What a Blessing this life is...


Last weekend was my 30th birthday. Hooray! I'm so done with my 20s! We spent the weekend in Salt Lake City, mostly to see our amazing friend, Marci join us in the world of married people.

We drove down Friday night (my birthday) and then Saturday morning we woke up early, made the trek to SLC's Temple Square. The second I stepped onto the grounds, a sense of calm came over me. I felt so much peace in me be there. Seeing the temple surrounded by pink blossoms, gorgeous flowers and the smell of lilacs in the air. Taking time to just sit and enjoy it was amazing. I took the chance to just enjoy being there. Marci and Jeff came out of the temple and I couldn't stop smiling!! What a fantastic morning!


We ended up spending most of the day in Temple Square.
We took the carriage ride, we did the visitor's centers, shopped at Deseret Book, we did it all.

It was fantastic. It was a great time to just get away from it all- work, family, stress. Fantastic timing too.

More later about some big news we have!!!
