Yesterday, today, tomorrow.

Here are some descriptive sentences for what my life is revolving around lately.

Farrah eating poop.
New best friends.
Young Women activities.
Lilly's "big girl panties"
Decluttering.
DIY interior design
Trying lazily to get in shape.
Broken washer.
Replacing old furniture.
New red hair.
Please, no more sugar.

Spring cleaning has been the real deal around here lately! Out with the old but not necessarily in with the new. I'm a minimalist at heart. I'd be one of those people who could actually function living in a model home. Unfortunately, my husband and babes could not, so my life is being taken over by throwing/giving things away from literally every room in the house.

Poop. Poop. Poop. And more poop. Between Lillian potty training and Farrah being a monster, I have been living in poop. The worst part? Our washer suddenly broke in the middle of a cycle last week, so everything has to be hand washed in the tub or brought to my mother-in-laws house (bless her heart.. we didn't even ask) so I've been choosing my outfits wisely!

Thank goodness for tax refunds when you're broke. We haven't received ours yet, but knowing we've filed our taxes is such a relief. Not to mention how great it will be to actually have money to replace our washer with!

I've been trying to say yes to people and go to things more often. My anxiety is still high but I guess you could say I'm getting better at masking it.. Annnnd I'm just getting to know people better = I'm more comfortable around them. Namely the 3 beautiful ladies I work with in young women. It's so nice to have a little circle of friends with no drama and we all get along! I can't even remember the last time I experienced that! It's awesome not being a teenager anymore! It's pretty great that all our husbands are cool as well. My life is pretty entwined with my calling right now which means we HAVE to see eachother at least twice a week, which is kind of a great thing.. shhh!

My husband is handsome AND sweet. What's not to be thankful for? My girls are silly and adorable and all 3 of those rascals melt my heart every 2 seconds of everyday. As hectic as life is for us right now (and stress and depression make their appearances too), I can't help but trust that God will make it all right in the end. I'm young, healthy, have great friends, a great relationship with my husband, a great relationship with my Heavenly Father, have 2 lil princesses who depend on me, a warm house, an income and all the necessities. I live in a great neighborhood in a great city, state and country.

I wouldn't trade my life with anyone or for anything.
