Where Have I Been Hiding?

Ok I realize I have not updated much lately. The reason why…work. September is our annual conference and it causes life to get a little busy. I decided to give a few highlights of what I have been up to, at least the ones I remember…so I figure that’s what counts.

1) Girls nights. I have been having a ton of fun getting out there and really spending time with my friends, out side of organized activities. I know it sounds silly. But I love my Kendra time so I always have to remember to balance in other activities. Totally flip flopped from others. I think it comes from my natural born talent to keep my self entertained.

2) WORK!!! Ok it doesn’t stick out as a positive but it did consume all my time this month. Last week was our annual conference and it was great. If you can say that. I learned a lot about our role, as a community member to end domestic violence. What stuck out the most was a role to help end all violence against women by helping our brothers, friends, son, husbands, etc. to understand how their actions effect women. To help them see the world women live in. As the presenter asked when was the last time a guy had to think about their safety as they walk through the parking lot to their car at night. We need to help men know the right way to treat women. Help theme see violence is not the answer. Help them to understand provocative comments and actions are not the solution and are not acceptable. (Ok enough with that soap box)

3) My comp day of off work. I took yesterday off of work, do to way to many work hours last week. It was so nice. I spent some well needed time at home and with my little brother. I cant believe Matt picks up his mission papers on Sunday. He is already working on talking me into taking “sick” days to go skiing before he leaves. I so think I will.

4) Stain Glass. I cant go into to many details here but I have finish or nearly finished a few great projects!!!

5) A 3 year olds perspective. I have spent the last couple of Saturdays tending my cousins. Can I tell you life from the eyes of a three year old is hilarious.

5) FALL!!!! Ok I get it, this is not something I have been up to but I love fall. Its my favorite time of year. And its finally here. Sunday I saw my first swirling of leaves in the wind. Oh my heart skipped a beat. Not that I have to much control over this but I am going to do my best to get married in the FALL.
