Times to Remember

My family and I just returned from a week long vacation to Utah. We were with my in-laws the entire time and it was heaven. For those of you that don't enjoy your in-laws, I'm so sorry. Mine truly are the best. It was simply delightful to have the family together. The really amazing thing is there are 13 cousins total, all under the age of seven! WOW!!! Talk about crazy fun!

You know, even though it was completely chaotic at times (ha ha Laura), I had to step back and smile at the fact that we as a family are "doing it." We are living the plan set up by our Heavenly Father, and it truly does bring happiness. What a blessing the plan of happiness is! As a member of the LDS church, I find great peace of mind knowing that there is a plan and purpose to all this craziness in life. (For anyone who wants more information on the plan of happiness, visit www.mormon.org)

So, to my family, thanks for the memories made this weekend, and thanks for letting me join the family. I thank my lucky stars for you everyday! I love you all! (Ryan and Andy, you were missed! Ryan, good luck with the new adventures in Ohio and Andy, can't wait to see you in June!) Love you all!
