Cabo San Lucas






I am officially now in Cabo San Lucas taking my break as I mentioned and can't wait to finish all my reading material and to continue to work on my blog and re-evaluate my life as a mother, daughter, friend, and wife.

Trent is lucky enough to travel at times with his business and I too get lucky at times because I get to tag along and it just so happened that this vacation that was planned 2 months ago happened when it did! I couldn't have come at a better time.

My plan is to just engross my mind with goodness and start anew.

We attended with Trents marketing group that he and Dustin run together. I was able to meet some great people who have a desire to help others in their business.

I was able to sit in on one of their sessions and we all spoke about goal setting and how we are to implement our goals into action and spoke of what are are our downfalls and road blocks.

My mind has constant guilt about my priorities and how I don't put God first in my life. I've known this for a very long time and don't do anything about it. It just mulls over in my head daily and I do make sure the children are aware but it's not everyday.

We had many conversations between Sean, Donica, and Sarah about God and his role in each of our lives. It was great to see their prospective of he works in their lives and what they have done to accept him in his life.

One particular night we spoke with Sean and he is just a very happy guy and is constantly smiling and just enjoyable to be around. Well he opened up to us about he was not religious at all until he met his wife and has since enjoyed his journey.

He asked many questions about our faith and missionary work. Which others did as well because of Trents Spanish so it was a great opportunity to speak of what we believe and especially our choice to not drink because that is what everyone else around us was doing.

Each time I'm around this atmosphere I think of Elder Perry's talk about how he'd ask for milk and it became a standing option for him each time he was with his business associates.

I was reminded time and time again just how much joy and happiness I feel when I keep doing what's right.

Each time I attend these business outings with Trent I become more and more impresses with the knowledge he has and how much these people look up to him. These people each pulled me aside and just raved about just how lucky I am and how much they've enjoyed learning from him. I get a little giddy each time that happens because I know just how much effort he puts out and the joy he sees in helping people and helping them implement what he teaches and does.

I feel very blessed and just before this vacation stared I knew that my attitude had to change and to be more grateful and I think this has opened my eyes once again to keep an attitude of gratitude.
