Way, way less than 500 days

A good friend of mine brought to my attention today that I suck at blogging! She said "you haven't blogged for 2 months".. Wow! Someone noticed?
Don't worry - I still have plenty to say, but I guess I've been busy river rafting, camping, going to the beach, bear watching, lying in the sun, wake surfing, pretending to be someone elses mom, and cheering for my husband. I know.. it's quite a life!
As for Al P. He's at 485 days and counting. Time is flying.. remember my blog when I was in the 700's?
At 8 + months he's a full time door knockin', BOM carryin', service doin' taco eatin', divorcin' and marryin', baptizn' Elder. He's happy - therefore, I'm happy! He also gets to work at the Mexico City Temple Re-Dedication starting next week, and it's rumored that President Monson will be there!
He's got 15 of his group of 17 friends that are in the mission field. They are serving from the Phillipines to Hawaii. How can 19 year olds be so amazing! I'm a proud mom of all 15 of them.. whether they belong to me or not!
Today's motto.. "my life is happy, even when the world is crumbling"..
