Where to begin...

It has been about 5 weeks since my last post. It's not that I haven't wanted to post or have nothing to say. A few words....State FFA Convention! For those of you that know FFA and know me, you know that State Convention times puts everyone on overload for a few weeks and that was exactly my case. I am in a sort of an excited/mourning mood as we go into this time of year. I love spring and summer and all that comes with it but it is also my most busy time of year for work and it is go time from now until the end of the state fair.

I am not about complaining so I'll just give an update to all the things that have happened since Cameron's birthday when I last posted...

It has been a long warm up to get to spring and we are finally enjoying some sunshine and the beauty that the valley holds this time of year. Everything is blooming and beautiful!!

Easter was such a blessed day. Matt was in Custer, South Dakota for a wedding all weekend so the kids and I had the chance to spend time with grandparents and cousins decorating Easter eggs and celebrating our Savior's resurrection. A good friend and student I've worked, Emily Achen, joined our family for Easter celebration at church and dinner at my aunts house. We had a wonderful day with sunshine and lots of joy!

The following weekend was the state FFA convention. The convention went really well and I am so proud of the students we worked with and the accomplishments they had. We elected our new team and so I am in the process of getting to know them and their strengths. We just finished with their training this past weekend.

I had the chance to see Surgarland and Little Big Town in concert. Our friend and neighbor Lori invited me and I must say it was one of the best concerts I have ever seen. We stood through the whole concert and were four rows from the stage...what an AWESOME show!

Mother's Day was very special. Matt in all of his creativity always makes it special and again it was a great day. Picture books, flowers, and breakfast in bed by the kids were a few highlight!

Matt had a birthday and we spent the day at home as a family...it was AWESOME! Some times just being home is the best.
