-image, and all. He doesn’t measure our talents or our looks; He doesn’t measure our professions or our possessions. He cheers on every runner, calling out that the race is against sin, not against each other.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
We have each been sent here with different challenges or struggles and although we may not understand what you are going through, there is one person that does understand and that is Christ. Through him we “can and must be an important part of His giving comfort to those who need comfort.” We need to be the cheering squad for the family of God, as they accomplish things and especially as they struggle.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
Returning to the prodigal son the elder son felt it was a rival returning, but as Elder Holland has said, “we are not racing against each other.” We each have our own light, “a candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.” “There is something about a candle that makes it more spiritual than physical. A physical substance, when spread, becomes thin. Spirituality, when spread, expands and grows. When you use something physical, it diminishes. The more money you spend, the less you have; the more gasoline you use, the more empty your tank becomes; the more food you eat, the more you need to restock your pantry. But spiritual things increase with use. If I use my wisdom to teach, the students learn, and I come out wiser for it; if I share my love with another, I become more loving, not less. When you give a spiritual gift, the recipient gains, and you lose nothing. This is the spiritual property that candles share. When you use one candle to light another, the original candle remains bright. Its light is not diminished by being shared; on the contrary, the two candles together enhance each others brightness and increase light. We sometimes worry that we will stretch ourselves too thin. In matters of spirit, this is never the case. The more goodness we spread, the more goodness we have. Keep lighting your candle. There is an endless supply of light in your soul. You will never run out of goodness.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px; text-align: center;">
As Sister Stephens said we may not all be suffering from the same stretching opportunities personally but we are through those around us. I pray that we are willing to let our lights shine and “mourn with those that mourn; yea, and comfort those that stand in need of comfort, and to stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places that ye may be in, even until death, that ye may be redeemed of God, and be numbered with those of the first resurrection, that ye may have eternal life.</div>

I did my hair again in May, we did I think what Brea called was a sombre. She added some bleach to parts but not all the way from the roots. It's funny because in the last 3 days I've had 5+ people comment on my hair asking if I just did it. I was trying to decide if I wanted to get it done the last couple of weeks, I guess the comments are going to stop me for awhile from doing it again. I haven't seen this much of my natural hair color I think since high school. </div>

Again as I mentioned in my <a href="http://betherdsadventures.blogspot.com/2015/07/bryce-canyon.html">Bryce Canyon post</a>, the beauty of this earth is amazing! I hope that we can all slow down more to appreciate it. </div>

I hiked most the way with Alexia. She was so proud of herself that she went all the way up by herself and she didn't stop very much either. She even had parts where she wanted to run. I was quite proud of myself as well because Lexie and I were at the front of everyone the whole time, I never thought in my life that I would want to hike/enjoy it and be one of the ones at the front. So how much change there has been in my life and physical health/abilities. </div>

Continuing on with my <a href="http://betherdsadventures.blogspot.com/2015/07/food-truck-lovin.html">food truck obsession</a> Kayla and I went and got dinner one night when the food truck roundup was in Lehi. We tried two new places, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/madmactruck">Mad Mac</a> (the BEST macaroni and cheese that I have ever had...I had the Calavera Mac and Kayla had the Buffalo Chicken Macaroni) and for dessert we got <a href="http://www.latablecrepes.com/">La Table Crepes</a>, they honestly weren't my favorite but that could have been the combination as well. </div>

I finally got some biking shoes in May. They were having a sale at REI and they were 25%. I cannot believe what a difference having good shoes makes! Biking shoes are firmer and they offer better support. I love the colors on them too and the fact that they match my bike :) I've purchased the clips I just need to get brave enough now to actually put them on my bike/shoes. </div>

The Payson Temple had their open house in May and then the dedication. I was lucky to get to go with Libbey, Erick, Jacob, Alexia, Sophie, Kayla, and some of Kayla's family. The Temple was so beautiful. We are so blessed to have so many Temples on the Earth today (and more continually being built/announced). I need to work on attending more often than I do. </div>

I think that this was the first ever high school graduation that I attended that wasn't my own or siblings (of course I look at Josh like a little brother). It was so very different from my own graduation because of the size in schools. It seemed like the students went on and on forever. I can't imagine having that large of a graduating class/high school. </div>

A couple of months ago I realized that it's kind of silly that I live in a state where there are SO many different national parks and that I have never been to any of them. I bought a national park pass and decided that I need to make it a priority to visit as many as I could. My first one because I had been hearing and seeing so many pictures from it was Bryce Canyon. I made the decision that I was going to go on a Saturday and got up and went (Mom didn't like that I was going by myself...Derek and Kayla weren't available to to go and decided that she was going to go with me). The area was so beautiful and peaceful! I sometimes forget to stop and appreciate the natural beauties that Heavenly Father has placed on this earth and going to places like these makes me open my eyes and realize what there is. </div>

