Bunco night and Women of Caliber date

I have played bunco once a month with the same ladies for the last 7 years. I love it. Its a night to get out, girl talk, eat food, party,get crazy and dress up. Bunco is a dice game of luck. You have to have 12 people to play, you pay 10 dollars to play and you get dinner and a prize. In the beginning of the year you sign up to host which entails cooking dinner for 12, thinking of a theme, and buying prizes. I love when we have themed buncos and get to dress up. This month We had a toga theme, full of delicious Greek food that made me regret everything I did when I woke up in the morning. I am sad I didn't get a picture of the food. It was fantastic!



Don't you love my pretty friends?



Saturday Women of Caliber went to a painting place to pain pictures of....GUNS! (obviously) It was a valentines' date so we could invite our spouses. It was a fun time, after that we went out to dinner and enjoyed more of each others company.



Sunday was Valentines day. As Chris and I were sitting in church I kept thinking of how we met in the singles ward and our time there. It was nice to be able to spend valentines at church and remember all those times. We had a very low key day after that, consisted of visiting family, laying on the couch and watching TV.

Easter and Not Having Friends at Church

I had the privilege of teaching the Easter lesson this Sunday. I taught on the Savoir's last week on earth. I hid Easter eggs all over the room with scpritures on Christ inside them. The girls loved the Easter egg hunt because their parents say they are too old for egg hunts.  Sunday's are hard sometimes. I caught my self crying during sacrament today. well, because I have no friends. About a year ago our Ward was dissolved. I had a lot of friends at church, some who have become my best friends. My good friend Jenni who lives a block away and was really my only friend in the ward, moved across town yesterday. Another family I am friends with is moving as well. Church is the hardest place to make friends. I feel like because I don't have kids, and I'm not a newly wed, I don't fit in with any of the groups. The people my age have a million kids, and the couples without kids are kids themselves and just got married like last week, and no one has really wanted to be my

2016

I have sat and thought a lot about what I am going to say in this post. So much has happened this year, its been rough but it also has been a blessing. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger, right? I learned a lot this year. First of all the biggest thing I learned that I definitely paid for was listening to bad feelings. I learned what true friendship was, and saw the ones who cared and saw the ones who didn't. I learned about priorities and what really is important in life. I learned of death and that death is not the end. I learned patience. Maybe I didn't learn patience but I tolerated patience. I learned and always knew that no matter what happens in life that you and your spouse are all that matters. Lets start off with January. Chris was working at the juvenile detention center 45 minuets away from our house. This was a wonderful job opportunity that we both felt so good about. It started to become rough. He was gone all the time and we never saw each other. He

I like older men.

This weekend was Christopher's birthday!! My main man is 33 now, I'm still holding on to my mid twenties like my life is depending on it.  We went for a short get a way to the big city, Salt Lake City. Left the dogs with the grand parents and off we went. After I doused myself in essential oils I was calm enough to sit as a passenger in the car. I think I made my self too sick with anxiety and worry. Tears were shed for no reason in the middle of a resturant and hanging over the toilet Happened. It's either my anxiety or these fertility drugs I was taking. But I have my big girl panties on and can handle this!  The first thing we did was hit up Cripsy Cream. It's like heaven in your mouth. Lunch was at Roadizo Grill. We took our selves shopping and back to the hotel for rest.  The next morning we found a random Ward to attend to take the sacrament, stopped to take a look at the Brigham City Temple, and got back on the road. Like I said, this was a super fast trip.  When
