The deck that looked over the lake, Micah spotted a turtle in the lake... And sure enough there one was and it was awesome! Jeff and Micah both tried making a shot with the golf ball into the boat below. They didnt quite make it but it was sure fun watching everyone try. One thing I will remember about this trip/ conference was at the closing dinner, the founders of the Leavitt Group, Dixie and Ann Leavitt spoke. She told a few stories involving how we react to certain situations, and how it can make all
The difference in our lives. How true is this. Just today I accidentally locked the door to the car before halie got out. She panicked and started crying. Typically I would have told her to knock it off, it's not like she couldn't get out. But instead I paused and thought, it probably really scared her. So instead of getting upset that she was crying over me locking the door so quickly I said, Sorry Halie, that must have been really scary I didn't mean to lock you in the car, I thought you had gotten out already. I gave her a hug and she stopped crying immediately. I know if I would have chosen a different response she would have cried the entire time at the store. Sometimes it's easy to get so short tempered with my kids. I'm grateful for that small bit of advice that I took from the conference dinner this year! It's refreshing to have my husband work for a company with the same values as us. I felt as if we were at a testimony meeting. But Lds or not, how great it is to know there are people out there trying to
Make good in the world. The end. :).
Ready to rule the pool!
