conference

Last night was the Relief Society general conference broadcast. I was able to attend with the Carbondale Ward and Julia stayed with 'papa Rick." It was a wonderful time. I was able to visit with old friends and my sister-in-law played some beautiful music after dinner and before the broadcast to set the tone. I loved the messages that were given. I want to tell every woman in the world, 'you are better than you think you are.' You are a better wife, mother, and person than you think. I love when the spirit speaks things that I know I need to hear while these talks are broadcast to women across the world. It was wonderful, and the Lord truly loves each of us - even when we don't love ourselves as much as we should. I'm excited for next week, and trying to think how in the world I will be able to keep my kids occupied so I can pay attention.

I love seeing different messages that spoke to different people, you saw that we are all better then we are... thank goodness or there would be a lot more prozac rx, I noticed that I need to get off my butt and serve others and go create something other then a coach potato daughter! Conference is awesome, I can't wait for this weekend either! Good luck keeping two entertained... I can't hardly do one still!

While I am not the sister-in-law that thrilled you with awesome music, I did want to let you know that I/we really enjoyed having you here in town his past week. You bring a great spirit with you, and make our lives a little brighter each time we get to see you and those beautiful little girls you have. We love you and miss you even when you are only gone a while. Good luck getting the girls to "be reverent" for conference, and we hope to see you some time before Turkey Day!!
