Oh, Fun!

The last few days have been really nice. I've really enjoyed the beautiful spring weather (just in time for a snow storm today, ha!).

Last weekend, Nic and I went to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point. It was so beautiful. I LOVE the Thanksgiving Point Gardens. The festival ends this Saturday, so if you get a chance (and if the tulips make it through this winter storm), I would totally recommend that you visit!


We only got two pictures while we were there (we were too busy talking about our future together, it was fabulous). And, ironically enough, neither picture is with tulips in them! We took these by "The Secret Garden". So pretty!

I was able to go to a "Heart Mom Luncheon" on Saturday. It was so great. It was at Gardner Village. We got little gift bags with T-shirts, pens, and little trinkets. It was really nice to be surrounded by so many women who understand. I sat with three other "Angel Mom's"... Emily, Teea, and Jessica. I loved talking with them. I also got to meet Chrissy, who has the CUTEST little girl. Oh my gosh. Every time I see a picture of her little girl, Kylie, I just want to KISS her cheeks! Sad thing is, I've never met Kylie in person. Maybe one day... :)

This is Chrissy, Jessica, Melynda, and Me. All of us are heart moms. It's a blessing to belong to a group of women who support each other so much. A special thanks to Carolyn Quigley, who organized the group and who has put her heart into events like this.

This is all the heart moms who could make it to the luncheon. Can you believe there are so many? It's heartbreaking, and also strengthening, all at the same time. I love all these women, even though I don't know them all personally. We are connected in so many ways.

And, yesterday, my dad and I went to the Salt Lake Temple (I LOVE the Salt Lake Temple. It's where Nic and I were married, almost six years ago). It's my castle. I love the history behind it. Our Mormon pioneers put their whole hearts and souls into building this temple. They built it to our God. This is where we worship. This is where families are made eternal. Click on the link above. The picture is stunningly beautiful, but even more beautiful is what happens inside. Families are forever!

This is me and my dad, just outside of the temple. I love my dad. He is a good man with a kind and giving heart. I honor and respect him. I love you Dad!

My dad and I took some pictures of a few flowers within the Salt Lake Temple grounds. The gardens here always look so beautiful.






The next two pictures have the Salt Lake Temple in the background. I think it's so beautiful...



And, today, my cute li'l bro (who really isn't little at all) is moving to Kentucky for the summer. I'm gonna miss him. He's my good friend. I love ya Kody! Please be safe... and maybe I can come visit you this summer.

PS The ironical thing is that I look like I'm wearing the SAME outfit every day! Haha! Let me assure you: I shower, I do my laundry, and I change my clothes. However, I live in my white cardigan. I love it. But, just for clarity-and to calm your deep, heart-felt concern-I am a CLEAN person.