Brea and Darrell blessed Spencer in April. Afterwards they had lunch, after that (when everyone had left but Clark and I) we played games. They recently had gotten a new game, at the moment I couldn't tell you what it was called. It was fun but I'm always nervous playing games against Clark and Darrell as they always seem to dominate, somehow I actually wasn't in last place for all of the rounds!</div>

Mom went on a trip for a couple of weeks (I believe it was to visit Kyle...is it sad that I don't remember for sure). We've been getting a lot more use out of the Provo airport lately then we have the Salt Lake as Kyle found this cheap airline that flies from Provo to Oakland. </div>

Sonia's brother Andrei got married in June and Mom and I were asked to take their wedding pictures. I left early one afternoon to go take them at their luncheon. I love taking pictures but I was afraid that I wasn't good enough to be taking them for them, I hope that they were happy with what they got. </div>

I introduced Mom to <a href="http://waffluv.com/">Waffle Luv</a> finally and she was a big fan (of course!). I had told her that I had a recipe that was a copy cat recipe that I had been wanting to try. While we were there though someone was purchasing pre-made dough from them and we asked if they had any extra, they just happened to have some so we bought a dozen (that's how they sold it). It was an adventure to cook these to say the least. Because of the sugar in there it requires you to clean in between every waffle. We decided that in the future we will let the people of waffle luv cook our waffles for us. </div>

Easter morning we went and had breakfast with Ben and Sonia's family. It was a beautiful day and we ate outside. Sonia's family has a tradition of hard boiled egg wars, each person holds an egg and whacks them together, the person that cracks loses. My egg never cracked! I was the winner :)</div>

If you haven't ever tried Sweet Baby Ray's Honey Mustard it is AMAZING! They sell it at Costco (not all of the time) and not in any other store. I finally tracked some down on Amazon as it had been almost a year since Costco had sold any and I was out. I ordered a couple for me and one each for Kayla and Derek. A week or so after I had gotten it I was walking thru Costco and what do I see!? I wasn't very happy about that. </div>

Much of March seemed to be leading up and preparing for my California trip (I'm writing a separate post about that), the trip itself and then not much after the trip. I still seemed to find quite a few pictures though to prove that I still had some things happen. </div>

We had a freak snow storm one morning (it kind of seems that's what all of our snow has been this winter or at least a big chunk of it). Visual on the freeway was terrible, everyone was only going 20-25 (compared to my normal 80 was crazy slow) and you couldn't see the lanes and barely the car in front of you. </div>

We did a really fun art project at work. You use a salad spinner, paint, and coffee filters. Really simple, just place the coffee filter in the salad spinner, put some drops of paint and then spin...tada! The kids loved it, especially seeing how placing the dots in different patterns/quantities/etc. created different results. </div>

Mandy, Charissa, Brea, and I hosted a baby shower for Leah in March (and the cute twins coming soon!). I was asked to make the desserts and of course I had to experiment and try new things :) Mom had bought me a mini whoopie pie pan for Christmas. I had originally was going to try to use them for push pops but they didn't fit the ones that I had so I made sandwiches instead. It was fun because I got to practice my pipping skills too, I think they turned out pretty cute. </div>

The Mathews' came over to help with our traditional hanging of eggs in the trees for Easter. Unfortunately we got them up late this year so the trees had already begun to bloom, it makes it a little harder to put them on the tree and we had to do it on the smaller one in the corner of the yard but they still looked good. </div>

For the General Woman's Broadcast Libbey, Mom, Sonia, Sarah, and Katrina came with me to my Singles Ward to watch it, afterwards they had sundaes afterwards plus candy sticks on the table.

Lucy invited me to go to church with her one time. I've always been open to trying other churches so that I can understand someone else's beliefs and how can I expect them to want to hear about mine if I'm not willing to listen to theirs? It was an interesting experience, much of the time was spent singing and then this guy gave a sermon. It was actually a really good sermon but it was so weird to have a gospel discussion without using the Book of Mormon. </div>

Last Saturday I had the special opportunity to attend a special Relief Society Conference that my singles stake put on entitled "Live Up to Your Privilege." To be honest I wasn't so sure if I really wanted to attend, it was "early" Saturday morning and was 3 hours long plus lunch at the end, I'm grateful that I did end up deciding to attend though, I was spiritually uplifted and it was a great morning spent with Kayla as well. Sorry if my thoughts will seem scattered, these are just bits and pieces that I wrote down/remember/stood out to me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We all gathered in the Chapel first to hear a couple testimonies, special musicals, to watch a slideshow, and to hear from our Stake President (I love our my Stake Presidency, they are so wonderful and I constantly feel their love for us!). After the time in the Chapel we had the opportunity to choose 2 of 5 workshops (so not fair having to choose!).</div>

