VACATION!!!

Vacations with just Josh and me are far and few between. BUT Wednesday morning Josh and I are off to New Orleans to celebrate our 5 year anniversary. I don't know if I am more excited to see New Orleans for the first time or just spend time with Josh w/o kids. I love being a mom, but it is SO nice to just be Diana on occasion. Don't you worry I will take pictures and show you all the fun I had :) If there is anywhere we just HAVE to go to, let me know.

Canton, Genreal Conference and my dryer

If you live by Canton, 1st Monday's are an experience. It was fun just walking around looking at all the interesting things people try to sell. A warning to impulse shoppers, you need a plan to stick by or you will come back with all sorts of fun things you never knew you needed. Luckily I am not one of those :)
I am so blessed to be able to be a part of general conference. (by a part of I mean listen to:) I love the spirit I feel when men and women of God are sharing experiences and their testimonies. I love to get revamped on life and challenge myself to be a better mom, wife, sister and friend. I am grateful that I can be an ever changing and growing individual that can one day return to my Heavenly Father. I am thankful for the righteous men that lead the Church and hold the priesthood power.
Last, which I know is a huge jump from the last subject is, our dryer went out. Whoo hoo, and the weekend is my laundry time. I love that life is a never ending event after event of things breaking. ha ha Life is good.

ZOO

The zoo was so much fun! Last Monday we went early in the morning. Almost every animal came up right to the window. Madison's favorite was the baboon because the baby came up to the window, turned around, and shook it's bum bum at us. She thought that was the best thing ever. We even had a gorilla get up and walk up right to the glass. I forget how massive and majestic anaimal are sometimes. It was a good day. I want my kids to develop a love for animals...and what better way than take them to the zoo. We have a season pass, so anyone that wants to go with us sometime, let me know :)
