CONFERENCE WEEKEND!

So, I got to go to Utah for Conference Weekend! THANK YOU I NEEDED IT. It was so great to have a mini vacation. We got a ride with Natalie, thank you again Nat! I stayed at my friend's Missy's house in North Jordan. Cache Valley is... so pretty!!!!! So, friday we went to get Chick Fil'a with Missy's sister, Maddie which was delicious. Saturday we woke up, got ready and drove down to Salt Lake hoping we would get tickets to Saturday Afternoon session. We got there and I literally saw so many people I knew!!! I ran into Natalie and Kelsey, Daniel Young (a mission who served in Redmond Third... YEARS ago), Spencer and Conrad, Sister Gee, Leo and more!



So Missy's Mom said we should try to find some sister Missionaries and hope they give us tickets. We started talking to these sweet sisters who didn't have any tickets sadly but told us they'd pray for us to find tickets! We decided then to go wait in the Standby line. Missy started getting a bloody nose so ran to the bathroom and not even 5 minutes later, a man came up to me (who looked pretty serious and had a packet of something in his hand) and asked me how many tickets I needed!!! PRAYER WORKS PEOPLE! and they were AMAZING SEATS!!!!! After conference we went and took pictures in front of the temple of course. It was just an amazing day! I am so so sooo blessed that I was able to attend conference live for the first time, EVER!

Hello October!

Three weeks down of school! 11 weeks left of the semester! Anyways, I've been keeping busy but having fun! Lets see, there has been a lot going on! Natalie and I and "the boys" went to Rock the Block the first weekend of school and that was a lot of fun! Different bands played and I met up with my friends Maddison and Missy! Then, me and my friends went and got Nielsen's frozen custard and went on a walk to the temple one night which was just so nice! The weather has been perfect these last three weeks.

Jeffery R. Holland came and spoke at devotional last week. IT WAS THE BEST. He talked about happiness and how we can gain happiness. By living the gospel and following Christ's example. One quote, he said that I loved was "Don't base your happiness on someone's UNhappiness." GREAT REMINDER!! A lot of the time people base their happiness on others opinions (which can be negative which is their unhappiness) which we should NOT do!! Also, last friday I "modeled" for Natalie and her roommate Courtney which was loads of fun! They are both insanely talented.

I'm blessed to have the people I do in my life. Not only here in Rexburg but my family and Ian as well. Ian's doing amazing work and I am so proud of him. I love him with all my heart and can't wait to talk to him! He's been gone for 8 months now!!!!! Crazy! 1/3 of the way done :)