The first workshop that I attended was called "Communication and Relationship Building." The number one thing that they sister teaching the class seemed to keep repeating was Being Engaged with and where you are (ENGAGED-Participate, Establish a meaningful relationship).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She spent a lot of time discussing the 5 Languages of Love (if you haven't heard of them you can go <a href="http://www.5lovelanguages.com/">HERE</a> to read more about it or to take a test to discover what kind of Love Language you need). I've heard about the 5 Languages in several of my classes but have never really thought a ton about them or what I might be. She recommended that we take the test every 6-12 months ourselves because our love languages do change. One suggestion that she made that her sister does for her kids I loved. She said that most people/kids generally act out when they are not feeling loved so her sister will have her kids take the test to discover what kind of love language they need and work to fill that kind of love for them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She also showed this clip, I loved the idea and loved the different comments they make, especially the old couple. </div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The second class was called "Trust in the Lord, His Timing, His Way, His Will" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She started by reading this quote from Richard G. Scott, "We become what we want to be by consistently being what we want to become each day." There was more to the quote but this is the part that she had highlighted and repeated several times through the whole workshop and it continues to stand out to me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She had run out of time but told us to go home and watch this song, Lemonade by Alex Boye (she said it was a good song but she also remarked on his crazy pants :D), somehow I had never heard this song before but I really liked it. After that she was talking about are we more concerned with what is not happening than what is happening which fit it with what the song was about. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After I had listened to the song I also read the notes that Alex Boye had put under the movie and felt that it really did go well with what she was talking about...</div>

I've always wanted to write my own Bobby Mcferrin, "Don't worry, be Happy" song. CHECK!! There is a part in the song that says "So many miracles are happening each day, if I can just get out of my own way.</div>

A few years ago, even though I had so many amazing things happening in my life, I was so caught up in things that were NOT going right, that I stopped appreciating the things that WERE going right. I would start making a habit of chasing the storms and not the sunlight, and started getting used to feeling sorry for myself. whenever bad stuff would happen to me, i would say things like "Yep, of course that would happen to ME and nobody else!!</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I would always be waiting for something amazing to happen to me before I felt good about myself. "If I get that raise, THEN life would be amazing, or if I found the right spouse, or if I get that record deal, or if I win that contest, or got the new car, THEN things would be amazing. I was living in the future and NOT enjoying the PRESENT.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Things started to change for me when I came across a book called "The Magic of believing".</div>
</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I started to change my way of thinking and realized that we don't have to wait for something amazing to happen. WE ALREADY ARE AMAZING!! I would say that to myself often and then i would start seeing amazing things happen in my life. so glad I found that little truth in my life. It has made ALL the difference.</div>

Im learning now that when bad things happen out of our control, it can either leave us either bitter, or better for going through it. I once heard someone say, "Life can truly be bittersweet. But whatever you bring attention to, expands, so choose wisely."</div>

A big purpose of this class was using our patriarchal blessings. "Your Patriarchal Blessing is a window into who you are and who you can become."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She told of having talked to a friend of hers who has been a patriarch for many years and she asked him what he tells people that are receiving their blessings. He told of a suggestion that he always gives and I thought that it was a very unique and good idea. He tells them at the beginning to make several copies of their blessings,</div>
<br />
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;">On the first copy mark the blessings and talents that are mentioned.</li>

He said then when you are having a bad day go look at the blessings and talents copy. Struggling with a calling, look at the counsel, etc. They always say that every time you read your blessing it seems like you discover or notice something different, I think that looking at the blessing with different parts highlighted will also help.</div>

Sunday in Relief Society it was really nice, they had asked one person that had attended to spend 5 or so sharing some of their thoughts/notes, so even though we weren't able to attend all of the classes we were able to hear some about them. Here are my bullet point notes from them: </div>
<div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;">Don't worry yourself over which you have no control.</li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Practice daily receiving personal revelation so we know how the Lord speaks with you. You need to have a desire to know and receive revelation. </li>
<li style="text-align: center;">True Beauty</li>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;">We shine when we have the spirit with us. </li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Deep beauty is Happiness, Bathing in the Spirit.</li>
</ul>
<li style="text-align: center;">Circumstances can only determine so much-it's our attitude, choices, reaction, etc.</li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Emotions take time, they take work and A LOT of talking. </li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Be a good listener.</li>
<li style="text-align: center;">You have to take care of yourself before you can help others. </li>
<li style="text-align: center;">If you are helping someone, you need to have someone that you can talk to. </li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Our patriarchal blessing is like a recipe, we have the choice to disregard it completely, follow almost completely, or follow it 100% and live up to the full potential of the recipe. </li>
<li style="text-align: center;">We have a vision of what we want to become through our actions and living each day that we can accomplish that vision. </li>
</ul>

After all of my biking last year I made the goal of biking 500 this year. I had figured that I would need to bike 42 miles a month average in order to do that. I started to really think about that and I realized that during the "winter" months but during the summer months that should be really easy to accomplish and I </div>

<span style="text-align: center;"> decided that I instead was going to change my goal to 1000 MILES! It still seems crazy that I am setting myself a goal like this but I am working hard to make sure that I accomplish it! As of my ride yesterday I've done over 115 miles.

