BLOGGING..where have you gone? Why have I let you slip between my fingers? Something I truly love and I've just stopped cold turkey. Not cool. I'm coming back for you.

So instead of trying to recap everything I missed out on for the past months, we're just going to start here. now. today.

..................................................................................................................

Sunday. It was perfect. The light coming in my window was beautiful(and that's saying something cause I have like no windows in my house), the boys were playing peacefully for hours, and everyone was happy. It's moments like these I have to run grab my camera because I want to do whatever I can to capture it. Freeze time.

A little Instagram recap for you:

"This Sunday felt quiet and peaceful and silly and relaxing. I watched these little people play for hours after church and it just made me happy. It made me grateful. Grateful that we set aside our Sunday each week to be different. To focus on our family and our Savior Jesus Christ...the very reason that this day is different, the very reason that this family is so different. " ❤️ #hisday #lds #sharegoodness #iammormon

Sunday's around here are different. A day we step away from the World and focus on our family.

Church starts at 10am (which seems like the perfect time...but for some reason I still have to kick it in gear at 7 to make sure we are all dressed fed and out the door on time). We spend the next 3 hours at church. YES, 3 HOURS. It's seems long, but actually quite insignificant when I think about the amount of time I spend doing who knows what the rest of the week. It's our time to focus on Christ and his love for us. It helps me recommit and remember why I love being a Mother and Wife.

Then we're home for the rest of the day.

It's not our day to shop or run errands. We make sure chores and yard work are all done on Saturday. The kids don't run off and play with friends or turn on the TV/ipods. And no, we're not weird. We're perfectly normal people. We just like to disconnect a little.

It's our families day to relax and spend time on things that will make us better. Dinner with extended family, visit close friends or people in need, take a walk together around the block...who knows. Today I just sat on the couch sneaking pictures of the boys while dinner cooked. It was peaceful and quiet. It made me happy to watch their little bodies beaming with joy over some tiny lego creation.
