12 on the 12th--June Edition

{click to enlarge}

  1. Cathy and I went walking around the temple from 6:45-7:30, it's such a nice way to start the day.
  2. I came home and did a blog post...what is that 3 days in a row? Apparently it's summer and I'm not at work all day, yeeha!
  3. I read this great Conference talk by President Uchtdorf while my hair was setting (i.e., my cool down time with rollers in my hair), I think I'm going to memorize this paragraph and move on with my life!
  4. Whitney and I decided to be tourists in our town by actually walking up and down Main Street to see what's actually there (we've only lived here 8.5 years and never done that before).
  5. A shot from Main Street (the clock doesn't have the correct time).
  6. There was a sort of garden place between buildings that had several benches and some gorgeous flowers, it was the highlight of the outing for me...though Whitney didn't feel the same.
  7. We stopped at Hart's for gas and a drink.
  8. I dropped both kids off to play with friends and found myself giddily alone for the afternoon!
  9. I got some Cafe Rio take-out and rewatched an episode of Downton Abbey Season 1 then spent a couple hours reading in the cozy.
  10. As part of my calling as Scout Advancement Chair I participated in 4 Boards of Review, they weren't quite the spiritual meetings my first one was, but it was still pretty good. I may actually be getting the hang of things.
  11. Randy rented a moving truck to pick up a bunch of furniture from my parents' house to distribute to Robyn, Lori and Us. They're moving this weekend so they've been getting rid of all the stuff they won't have room for in their new (much smaller) place.
  12. I watched Game 1 of the NBA play-offs with Landon, we were disappointed the Heat lost but we're hoping for a good series.

I want someone to downsize and give me furniture. I could use a we sofa and love seat. Sigh.

The flowers are breathtaking.

I love that paragraph and that whole talk.

I'm impressed that you got up early to go walking! I'm struggling to find the motivation to exercise now that it's summer...

Lucas was bummed that Landon was gone for the end of the play-offs. Apparently they had plans for a Heat party. He was thrilled that they won, though!
