Have you ever?

Have you ever had a day where you literally sat down for 45 minutes and that was it?

That was my day today.

It was a really long day and it wasn’t just long for me. Around noon today Max ended up trying to fall asleep (and sadly failing) curled up in his blanket on the floor of the gym at church. So sad.

Today I’ve cooked for hours, been to Wal-Mart twice, set up tables and chairs, laid out place settings, and contemplated centerpieces. 

Tonight was the Relief Society Birthday dinner and it was lovely. Gold chargers under every plate made the room glow and the fresh flowers looked so pretty. But the best thing about the night was listening to the sisters share their testimonies of Visiting Teaching. We finished up and the sisters went home looking happy. We cleaned up and then looked at each other and said, “Great, let’s do this again tomorrow!”

Because tomorrow we’re in charge of the zone conference luncheon. Luckily the Elders won’t notice if decide not to bring out the gold chargers.
