Our time in Chile

    My husband, Terry, and I went to Chile to pick up our son off his mission. It was incredible and I wanted to share just a little of it with you!

Glorious sleep!

I'm so thankful for sleep!  I love that you can go to bed weary in body and spirit and get up feeling like you can face anything again, physically and emotionally.  I have used that quite a bit this week, trying to catch up from our whirlwind weekend.  I'm a sleepy person, anything short of 8 hours is not enough for me.  This week, I took lots of cat naps, went to bed early, and slept in, and finally, today, I feel like a human being again. 

Thank you sleep, for making me human again.

I too LOVE sleep. My mom said that I used to have to sleep 12 hours a night until I went to school. I need at least 8 now too I think, but I am wondering if 8.5 is the magic number. If I hit the sack at 10:30pm, I am usually fine. If I stay up until 11pm, I have a HECK of a time draggin' my butt out of bed. Crazy. Welcome back, by the way! I think I tried to comment on your last post, but something wigged out and I don't think it's there. Anyway . . . great job dancin' beauties and welcome home

Blissful sleep! I never get as much as I need. :(

So what's up with the umbrella in the bed? LOL! There's got to be a story!

Um, I'm so sorry about all of those comments!! Who knew that the "back" button would do that!?!

No kidding! Sometimes when I have a deadline or am excited about projects I wish I didn't have to sleep at all, but most of the time I love it and think it's such a genius plan. Pretty much every night when I get into bed I think, "Ahhh, my favorite moment of the day."
