I was invited to a class to learn about essential oils. I had read about them a little bit on a couple of blogs, but I didn't really know all they could do. I ended up buying one that really helped with my pain when I used it during the class. I really want to learn more about all of the benefits and uses of essential oils, and I'm sure I'll be posting more about them as I do.
We went to a wedding for a couple that Josh and I both knew from our years working with the youth at our church (Josh has known the groom most of his life). The groom's mom also happens to be my massage therapist and one of my good friends. It was a really fun wedding.

I got to help surprise my sweet friend A.G. for her birthday. Her hubby set it all up and she had no idea! It was so fun to be able to spend that evening with her and some of my dearest friends.
I read the final book (Allegiant) in the Divergent series...and let me tell you, it's a major tear jerker. I'm still not sure that I can say that I "liked" it, but it was a great read and a good ending for the series. I am very excited for the Divergent movie coming out in March!
I have a new obsession. I bought a bag of the new peppermint white chocolate M&M's because I had a coupon for them...and it was love at first bite. Seriously. They are so good. I'm already on my second bag and I don't think it will be my last. Sometimes even us healthy eating girls have to splurge.
I went and saw Catching Fire with some of my favorite people on Friday night. I cried through the majority of the movie. I haven't re-read the book since I read it the first time so there were definitely some things I'd forgotten. But most of all, I thought they did such a better job on this movie compared to the first one. I'm just so sad that we have to wait another whole year for part one of Mockingjay.
We went out to sushi with some of the people on the worship team at church. It was so fun to watch the reactions of those who hadn't tried sushi before.
And finally, this weekend I threw a Murder Mystery Party for Josh's birthday. We went to one a few years ago for A.G. and we had such a great time. I wanted to do something fun with our friends to celebrate the hubby and this was definitely the perfect way to do it. We crammed 26 people into our tiny house, it was way too hot with that much body heat, and there was a whole lot of laughing...and I wouldn't have had it any other way.
Three of my favorite girls! I wasn't a character, my sis-in-law was a principal, S.W. was a librarian, and my sister was a pastry chef
The butcher, a news reporter, the police chief, and the mayor
A beauty pageant director, a bull rider, three news reporters, and the CEO of a cereal company
My brother-in-law was the obnoxious local celebrity
My sweet friend L.B. and her hubby were the professor and the tailor
The two on the left were a hair stylist and a veterinarian
It's been such a great month and it's not even over yet! I am definitely looking forward to more fun celebrations this week.
