Family Fun In The Sun

Summer is just around the corner!
(for some of you it may be sooner--lucky ducks!)
Summer is a time for kids (parents + teachers) to relax
but towards the end I'm sure we're all ready to head back
to the place of learning.
To help keep your child from saying the B word (bored...get your
mind out of the gutter!)
Here are a few fun activities you can do with them!

1. Sign them up for summer camp! Did you know they have DAY camps during the summer that your child can attend? It's usually cheaper than regular day care and you can usually pick out the weeks that your child attends.

2. Have a family service day! Seriously what better way to give back to your community and feel peace and love in your heart at the same time? There are so many organizations out there that would love your help and friendly face.

3. Have a water day! This may not be the cheapest option but your family will have so much fun playing in the water together.

4. Splash Pads! Seriously, splash pads are amazing and they are EVERYWHERE! Your best bet would be to Google your town's best ones or ask on social media.

5. Go on a picnic! When you go on a picnic with your family there are bound to be memories made.

6. Host a bonfire! Again, not the cheapest idea but you'll be able to bond with your family and your friends (if you decide to invite them).

7. Go to a movie night! Check to see if your local movie theater has cheap movie nights during the summer.

8. Go camping! Who doesn't love camping? You'll get to be in nature, away from the technology and craziness of the world and bond with your family.

9. Go visit relatives. Seriously, go on a weekend or overnight trip and visit some relatives you have not seen in a while.

10. Plant a garden. While this one isn't the most common thing to do as a family, it sure will bring a lot of joy and fun, especially when you get to harvest what you planted with your loved ones.


Whatever you decide to do just make sure you are having fun, you're safe, and you're creating memories--I promise you won't regret it.

Don't Put Yourself Through That

It's not always easy deciding to stop loving something that you've loved for so long, that you wanted forever. The first few days you are strong about and then BAM it hits you like a ton of bricks. You immediately start crying and wish that it had worked out and you don't completely understand why it didn't. You get mad and frustrated. You had all these plans made, you had all of these dreams you two were going to put into reality one day. It's hard to give up something that you loved. But deep down you know it's for the best. You've struggled for so long but you have the faith that your Heavenly Father is on your side and He will only do what is best for you. So  Don't Put Yourself through   the heart ache of wishing things were different because that person was put into your life for a reason, you learned a lot from those months you were together and you should be thankful for them. Remember it's not always going to be easy, but w...

2016: A Year of Learning and Thankfulness

2016. This year has definitely been a year of learning. Learning who I am and who I'm suppose to become. I've learned this year that I can do anything that I set my mind to do and that I just need possible.  I'm not who I was a year ago and I've learned to be okay with that. I'm coming to terms with the fact that I'm a totally different person than I was even two years ago. I've learned that life goes on. And I've learned that things don't always go as planned. I've learned that things happen for a reason and that things happen in Heavenly Father's time, not ours. I've learned that our plans don't always go accordingly and to be grateful for every moment because we won't be able to get those moments back. This year I've also learned to be thankful. Thankful for my family, who support me, in every decision I make. Thankful for my warm home on winter nights and a cool home on those warm July days. I'm th...
