The guilt of the infrequent blogger...

OK, so I knew from the beginning that it would be a challenge to take time to blog. I go in and out of the blogging mood. I have ideas for great posts. But when it comes down to it, I just use my time in other ways. So, my fellow bloggers, please forgive my inconsistent posting and commenting. I do love the connection this thing called "blogging" creates. An instant kinship with old friends or relatives I rarely see, even with strangers for that matter. Who's idea was this anyway? Did they know we would get hooked into it so easily? Well whomever it was, nice work!

Anyway, so May...May, May, May. What a May it has been. Fran and Lizzy's birthdays, Mother's Day, Dance Recital, Soccer Starting, School nearing end, Summer lurking. I enjoyed it, but can I say I am also glad to see it go.

To add to the randomness of this post, I'm just going to list some random things I've been doing:

I read the Host by Stephenie Meyer in about 8 days (I love audiobooks and my new ipod).
I was called as camp director...I eat, breath, and sleep camp!
I am finally experimenting with Photoshop elements, what FUN!
I booked our hotel for our upcoming disneyland trip--wahoo!
I've been working out on my new Wii Fit (mother's day gift). Who knew you could get an amazing workout doing virtual hula-hoop???
I've been enjoying my free Wednesday nights since being released from the YW presidency.
I finished another successful year of nursing.
I feel happy and blessed.

Oh Joy!

I’ve gotten a lot of compliments and inquiries about Fran’s cute flower cap featured recently on my blog. (see side bar photos of the girls and My Blue Eyed Girls post below).

My amazing sister-in-law Joy makes them and they are sold in a few retail stores in Layton. I’ve had so many people ask about them that I’ve decided to have Joy over for an “open house” for her cute caps, headbands, flower clips, jewelry, etc. So feel free to come on over and see Joy’s darling creations, then you won’t have to drive all the way to Layton (though that may be close for some). She has great prices and DARLING items.
