Just like that and it's 1 year

Yes I'm going to say it

I can't believe it's been a year since she left for her mission

She says she's loving it and learning a lot. She's a trainer now and I'm sure she's doing wonderful at that. So 6 months to go until I can hug her.

For Lowell's birthday Julia sent him this cute tie that was made with fabric from a skirt. 

For 2 years Lowell wore the same pink tie to church every single Sunday in memory of his sweet cousin that passed away. He didn't want to stop wearing it then after Julia sent him this one he decided to wear it. I love that he shows his love for his cousin and his sister this way.

We love you Sister Zeman and we are so proud of you

keep it up

Do you believe in magic...

Spring Break is here

Now what should we do?

I've been wanting to go to Universal Studios ever since the Harry Potter area opened

and our good friends invited us so I jumped at that. 

It was the best day ever because we got to spend it with amazing people and go to a theme park.

Ok I admit it that I love love love Disneyland and Universal Studios. 

Its my favorite and Im not exactly sure why when it is always crazy busy to where you are bumping into people constantly while trying to maneuver your way thru and stepping on toes and saying sorry (at least I do) 

I think its fun to jump into make believe for a little while

and seeing the joy on my kids faces is seriously so fun.

The rides are really great except for the new Harry Potter ride where you act like your flying following Harry.  My family loved this ride a lot but I got so nauseous that I had to breath thru it so I wouldn't you know what....

I felt better after a little bit and Belle wanted to go on it just one more time so I said ok lets go, Im sure I will be fine this time. 

Nope!

Defiantly nauseous!

pick a wand any wand

Our friends are seriously the BEST

I don't know how life would be without them

They bring so much joy to our lives and I am so grateful for their friendship.

I couldn't help but laugh on the mummy ride

Isabelle and Lowell wanted to go on it so away we go before they change their mind

But the picture was priceless and I had to buy it

 Mikey got to meet Marilyn Monroe so his day was made

 Almost everyone got to ride motorcycles

yummy food was eaten

so I think it was a really successful day of fun

We all need days of fun

I know its been long overdue for me and my family

Ive been working really hard on some big projects that it has overwhelmed me and so yesterday I left all that behind and enjoyed the time with friends and family
