Time with family
Last Friday was my day off so I headed to Corona and hungout with Katie and Kaitlyn in the afternoon. I just have to say I love every minute I spend with Katie. Katie took the Jane Austin quiz and she is also Elizabeth Bennett (We must rub off of each other). I am such a planner and thank heavens I have her. She helped me figure out how a certain dream of mine could actually come true! Jenn, Katie does not want to do a blog, sorry I tried!

Friday night, I got to do one of my favorite things with one of my favorite pals. My Aunt and I watched two movies and the first one was about a scary movie where all these people die and only four people make it off the boat. So we figured we would watch something happier after. Gracie was a movie about a girl who wants to play soccer with the boys; long story short it was an okay movie, but the company was the best!

Then on Saturday morning, I woke up to breakfast in bed! I have not had that since I was a kid! I was so surprised and thrilled, I have the BEST Aunt!!! Then we went shopping together and hit Khols, where we got the cutest stuff, Joanns, Wal-Mart and on the way home got ice cream cones like old times. I have also not gone shopping with other people for the longest time!

That night we went to Ben's party at Kendra's house and I was in my favorite element, playing with and holding my cute cousins shown above. I was blown away by how tall Brendon is, he has surpased me in height! I know, I am short but he is far from over in the growing department and thinking that he is now in High School makes me feel old. I love the picture of Claire sticking out her tongue. She has the best expressions and I believe that Georgia looks so much like Shiloh, Brad Pitt's baby! She has the fair skin, blue eyes, blonde hair and the cute lips! I am the luckiest woman to have such a great extended family.

Wendy Graves and I figured out a great diet and I have been doing it. I am eating lean crusine once a day for lunch. Kashi cereal for breakfast and another bowl of cereal for dinner. It works great and I eat fruit and veggies for snacks. I also have been walking at work, during lunch for the last couple of days. I am determined and that is why I am writing this on my blog. The more you talk about what you are doing the more you will have success!

Have a great conference weekend, for all who are watching it!
