Me OH MAY again.....:0
I just scrolled down and saw that my last May post was just a few away from this one...I've slacked in my posting duties.
I cannot believe how fast time is going by...why's that I wonder?!?!  I am not feeling guilty though that time is going by fast.  I am living pretty purposeful and happy.  Making life work for me and not just carrying me idly along for the ride!
Loads of stuff happening and I've posted already the important things...I just recently did a 5k with my friends for breast cancer (evil thing cancer)...it was wonderful!  I was pretty emotional when I thought about those I know personally who've died from breast cancer.  My sweet friend Holly Baxter...a righteous and strong mother to 4 precious children and a loving husband.  She died a couple of years ago...the summer of 2009.  I had the privilege of helping put together her one big Disney World celebration vacation with her family before she left this earthly life.  It was so awesome to know her :)
I also thought of my childhood classmate Cami Udall.  I had no clue she even suffered from breast cancer until Colby Ashton text'd me that she passed away.  Broke my heart...I wasn't super close with Cami...but what I hold so close to my heart is my childhood...our class of '93 is amazing...in my opinion the best class that ever passed thru SJ.  All of us have stayed pretty close to each other...some still live in SJ and we're a tight knit community...It was a tragic to lose Cami and I am so inspired by the LIFE she lived in her time here on Earth!  Way to Go Cami!  I also thought of Shauna...my friend Carol's sister ... who's team I ran with...PIMP MY STRIDE FOR SHAUNA!!!  I never met her but if she was anything like Carol...whom I adore...I would have loved her too!  I am so thankful that I still have all my sisters and the tiniest thought of losing him brings tears to my eyes...so to be with Carol for this amazing cause was such a blessing.  I thank my sweet friend Krista for asking me to join the cause with her and Carol...and I am so thankful for new friendships made!  xoxo
I love my SHMC mentoring...thru the Smokin Hot Mama Club I do the mentoring and have been so extremely blessed beyond words to get to be close to women I've never physically met and to learn and grow, and enjoy life's victories with them and mourn in the sorrows with them and just BEing a part of something BIG...BEAUTIFUL...celebrating the life and joys of womanhood and learning how to make the most of this LIFE GOD has given us.  WE are all meant for GREATNESS...and I for one am going to do my part!  It goes hand in hand with all I've ever known in my own personal life especially with the Relief Society.  I'll be ever so thankful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ...I do not know where I would be without it.  I know I am better because of it and to be an angel here on Earth to help look out for my sister friends and have them look out for me...AMAZING!
Well, I've got lots to do today...I'll post some amazing pics soon!  xoxoxo luv luvz