January, already the year is off to a great start! I'm loving this "winter!" (I feel a little bad when I get pictures sent from my sister-in-laws about how the snow goes up to the trampoline in Boston and my brother in New York is having to put two jackets on to go take the garbage out, when yesterday I went on a bike ride, wore capris and sandals, got a pedicure and just basked in the high-50's temperatures). I am looking forward to what 2015 is going to bring!</div>

When I went and got my headlights done in January I did it at the Mazda dealership in Orem, of course I had to look at the beautiful new cars...look at all of those gorgeous Mazda6's!</div>

The one bad thing about all of this warm weather this year is that Ice Castles weren't able to be open very long, they only ended up being open 3 days, one weekend which kind of stunk for them because they moved locations this year and made it bigger and better. We were lucky though and it worked out that we were able to get up there on Monday, the last day that they were open. Just as last year it was amazing, I can't believe all of the work that goes into it. These pictures don't even begin to do it justice. </div>

Derek and I went and did a bike ride up North and on our way back we stopped at RC Willey to look at different appliances for an condo that Derek was looking at. This place was huge, I could quite easily get lost in there (I feel like we walked in several circles) and it was fun to daydream, I realized that I have quite expensive tastes if allowed. I've always said that my kitchen would be where I would spend the most money on if I were designing it. (There was a side by side fridge and freezer with each unit being separate and about the size of a regular fridge. I could just imagine myself standing in front of it with both doors open)</div>

One night we didn't know what to do and we somehow ended up at the nicklecade, we got these 3 snails as our prizes, we had some entertaining races across the tables with them and they now sit on the counter looking cute as ever :)</div>

January doesn't seem to have been as full or at least I didn't take as many pictures but I know that it was a good month full of bike rides, movies, lots of laughter at work and outside of work, time spent with family and friends, making fun plans for the year.</div>

I realized recently that I always tell people when asked how long I've had my car that I always say a little over a year but in reality in April it will be 2 years! And while this car may not be brand new that I could do things to make it seem newer and nicer. It started in December. I've been feeling like lately when I drive at night it almost seemed like I didn't even have my lights on which worried me. I asked Derek for opinions on what to do to help it and he suggested that I could get something done called Headlight Restoration, he had seen that Walmart had started doing them recently so I tried going to them but it didn't work. I ended up going to the Mazda dealership in Orem and although it cost more than I was hoping I am super happy with A. How they look (if you can't tell the top is before and the bottom is after)--they're super shiny! and B. I have lights when I drive at night! Still even now over a month later every time I see my headlights they make me smile. </div>

I had also noticed lately how nasty my seats were looking and was thinking about getting my seats cleaned when Derek sent me a link about a mobile car cleaning company that was on citydeals. I was a bit hesitant but it was a good price and again I'm super happy with the result! This is my back middle seat before and after. The guy also called me out to my car when he was part way done to show a comparison of what the seats were like (he had done half of a seat so I could see). He also showed me the water after cleaning them. </div>

We are already halfway through February and I realized that I should get my December and January posts done before I finished up another month (more like I needed to get it done before I forgot what actually happened :D)!</div>

The last several years Elf on the Shelf has become quite popular and this year some of the kids begged the owner Lynn to get one, she decided she was in a nice mood and got one for us while she was on one of her runs to Costco (but of course it wasn't the original, it had a cloth face which caused some major meltdowns in my kids, but that's a different story). I got to participate in some of the helping of the moving of our elf, one night he decided to hang out in the cereal. The kids would get so excited to find out where it was in the morning or to show me where it was when I got to work, they would even come down to say good-night to it if they were taking a nap. I don't think it will be something that I want to do in my future home but it was still fun to watch the kids react to it at work. </div>

We tried an art project where you put white glue and then cover it with salt. Once it dries you put drops of paint and watch it spread across. The original experiment said to use smaller like table salt but I wanted to see what it would be like using different sized salt. The kids loved doing it and wanted to do several, I just loved this one because it came looking out like spongebob so of course I had to take a picture to send Derek. </div>

I've been hearing for several years about the <a href="http://www.festivaloftreesutah.org/">Festival of Trees</a> and thought it would be interesting to go to. Kyle, Mom, Derek, and I went one Friday evening afterwork (that night traffic was TERRIBLE! when I was leaving work I looked at my phone to see how long it said it was going to take to get home and it normally takes 15 minutes but this time it was an hour and 34 minutes!). It was pretty neat, I couldn't believe how many different trees, wreaths, houses, and gingerbread houses there were! I enjoyed mostly just looking at everything and didn't take very many pictures...</div>

I of course HAD to take a picture of this one though, it's the house from Anne of Avonlea/Anne of Green Gables. I Love Love Love that story and I was super impressed with how the house looks!</div>

