get the popcorn this is a long one

So it has been Way crazy around here! Last week I felt like the energizer bunny just without the energy but I kept going and going and going. First off I taught a finical class for my mom’s ward enrichment class. It’s the first off three classes. I love teaching it. I was a little scared (well let’s not lie) A LOT scared… Ian and I taught a six week course last fall and it was great b/c we spilt the time and he could help fill in my scatterness  But this time it was an hour class all ME. I thought there was NO way that I could teach for an hour…boy was I wrong. I had an interesting experience. I just could not get my thoughts together on how I wanted to teach and what I wanted to say I stayed up many nights just going over and over what I wanted to do and NOTHING!! So on top of having this crazy week I thought oh Ill have play group at my house it was actually nice to just stop thinking about it and relax a little. After everyone left and I got both boys down(thank goodness) and I had like what 6 hours before I taught I thought ok heavenly Father what do I need to teach and then it hit me so hard I knew what I needed to do. It was crazy it was a total different direction on which I had planned to do so I felt so unprepared but at the same time I have never had such strong feelings to change what I had planned and do what needs to be taught so I felt peace that everything would work out. It’s amazing how fast time flies when you are passionate about something….I can talk for hours on finances. I can’t wait tell the next class!

So now that the class is done I moved on to the next thing of the week …Baby shower for my best friend.
We have been walking every Mon,Wed,Fri. So Wed Morning Kathryn texted me nothing abnormal we text hourly but she put hey could I come over before we go walking…..SEVERAL things started to flow through my mind. I thought is she coming to tell me something about the shower and she wants something different no that’s not Kathryn she is the most easy going person I know. Then somewhere way deep down inside …well let me give you some back story I just got really burnt out by a person I thought was a good friend and this seems to happen a lot to me so I thought could this really happen Again and I really thought there was no way I just had no clue but I knew it could not be that… so I waited for her to come over. It was worse She came to tell me she was moving to North Carolina….NOOOOO I finally have an amazing friend and she has to move. I am way happy for them though her husband got a promotion but still very sad. She is one of those friends that I will have for a lifetime. We already have a trip planned to the beach. This woman is an amazing woman and carried me through a really down time in my life and brought Joy to me again. She made me realize how important it is to have girlfriends in your life. She truly will be missed.

So on to the shower….The rest of the week was me running around crazy getting things down for the shower. She is having a baby girl so we did pink and green as the colors. We made cute tissue paper flowers with the help of Melisa another close friend. And way cute thank you gifts…Lots of yummy food and I made some Yummy cupcakes. I forgot my camera so when I get the pictures from Mel I will post them. It turned out so good and she got some amazing gifts. We were just happy that she made it to the shower she is due any day. She is 60%efaced and already at a 3. So hopefully in the next couple of days we will have baby grace here! Oh I tried sewing these really cute onsies with ruffles on the butt they did not turn out good so I really need to practice.
So this is a way long post but that is a little of what is going on in my life. I am going to have a LAZY week!
