For Catherine:

So I was talking with my sister today and she said that ever since I moved I am always so busy....she asked why, but I was too busy to even answer and had to hang up, so Cath this is for you:

Last I blogged we had just gotten back from Disney World, since then:

  • I have had to attend two youth service projects, back to back, two weekends in a row
  • My 2 year old turned 3, we were even so busy that we didn't even tell her it was her birthday until a week later
  • Grandma came to town
  • Threw a birthday party for the little one
  • Had to plan and organize the Ward Trunk or Treat
  • Attended two school Halloween parties
  • Attended first piano recital for son
  • Took the kids trick or treating
  • My 7 year old turned 8, he's old enough that we couldn't postpone his birthday any later
  • Hubby left town, AGAIN
  • Baked treats for my sons class to celebrate his birthday, messed up the first batch and had to make a second one
  • Spent an entire Saturday helping my son with his science fair project
  • Attended Science Fair
  • Plan, invite and shop for sons birthday party
  • Another Saturday...busy having sons birthday party(when will I ever have a lazy Saturday again?)
  • Planning for sons baptism
  • Both Grandparents are coming to town
  • Getting ready for Thanksgiving
  • Oh and Christmas shopping, I can't even go there yet

Did I mention that every Sunday I teach Young Woman and I attend mutual too, oh and somewhere in there I am to attend meetings, help with homework, exercise...and Mason's piano lessons, and Abby's tumbling classes...oh and keep the house clean, pay the bills, do laundry, cook, grocery shop...would you like me to keep going?.....

I crashed last night on the couch, I really enjoy Sundays...thank goodness for a day of rest!

Busy...YES, does that answer your question Cath?

*Pictures to come, its on my to do list for tomorrow

Oh my word Lea! I so empathize! This sounds like I could have written it! Young Women's is the worst calling as far as obligations go! Miss you. :)

Oh, bless your heart! You're in good company, though! Keep up the good work/mommying. You're terrific. Your vacation looks so much FUN, by the way! We're hoping to do Disney in the next couple years. How are you liking Iowa? Which city do you live in?

That is super busy. And I forgot to mention I think it's hilarious that you mowed your acre of lawn- haha! PS- I had a baby :)

YEs that answers my question. Okay you are right, you are busy! I thought I'd already commented about this but apparently not.