When we went to the Festival of Trees they were selling scones, they sounded really good, but the line and price was ridiculous. Derek, Kayla and I were walking separately from Mom and Kyle and when we came up Derek asked Mom when she was going to make some and she said they were just having a conversation about her making them the next day. Mom made the dough and we cooked up some delicious scones. </div>

Draper had a tree this year that they lit up and titled the Tree of Life. It was quite amazing how much it actually looked like the tree that has been put in paintings/drawings to represent the Tree of Life from Lehi's Dream. It was really beautiful. When we went though there were lots of people walking/running around and it was quite loud so it was hard to appreciate the spiritual representation. </div>

Every Christmas season the First Presidency does a Christmas devotional, Ben and Sonia invited us over for dinner and to watch it with them (awesome side note on that, the devotional this year was December 7 and I went on a bike ride that afternoon before going over to Ben and Sonia's). I had been brushing Sarah's hair when Isabel took the brush to brush Uncle Kyle's hair. It was cute!</div>

Libbey and Erick went on a trip to Florida in December, while they were gone Mom and I watched Alexia and Sophie for a couple of days. They got to come work with me for part of the time. They did so well, immediately making new friends and having fun the whole time. The second day when I took Sophie to her class they were playing outside, she went straight out to play and didn't even look back at me once she started to play. </div>

We heard from Derek that one of the nights that the girls were at our house that it was cheaper to go see the Lights at the Zoo, I'd never been to the Zoo before and thought it sounded like something fun and different to do. So Kayla and I bundled up the girls and we headed to the Zoo. Somehow we got lucky and got a parking spot only on the second row (the side of the road was lined with cars leading up to the Zoo) and as we were getting out of the car Kayla found an unopened package of glow sticks. The girls loved them!</div>

They became fast friends with Kayla, holding her hand most of the time or wanting to be carried by her. The best was when we got back in the car and were on our way home. Kayla said alright everyone that knows my name raise your hand, I raised my hand but Lexie didn't (Sophie had already fallen asleep). We told her Kayla's name and then she asked if we could ask the question again, she was ready this time. </div>

Another experiement...we made our own window clings! All it took was gelatin, food coloring, water, and we added glitter. We mixed it up the first day and then the next we cut it out and put it on the windows. The kids cut them out and then they got to go pick which window they wanted to put it on, it was fun going through the whole building and seeing them everywhere. </div>

Just as high up with fireworks for me comes looking at Christmas light displays. One night Kayla and I went down to Spanish Fork to their <a href="http://www.spanishfork.org/newsevents/events/festivaloflights/">Festival of Lights</a>, it wasn't very expensive and had so much to look at (so much better than Thanksgiving Point in my opinion). </div>

During the movie he would randomly say "Waddle Waddle" (what they call Penguins) and then just start giggling. </div>

One of the only days that we had a little bit of snow the kids asked if we could go outside and play in the snow for a little bit, we bundled them up and went outside. Miss Lucy said get Miss Beth and all of the kids turned on me and this is what happened. </div>

New Years Eve is Mom's birthday, we ended 2014 with dinner, games and talking at Ben and Sonia's. It was fun but I was more than ready for bed, we stayed for counting down and cheering at midnight and then I think I was in bed by 20 minutes after midnight. </div>

I feel like this year has gone by faster and faster. Derek, Kayla and I discussed it last night we said that you always feel like that at the end of the year but I have felt like this year (even as it was happening) has gone by fast, we also considered that it could be that we are getting older and that could be why it is feeling like it has been going faster. Example in point: I am just barely getting to putting up my November post and December will be over in just a few days! Can you believe that the year is almost over?!</div>

We did lots of fun different projects at work but this was one of my favorite, it was a little messy but can it really be much fun if it isn't a little messy :)? What you do is you put a little bit of paint on paper and then plastic wrap it, then the kids can smear it around and mix the colors to their hearts delight. Once they are finished you just remove the plastic wrap and let it dry (I would suggest using the thickest paper you have if you try doing it). The kids really enjoyed it and I liked the different results that we ended up with. </div>

Libbey was out of town for my birthday and Mom was sort of otherwise occupied so when everything was a bit calmer and back to normal at the beginning of November they took me to get pedicures and then out to dinner. Can you believe that I was still wearing sandals in November and that it was warm and beautiful!</div>

One of the things that came in our goody bag from doing the Million Miles at Miller bike ride was tickets to a Jazz game, I had never been to one before. Sadly we lost but it was lots of fun.

