We returned home from our California trip late Monday night. The rest of this week has been one of trying to get back into normal routines and time zone.
Our schedule is all over the place – we’re waking up at 10am, eating lunch at 2pm, and going to bed at nearly midnight.
I have such wonderful posts to share with you from our family trip. Time at a blogging retreat (which I have an entire post dedicated to), time with my Tia Helen and Nino in Southern California, and some much needed downtime with my sister in Northern California.
It was refreshing to my mind and soul – Gabe and I definitely needed that time to slip away and rest.
As much as I loved being in California, I’m a Midwest girl at heart. I’m glad to be back and can’t wait to share some of the time I spent in the West coast with you soon.
Until then, I’m going to rest with my children as we go out to forage today. Their science class, up close and personal 😉
I encourage you – if you start to feel heavy burdened and week, take some time to step away from the busyness of life and rest, even if it’s just at home in your garden.
The world will always be there tomorrow. Matthew 6:34
I’d love to know, what do you do to rest from the busyness of this world?
Great post Diana – I cannot wait to here about your CA trip! I’ve seen some other bloggers recaping that conference, it looked like so much fun!
It was so much fun, Ally! Don’t you think maybe we should get some Iowa bloggers together? How much fun would that be??
