bon voyage

catching up!!!

this month i don't think i will be staying in the same state for longer than a week. atlantic city to utah to vegas to mexico to vegas to utah to vegas. im already tired just typing this. 
and....
we just got back from a jam packed weekend in utah. i got to spend time with my mom as she continues to be strong in her hospital bed until we find out what is going on there. ugh. 
she amazes me everyday! 
we were also able to have a picnic in the park with my fam, cousin sleepovers, and of course lots of swimming and hiking all in a few days.


sliding rock.... nature's own slip n slide. 
we took all the kids. i have super dare devil nieces and nephews.
they all went down like it was no big deal. soooo fun!






 and...
 i forgot to mention i got to be a part of black box.

think.

i don't even know where this post is going right now, but i am on my computer this rainy sunday afternoon (hallelujah for the rain) and just started typing. 

i have been reading, listening, and researching a lot lately. about lots of different things. life is so interesting. i have been reading the book, you can heal your life and i am learning more and more of the effect your thoughts have over you, your body, and others. the world can be so negative. people can be so negative, and if you're not careful, you can find yourself right there with them. negativity is intoxicating. it all starts with your thoughts. "we" are the only thinkers in our mind. we create our experiences, our reality, and everyone in it. when we create peace and balance in our mind, we will find it in our lives. i quote the wise deepak chopra when i say, don't let the body be the battle ground for the wars you wage in your mind. 
i love this.
so true. 
i can go on and on and on and on, but i will spare you of my babbling for now;)
here's to trying to find the light and positivity in the everyday things. negativity is a waste of time. 
lets all be happy. 
its more fun:)
speaking of fun.....here are a few pics of  our "bond fire" when we were in utah a few weeks ago.







we love "bonding"with our family. 
the kids versions of scary stories around the campfire=priceless