At the end of October I switched from Iphone and got a new phone! I got the LG G3, I know I'm weird and I don't absolutely love one and hate the other like most people, I just get used to like whatever I have. Part of getting a new phone meant getting new cases, I was super happy when these finally came. </div>

My Mom and Dad's anniversary is in November and they always had a tradition of going to Dairy Queen to share a peanut buster parfait. So this year, Derek, Kayla and I joined mom in going there. Afterwards when we got home mom got out this stuff and told us to draw pictures on the windows, the first picture is Moms, the second Kaylas, third Dereks (which it says "Derek is the favorite!" if you can't tell) and the fourth is mine. I love just seeing our different personalities and interpretations of what to do in this. </div>

I don't remember when but we decided to go on a bikeride one Sunday afternoon and it was 38 degrees! I thought it was going to be the last ride of the year (which I have since been proven wrong because we have gone on 2 or 3 others since). It was quite a new thing to me to go riding with earmuffs and lots and lots of layers. It was fun though, even more exhilarating than a normal ride :) </div>

It was my first time driving solo with my bike on my bike rack so I was a little nervous especially since what happened last time I had the bike rack on my car so I drove very slowly and watched the bike the whole time (I think Derek must have thought I was crazy because he was driving in front of me and I was driving way slower than I normally do). </div>

We had parent teacher conferences at work for those who are in preschool (so not my age group) and the other teachers had wanted some kind of treat to have for the parents but had forgotten, luckily for them I keep bags of cookie dough in the freezer and my Mom was so nice to bring the dough on her way to lunch. The building smelled SOOOO good!</div>

November was a fun movie month. We went and saw Big Hero 6 in 3D (we hadn't planned on it but the time we were going to watch was sold out and we found out that 3D was going to be 30 minutes later and cost the same amount so we were like why not!). I've only watched one other movie before in 3D and that was like 6 years ago in Taiwan and it made me super sick, I think they've improved their technology because it didn't make me as sick this time. </div>

Derek's dad had purchased tickets to the <a href="http://www.saltydinnertheater.com/">Salty Dinner Theater</a> and invited us to come. I had no clue what to expect but we went and saw Cinderella at the Spaghetti Factory in Orem. It was hilarious and awkward all rolled into one. I would definitely recommend it but don't go expecting a normal dinner theater (example: the stepsisters were both played by men). </div>

Like I mentioned November was a BIG movie month, especially because Mockingjay came out!!! We had originally planned on going opening night but we were a little slow in getting tickets and Kayla was not willing to pay to sit in the front row so we decided on Saturday after opening instead. That morning Kayla and I had a marathon, watching the first two before we went and watched the third. </div>

Katrina and I went Black Friday shopping, it was fun to be out with her but I think I'm discovering that I'm not in love with it as I used to be. I didn't go as crazy in buying stuff as I have in the past. Mom and I did go back out shopping Friday afternoon and my big purchase (that I hadn't really planned on) was a new mattress. I've had it for a year, Leah had had it for 4 years before that and she had bought it used. I've been having a lot of back problems lately and hope that this will help.

Every weekend in September and part way through October <a href="http://www.snowbird.com/">Snowbird</a> hosts Oktoberfest, mostly it's for those that enjoy drinking but I had heard that they had some other booths and activities for everyone to do. The last weekend they were open Kayla and I went up to see what it was all about. They did have some other stuff that wasn't drinking but the food was outrageously and the other options were very limited, it is definitely a drinking persons heaven. Highlights from that day were having a lady spill beer on me in the bathroom line (she didn't notice that she was spilling but this guy that was sitting beside the line told her that she had spilled on the ground and that she needed to hold onto that rare commodity) and the beautiful colors of the trees changing. I had hoped to make it back up there to go hiking through the orange and greens.<br />

These pictures don't even do justice of how gorgeous it was up there, the roads were packed up and down the sides with people parked to go hiking, biking, and just to take pictures.<br />

My Grandma passed away on October 14. It ended a long journey for her (<a href="http://sundbergolpinmortuary.com/betsey-elizabeth-williams/">95 years!</a>). The funeral was held the Saturday following on the 18th. It was a great funeral where I learned several things about her that I never knew and from those that were non family I could feel of the love that she had for others and others had for her. After the funeral and luncheon all of the grandchildren were invited to go back to Grandma's house and pick out items that we wanted to keep. It was so much fun being there, at one point there were 10 or so of us sitting in the living room just going through memories around Grandma and Grandpa and just growing up as a family in general. Sophie found a box of jewelry that she wanted to try everything on.<br />

The 19th was my birthday, it's kind of difficult to do lots of stuff when your birthday is on a Sunday so Derek and Kayla decided to take me out to do stuff on Saturday. We were all finishing things up so didn't get started quite as early as we were hoping (we were going to do a bike ride or hike) so instead went for a drive up AF Canyon, the colors were absolutely gorgeous. I love living somewhere that actually has a fall, the colors changing and crunchy leaves make me so happy. After the drive we stopped at a stream and walked around, when we were coming up there was someone that stopped us to ask if we could jump-start their jeep for them and it randomly happened to be Derek's aunt and uncle. We finished the night with a campfire, it is so peaceful and relaxing just sitting by the campfire.<br />

