It's time for Monday!

1. Ty was able to come home for his special dinner on Saturday night, but he stayed busy at work all weekend long! I was so tired on Sunday night. It is hard to start a new when you feel like you never had a break!

which brings me to this.....

2.

I read somewhere that a great way to get rid of tired puffy eyes was to get your blood pumping with some exercise, in particular, cardio involving leg muscles. 

This is one of the reasons I am a morning runner!

3. I am driving the carpool this week. It is much cooler today than last week. Unfortunately it is also raining, which makes picking 3 kids up from school with 2 other kids in tow a bit more difficult, but we will make it work! I will also bring cookies and there will be much rejoicing.

4. A cute idea for church/school handouts or reminders:

My mom is teaching seminary this year. I am sure her students would love some hugs and kisses! It would also give me an excuse to buy the little paper punch :)

5. A good thought for  busy Monday mornings:

Which should come first!!!???

shower?

breakfast?

exercise?

scripture?

prayer?

laundry?

television?

or

chocolate?

Life is so complicated.....

Here's a cute idea to help reduce life's craziness....

6. DIY yogurt cup topping ideas from Always Order Dessert

I think the blueberry and almond cream cup sounds awesome!!!

Here's to a good night's sleep sometime in the future!

Happy Monday!
