Conference Weekend

This last weekend was great! It was Conference plus I was not on call and I got to spend time with my Family and Friends! Friday night I went to dinner with Leesha and then hung out and chatted for a little bit.  Then on Saturday I watched the morning and part of the afternoon session of Conference.  There was some really good talks that I learned a lot from.  I really enjoyed the talk about having children and that it is between you, your spouse, and the Lord.  Not that I am having any children anytime soon, but I just really liked the message that was conveyed in the talk.  Later on Saturday Jeanna and I met up and went up the canyon to Brighton.  We went to Silver Lake and walked around to see the fall colors.  It was really beautiful up there.  It was so nice to get out of the City and head up to where you can think about life and what God has really done for you.  Everywhere you look you can see that God created this earth.  How blessed we are!!! The colors of the leaves were awesome and our walk was really good too.  When we were coming around the corner we saw a Moose! Jeanna wanted to get a really good picture of it, so she hiked down to get a little closer..... mind you she was in her dress shoes that have a little heel on them! She did however get a really great picture of the moose! After going up the canyon we met up with my Family for dinner after the guys got done with the Priesthood session.  We met them at El Farol and so there was Mom and Dad,  Me and Jeanna, Kort and Russ, Kendall and Hayley, Britt and Mike, and the Spoeirri Family.  We had a lot of fun talking and laughing.

  Sunday was another good day because another day of no call and spending time with the Family. I got to go to my parents for Conference.  I got there in time for a really yummy breakfast and to listen to the morning session of Conference.  I loved when the Prophet talked about how we need to be communicating with our Heavenly Father.  He said that if we are not doing it on a daily basis then to begin now.  I love the idea that we can go to Him at anytime whether we are in need or if we are just saying are daily prayers. There was also another talk by a women I forgot her name, but I loved her talk.  She spoke on how Fathers should be showing there Daughters that they love there Mothers and that the daughters know they are from a Royal Birth.  My Dad has always shown my Mother love and I am so grateful for his example and for his love for our Savior Jesus Christ.  My Dad has always bore testimony to us that he knows that Christ lives and that we can be with Him again someday if we live worthy.  I am so grateful for my Mom and Dad and for the testimonies they have and for there examples.  I also enjoyed the afternoon Conference with my Family and then headed down town to go hang out with Niks Family.  I enjoyed having dinner with the Johnson's and playing games.  We always have such a great time and it is so nice that they include me in there Family while Nik is gone.  Well life has been crazy, but it has also been good...... and I am sure that there will be much more to write about soon! :)