Kyle was awesome and made my birthday dinner. He let me pick out the recipes (I picked this super yummy pasta recipe and we had two different kale things, strangely I loved the kale slaw/salad from Costco). The cake was this super yummy with fresh strawberries and fresh whipped cream stuff too! I also went to church in the morning and then afterwards Kayla and I went on a bikeride, it had been way too long- I was missing the wonderful feeling of the sun on my face and the wind blowing through my hair. Ben/Sonia Family and Leah joined us for dinner and afterwards I got to go on another quick bikeride, I rode home with Katrina so she didn't have to go home in the dark by herself.<br />

My ward had a combined activity with Kayla's ward, they were doing a pumpkin carving contest. We also invited Derek. The original plan was that we were going to all work on the same pumpkin but it became quickly clear that Kayla was going to work on her own, luckily Derek had brought another pumpkin from home and he and I worked on one together. I'm pretty sure that I have carved a pumpkin before but I don't really remember doing it. It was super fun and I strangely didn't get grossed out by the feeling of taking the guts out of the pumpkin. Derek cut out the mouth and I did the rest of it, I was freaking out that it was getting all messed up and it did end up looking not completely bad. Derek said it kind of looked like it was scared of itself. When they were judging they looked at ours several times and it seemed like we might have actually come close to winning, but it was still fun and I'm probably should be glad that I didn't actually win because the prize was a bag of candy.<br />

I'm not sure if I should admit this but one of my kids decided that I needed to have a boyfriend and took it upon himself to help me by signing me up for a dating website. I find it rather entertaining, he is rather insistent about it and asks me everyday if I've gotten a boyfriend yet and when I reply no he asks who I've talked to and who my favorite is. I figured it would be something that would end the next day but still a couple of weeks ago he is still concerned about me being boyfriendless.<br />

Derek's dad had a timeshare up at Snowbird and we were invited up to stay the night on the last night that they were up there. It was so nice, we headed up Friday night after I got off work. When we got there Kayla and I put our stuff in our room, it was pretty much a second hotel room connected to theirs, we even had our own entrance if we wanted. Derek's dad had dinner ready for us, it was so yummy. After that we went swimming in the heated outdoor pool and then the hot tub, so relaxing. We started a movie but everyone was falling asleep so we all went to bed.<br />

This was the view from our balcony (one of four that was in their timeshare), all of the colored leaves had fallen off but it was still a beautiful view.<br />

Snowbird was having a customer appreciation day Saturday morning, you could donate a couple cans of food and ride up the tram for free. This was only my second time going up to Snowbird so of course I had never ridden the tram before, a couple of cans of food was so much nicer than the $18 it normally costs to ride up. It was really impressive riding up and I can only imagine what it looks like when it is all covered with snow. I took this picture from the top, it was so beautiful, I couldn't stop starring out at it, it made for a great thinking spot.<br />
<br />
Apparently I stood there for awhile and everyone thought that it made for a good picture, Derek, his Dad, and Kayla all took pictures of me standing there without me knowing about it until later. The first one is one that Derek took on his phone and edited and then the second and third Derek's dad took on his camera (I have serious camera envy of his camera---it is AMAZING!).</div>

Derek's stepmom gets free tickets to Lagoon because they always go to Lagoon for their employee day, she had given Derek a couple of tickets that were expiring this weekend. I had never gone before and we decided that splitting the 3rd ticket would be much better than each of us having to pay for a full price ticket. When we got home from Snowbird everyone had somethings that needed done so we split up for a couple of hours and then met back at my house to go to Lagoon. I discovered that I am most definitely not a crazy rides person, I think that I bummed Kayla and Derek out a bit because there wasn't a lot of them that I was willing to do but I did go on several roller-coasters (the ones pictured below). </div>

<br />
We did do a couple of haunted houses there as well. They were quite entertaining, in the first one Kayla was in the front and for some reason Derek said her name, one of the actors heard it and started calling her name- her name followed us for awhile over several actors. Derek and I were laughing so much. </div>

Kayla had been telling me that I needed to make cupcakes so last Sunday I decided to make some. I used it more of a chance to play with pipping frosting. I thought that I needed to use a smaller tip but I think that next time I will use a slightly larger tip to give it more, but considering that I've never had any learning I think they look pretty good. </div>

Last Monday my ward was going to <a href="http://www.cornbellys.com/">Cornbelly's</a> (and Kayla's randomly decided to go too), so we went together. I've never been to a cornmaze before. Kayla figured it all out and I kind of just followed her through, it was fun but I would go again but I haven't decided that it is required to be part of my yearly celebrations (unless of course my ward pays for it again :D).<br />

We did awesome, we even went in order from sign to sign without having to ask for help from the maze police and we didn't cut through the corn!<br />

I held my Halloween party for my school age kids on Thursday because I knew that on Friday most of my kids wouldn't be there and I didn't want them to be disappointed if they missed it and I knew that most kids would behaving their school parties on Friday and I wanted to be unique :D We had our snacks be pumpkin patches (I was supposed to have crushed the oreos but A. I was lazy and B. I realized that it would have been a lot messier to give the kids crushed oreos to make their pumpkin patches). Most of the kids just ate their pudding out of the snack packs and then ate the candy separate but I did have a couple of kids that actually put their patches together. After snack we played outside until the rest of the school age kids came back from school, we bobbed for apples and then played a couple of other games.<br />

