5 more days...
School is stressful and so is building a house- scratch that- building 6 houses!! I cant wait for it to all be over and be in our new home. I really like where we live so it will be hard to leave this area and I think I will really miss it but it will help that we will be in our OWN home with more space to grow. Also I am looking forward to start the DH program in the fall but its scary at the same time because I know it is going to be the hard I am not one that can just look at something memorize it and ace any test... what should have taken me a couple years took me 6! Of course starting my family and being able to be home with my babies was totally worth it I just need to get my butt in gear! Tay and I were going through all the baby clothes in the garage and although I have NOT had any desire to have anymore kids at this super crazy moment in life... I knew just looking at those adorable little baby clothes and hearing Addi talk about how she cant wait to give them to her "little sister" it made me realize that I so want more eventually. Having children is alot of work and we live in a world where its all about "ME- MY career- MY needs-" but family- thats where its at! Thats where the REAL joys in life come from, being surrounded my those you love and there is something so very special about creating and giving life to these wonderful and precious spirits that the Lord has trusted us with and as hard as it can be sometimes I do LOVE being a mom:) I have another 2-3 more years till that is an option again but I know as tough as it is when they are young it will be all worth it! I cant imagine my life with out my other brothers and sisters- man it would have been a lot more dull if it was just me and my brother. Heavenly Father knows what I am capable of so I just need to take life one step at a time. Im going to try and be positive and enjoy living in the moment. Things can change so quickly so we just need to live life and not take things for granted! I am so thankful for an amazing family, husband, children, and friends and for my testimony of the gospel and what I know in my heart to be true! For the first time in my life I am LOVING to read and study the scriptures- particularly the Book of Mormon- they truely strengthen and enrich my life. They remind me of the pride cycle and how easy it is to forget. "Live in the world but not OF the world" hard to do in the times we are in with so much technology and things to distract us. Wow, this is a random probably boring post if you have made it thus far but it was mostly for me:) If you are still reading I just want to say thank you to all my friends and loved ones who support us and are there for us, life wouldnt be the same with out you!! Haha oh and the title of this post... 5 more days... that will be when I am laying on the beach relaxing in the sun... ah... good old Cali.... cant wait:)

Take me with you, it's freezing here. We got another couple inches the other day. I'll bring my manicure kit and massage stuff and we can hang out on the beach together. :) We need to start planning a regular sister retreat! to CA or at least warm climate.
So happy for you to be embarking on your scholastic dreams!
