MARCH & APRIL 2011

March and April have been crazy busy months!! I need to get some pics up on here....as soon as I remember my cord for the camera. =) Here is a quick review of what we have been up to...and I will post pics later...maybe Friday....

*** MARCH ***
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kennedy turned 5
Had 2 birthday parties
We went to Disney on Ice
Kennedy & I went to see Hairspray
Brother's birthday
Re-connected with some friends from high school/ Kennedy made new friends
McKay and I are no longer dating....at all
Kennedy was in her first Ballet

*** April ***
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Actually...her dance concert was April 1st
The MOST exciting part of April....WE WENT TO DISNEYLAND!!!
Registered for a summer class
Realized one class for summer was $750...so I dropped the class
Registered for Fall classes!! =)
Found out my boss isn't willing to work with my school schedule...
Found out the next day my babysitter can't watch Kennedy next year....
Easter! --we had approx 50 Easter Egg hunts on Easter, with the eggs being hidden in the same place each time. =) It was fun to dye the eggs the night before too!

And, of course just busy working and living life... and playing lots of princess games lately, dance parties, 1-woman-shows...starring Kennedy. =) The last couple weeks have been stressful for me, resulting in tears a few times....luckily I have fantastic friends and family to help with Kennedy, and give me a night out to get my mind off of things! I still have NO clue what I will do come fall....but I do know it will all work out. I just need to have faith in the Lord, and continue to do what I am asked.....while continuing in prayer for the right decision to make. I have had some great lessons in church the last few Sundays.... at one point, when everything felt like it was tumbling down, I just wanted to go to sleep, and have somebody else make my decision so I wouldn't have to. That Sunday our lesson in Relief Society was on agency. I truly am grateful for my agency, and recognize that it IS a blessing....even though it's not the easiest sometimes. I have received a blessing, which helped comfort me, and I was reminded to fast and pray so I can know the will of the Lord, as well as listen to advice from my friends and family, who have my best interest at heart. My lesson this past Sunday really impacted me.... about how I need to be willing to let go of my will to embrace the Lord's....I don't remember the exact words...but basically what I have been coming to understand, is that I have planned out work and school and thought it was perfect, but I need to realize and accept that the Lord knows more than I do, and knows the BEST way to do things.....and I think there must be something in my cards that I am not aware of...that I will need to be open and available for....and maybe it's just as simple as, school with work here at my current job, would be too much for me to handle. Who knows.....so, I am just still trying to figure things out and will continue to pray about what route I am supposed to take, and just be open to receiving ANY answer that comes...whether I like it or not, so that I can make the best decision for me and my bugs....

That's a bit of an update of our life! Hope it all makes sense...sometimes I get typing and my mind jumps around, so hopefully it all made sense. Pics will be posted soon....ish. =) I also just realized I have a ton more pics dating back to last summer that I haven't posted...so maybe I will do a mass pic post!
