Copenhagen

Denmark!

What a wonderful charming place this is!  If I could handle the cold and speak Danish I would seriously  consider moving here!  The people are oh so very friendly, come to find out they are one of the happiest countries in the world!  Oh yeah, got to love that, good stuff!  All of the architecture is so charming, every building I pass I have an absolute obsession with.  They are all dressed with fun colors and pretty detailing.  

We touched down yesterday and were able to go down into the middle of the city.  Turns out yesterday was national reading day and so they gave out free books and hot chocolate to every one!  It was so charming!  We got got meat and cheese and some bread and ate it as we fed the little crumbs to our little pigeon friends, they quite liked it.  

Because of the time difference we woke up in the wee hours of the morning and got to scope out the town before the hustle and bustle of the day.  I found out the Dains have caught onto a marvelous idea! Get this chocolate on your cinnamon roll, brilliant right!  I would have thought I would have already thought to do that, I am for sure bringing that idea back to the states with me!  

 The Marble church

 The canal boat tour!  So beautiful! 

mum and scotty on the tour, so charming, now look at that smile...

 Harry Potter shout out!  We found a lil chocolate frog! I felt like a little childhood dream had come true!  One step closer to becoming a wizard! 

 My mom brother and I were able to go to the Copenhagen LDS (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- Day Saints) temple!  
So beautiful!  

If you want to know why I am so into temples, they are pretty incredible!

spring Spring SPRING!

                                                         It is spring time!! 
I wish I could have a really big megaphone like Oprah, when she is announcing her give aways! It is really one of the most beautiful times of the year might I add.  I used to love the scene from Bambi where all the little critters come out to play and see all the pretty flowers!  Oh man!  The trees full of bloom this year are killing me!  I mean can you say g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s! I do not think I really appreciated spring as much as I should until this year.   I grew up in California, then spent a few years in tropical Hawaii, then got to get some southern lovin in good ole Alabama for a few years, (spring there lasts for a few days and then its all hot and humid, it is good for the pores ;)  and now here I am loving all the blossoms in this state of Utah!  mmmhhhhmm,  I feel like I should be dancing down the street, picking up all the wild flowers.  Aren't the seasons just beautiful!  It really reminded me of how kind and loving Father in Heaven is!! Amazing!  To think He creates incredible sunsets, every little flower, oceans, lakes, river, oranges, pinecones and especially my favorite... drum roll please.... puppies just for us!!!! Oh man He is good!! Think about how much love that is, I mean when I was little to show my mom I loved her I made her a cheerio necklace, and not going to lie I was not good at it!  I know that its not that hard but trust me.  But think about all the Father has blessed us with!! I hope you can feel it has he kisses you as a parent would kiss their little child when the sun rays gently glide across your face!  I hope you feel His love when a soft breeze blows your face.  Remember that every thing is here because He loves you and it all makes life oh so much more fun!!! I hope as you walk down the street this spring afternoon you have a little extra bounce in your step, and think, dang life is good, real good!  Because you matter to Him!


I love this spring song!!! woot woot!!!   This is an old classic!! 7 Brides for 7 Brothers! I used to love watching this with my Grandma Zola when I was little! Never gets old!!
