A WEEKEND WITH THE PROPHET!!

PRESIDENT MONSON
So this weekend we pretty much were everywhere that President Monson was! On Friday night we got to go to the series ending Jazz game! (which was awesome!!!) President Monson was sitting in the suite next to us! All that stood between us, was a thin piece of glass. When not watching the game, we were watching the Prophet and his wife. His wife didn't seem to be enjoying the game much, sleeping through most of it. The Jazz got a few claps out of our cute Prophet, but not a smile. Maybe it was the loud noises, the crazy stunts, or the body guard watching his every move. He seemed to enjoy the array of food though!

Then today we went to Stake Conference, and guess who was on the stand?? You're right! It was President Monson. He lives in our stake, and is very good at coming and visiting. He shared some wonderful memories from his time here. It was amazing! I am so grateful for our wonderful prophet. I feel so blessed to live here in Utah so close to these wonderful men!

25 YEARS AND COUNTING!!


Last week I celebrated my 25th birthday. And surprisingly enough, felt like my 30th. I was freaking out! All the sudden I realized all the things that I still wanted to do before I turned forty, which seemed to be approaching too quickly. Time seemed to be running out!
Then Eric calmed me down, and reassured me of all things that I have already done and am doing. I realized he was right. The last seven years of my life have been incredible. From college to traveling, from teaching to getting married. It has all been great! I wouldn't trade any of it.
My cute class really made my day special. They can always make me feel good. Who wouldn't want this job??

(I had to delete this pic, I don't know if I can put pics of my class on my blog??? Is that illegal?)


They spoiled me with all sorts of treats, cards, and presents.

Hopefully this year will be just as great as the last! Thanks to everyone's Birthday wishes! Love you all!
