Amazing Weekend

Well, like most of you, im sure, we got the opportunity to listen to conference this weekend. We LOVE to get to listen to conference! Its so amazing and inspiring to listen to words of counsel just for US! I love listening to Pres. Monson....i could listen to him and his stories all day long....But yesterday we had another wonderful addition to the weekend. Troy and I were priviledged to attend Disnee's patriarchal blessing yesterday morning, and for her to receiver her own counsel for "HER". WOW! It was the singlehanded most spiritual experience I have had in maybe forever....What a choice spirit she is!! not to brag...but wow the blessing was so amazing. I was bawling my head off so bad, i hope the tape recorder can understand his words!!! The blessing was so amazing and was so detailed and so beautiful! It was very long as well. We have always know what an amazing young woman she is, but this just enforced on us the reality of her wonderful spirit. I am so thankful for her and for all she has done for me in my life. Just the priveledge of being her mom is a prize in itself. As we were preparing for this day, i was so truly excited and was feeling very nostalgic about Troy and I having our first born receive her pat. blessing. Wow we are so old, but so priveledged to be her parents. Ok..i guess thats enough of bragging on my daughter. I am so thankful to my Heavenly Father for the wonderful children he has offered to let me have on this earth to be a part of their lives!! There is nothing on earth greater than the love of a family!! I love my family.

Im so grateful for a living prophet on the earth who speaks to us today. I love President Monson! I'm so grateful for the gospel. Hope everyone got the opportunity to watch conference!
