Don't blink, you might miss it...

My cute sister-in-law is getting married in less than 2 weeks, and we are SO excited for her (are they cute or what)!
On our drive home from Bryce Canyon last night I started to think about when Matt and I were dating and engaged. A hundred years ago, I know :), but it feels like yesterday. I remember being so anxious to get engaged,
then looking forward to our wedding,move to Vegas, first house (the front door was on the side, weird, but we loved that house!),then came the first baby,moved to Utah, second house, second baby,vacations, running our construction company, busy-ness, life, third baby on the way (yes, that is my big butt 7 months prego, go ahead, laugh :)...
it's a blur. It all just started, yet it's all gone so fast. My best and only advice to Aimee is to enjoy it. Don't miss a thing. As we drove I found myself watching my cute kids alseep in the backseat of the car and just stared at them, trying to freeze that moment in my mind forever so I wouldn't forget it. There are always so many things to look forward to, but I don't want to be so busy looking forward to tomorrow that I forget to live for today. So Aimee, don't look ahead, just live and love every minute now, and don't blink, you might miss it.
