Raelyn

Tonight I went down to see Char, Steven, Raelyn and Sam. We had an early Cinco de Mayo dinner. I love getting together with them every so often for Sunday dinners. I'll miss Char this next couple of months as they head down to Houston for the summer!!

FaceTime dates

It's always sad when I can't see these little ones in person. But having phones that do FaceTime really does help. Tonight we opened up birthday presents for Emmett. Can't believe that he's already 3. He's getting so big. I miss him dearly and his little sister of course. Happy Birthday E! I love you and can't wait to see you in person again soon!!!

Ft. Lauderdale temple

Part of my trip to Florida this week was to come down to Ft. Lauderdale to see this beautiful temple during it's open house. Today was the last day of the open house and I'm so glad that I was able to make it. It's beautiful inside and out. It's a smaller temple- all one floor. I can't wait 'til I'm able to go inside the temple one day, soon hopefully. They just have a wonderful spirit about them. There's no doubt what they are for. This was the 4th open house that I've been able to attend (that I remember, 5th if you include the Orlando temple when I was a wee little one). 

Joslyn

This little girl was born yesterday. I was lucky and fortunate enough to be Kierstin and Joslyn's nurse last night. She is so cute and so tiny. It was such a wonderful experience for me to be apart of their first day as a little family. 

Colorado trip

Everyone had the weekend off so we all packed up for a weekend trip to Colorado. Middle of nowhere Colorado, Rifle to exact. It was a fun but hectic weekend with not a lot of rest. We did get to go hiking some very fun waterfalls though. 

This little girl

There's this little girl whom I love. It's no secret. I often joke that one day Shara and Shawn are going to come home to find that I've stolen her. Totally not going to happen but still. She's so fun and can make anyone's day better. I love her to pieces. I also love that she calls me Net now. I may or may not have taught her some bad habits- but that's what aunts are for right?!

Temples

There really is something about just being around temples or being on temple grounds. There's a sacred feeling and often you can find the peace and comfort that you're looking for just by being there. Tonight I was cancelled from work so I decided that I needed to go for a drive. I was lead to the temples. They give me a feeling of everything will work out the way it should. This is one perk of being in Utah- all these temples are within 20 or so minutes of each other.
