Getting Discouraged

-
Hello,

Long time... I am currently writing this blog in July, but changed the date to March so that I can hopefully do some updates on everything.

I got discouraged after writing my post on March 24th.  I couldn't find the videos I wanted for the prompt that day and I felt kind of stupid since no one else really wanted to join in on them. I know, it's silly.  I should be doing it because I want to, not if it's popular.  It just made me feel like I was stupid for even trying to create something.  Oh well... I will do my best next time to not let it get me down.

Then we went to St. George for spring break and to take pictures for Xander's graduation announcements.

I just haven't felt like blogging much.  It's sad because I really enjoy sharing my thoughts, family, adventures, etc.  I also like being able to look back on these days and reminisce.

I find it easy to get discouraged when I feel like the stuff I share isn't being liked.  I know, that's silly...  I need to remember that this is for ME!

What do you do to not get discouraged?

What helps you?

Here is a photo of the grape hyacinths in our yard.

Pink Chicken Coop - DIY Chicken Coop

Here is our Pink Chicken Coop that we did ourselves. We built it in 2019. Nick built it and the kids and I painted it. He came up with the plans, after showing him some I liked, and built it. Then Brichette painted the Sunflower 🌻 and bee 🐝 on it for me. It wasn’t very hard to build and didn’t cost much. I love it so much!  We added party lights and pink lights for the night. 🤩

Popcorn

Today is National Popcorn Day (along with National Tin Can Day and Get to Know Your Customer’s Day). We love popcorn! 🍿 We eat it all the time.  We like to make our own, but also like the white cheddar Smatfood popcorn, kettle corn, caramel popcorn, from the movie theater, and even some gas stations. Today I made caramel popcorn. I got the recipe from Nick’s mom. You can find the recipe  Here Xander got this popcorn maker as a white elephant gift. This is the white cheddar popcorn we like. Did you know… Popcorn is over 5,000 years old. World War II’s sugar shortage led to Americans to eat 3x more popcorn. It’s gluten free Nebraska produces more popcorn than any other state. Unpopped kernels are called Old Maids Americans eat 17 Billion quarts every year. It’s the state snack of Illinois. What are your favorite flavors of popcorn?

Brichette's Bridals

  I love to take photos.  It is so enjoyable for me.  I took Brichette's Bridals for her wedding.  We went to a church downtown because they have a huge garden area with a stream running through it. I know I'm not the best photographer, but I do enjoy it. :) Brichette painted her shoes herself! She did an amazing job (like she always does)!