Once we got lower in numbers the kids got to play in the haunted house that Jenn and Sarah had created for the preschool Halloween party on Friday. Again that I work with super creative people, the kids absolutely loved it!<br />
<br />
Kayla's brother is in marching band and this weekend was state competition and regional competition in St. George. Her parents are part of the band boosters and so were down there all weekend, they had gotten a hotel room and invited us to join them. Friday because it was Friday and Halloween numbers were down really fast, I was able to leave at 4 when we got down to 8 kids. I had everything packed and helped mom with some stuff until Kayla came to pick me up, we helped hand out some candy to the first trick or treaters and then we headed off.<br />

We brought our bikes and her parents brought theirs, of course we weren't going to leave them on our cars. It made me smile every time I walked into our room and saw the four full-size bikes, of course Kayla and I realized that we had over $5000 worth of stuff in our room and that did make us a little nervous with house keeping going in and out. </div>

When we arrived to St. George Friday night we went straight to Dixie College to catch the awards ceremony and to help put away all of the props into the trailers as they were leaving locations for Saturdays performance. Much of our Saturday was spent at a local high school watching band performances, as I didn't grow up with a band let alone a marching band I had no clue what to expect. It was AWESOME! Each band spends the whole year working on one performance that they work on and improve as the year goes on. This is a recording of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-0YgyJ6N4A">Westlake's performance</a> from a different competition this year (you can skip to minute and a half unless you want to listen to someone having a conversation about the length of some girls hair).<br />

The day started out crazy windy and then added rain to the mix. During Westlake's performance it started raining hard right in the middle of their show but almost to the end a beautiful double rainbow. Westlake made it through the preliminaries and into the finals, we were so proud of them. They are a fairly new school and band and seem to be getting bigger and better every year, two years ago they got 10th and this year they got 4th! We had hoped that they would get 3rd but 4th in the region is awesome (they had schools representing from Utah, Washington, Idaho, California, Texas, New Mexico, Nevada and there might have been others that I can't remember)!<br />

We ran back to the hotel between the preliminaries and finals to grab a blanket because it had gotten rather cold. While I waiting for Kayla to grab something I looked outside and saw this beautiful sunset.<br />
<br />
Sunday we tried going to a YSA ward for church but we found out too late that the address they had on the churches website did not exist, we did find another church but because the YSA wards were meeting a strange time the church had already started. We knew that Kayla's parents wouldn't be ready yet to leave (we had hoped to go on a bikeride) so we decided to give them more time and went to the St. George Temple. It was a beautiful walk around the grounds and we took some pictures (of course :D)<br />

For Alexia's birthday Libbey asked me if I would be willing to make the birthday cake. The only parameters that she gave me were that it be chocolate and girly (I was a bit bummed with the chocolate requirement--I was hoping that I could do an ombre of pinks, you know the ultimate girly). I immediately started having ideas in my head of what I wanted to do. My original plan was to make chocolate flourishes that I could stand up and make 3D on top of the smash cake and when I went to search I found this other great idea instead. It's actually pretty simple (I would highly recommend having a second person to help press and wrap the chocolate cage around the cake---you can find my post on how it's made <a href="http://betherdscookingadventures.blogspot.com/2014/10/chocolate-cake-cage.html">HERE</a>) and can be quite pretty and add such a nice touch to the cake. </div>

I was a little disappointed with the butterfly, I had tried coping a rhinestone pattern (which was absolutely gorgeous!) but the pearls that I used were a lot larger than the design and they used 3 different sizes in the original so I ended up just doing the outline of the butterfly and then dropping pearls randomly. </div>

So I didn't do complete chocolate, I had to get some kind of surprise in (I hadn't told them I was doing the pink cake and they didn't know about it until the cut into it!)</div>

Day 3 and destination 2 brought us to Ensenada Mexico! When we got off the ship we walked through a building full of little shops (that were already tempting the shopping senses of the girls) and found that they had lots and lots of buses lined up to take us into downtown for $1 or $2. On the way there the guide told us all about the different tours that we could take and how they would charge us cheaper, blah, blah, blah! (though of course it was cheaper then the prices that the ship offered but we still could get it cheaper!) With lots of people (and different nap schedules) it is sometimes hard to decide on what to do, we had heard about a blowhole and decided that is what we would all do. We walked a couple of blocks away from where the bus dropped us off and we found a nice guy that was willing to drive us all out there with his buddy for a very reasonable price.</div>

In case you didn't know Jacob is a big fan of superheroes, when he saw these cool masks/capes I think that it was love at first sight :) He was so happy to get it and there was a bit of a panic when we were getting out of the vans and it could not be found at first.</div>
