I was looking at my pictures and I am behind on updating this. I have been busy and haven't been able to really update since Alyssa's birthday... So here it goes. This is what I have been up to the last couple of weeks....
At the End of September we went to a women's conference on campus. The guest speaker was NIENIE!!! Okay so her name is Stephanie Nielson but Nienie too. You may be asking, "Who the heck is Nienie?" If you are, shame on you :) Ok maybe not but you should check her out. She writes the blog: nieniedialogues.blogspot.com
Stephanie was in a serious plane crash a couple of years ago which burned most of her body. She now blogs professionally about her life and making it through the day to day things in her new condition. It was so great to hear her speak. She was very motivational and her story is truly inspirational. Women's Services had planned for 1600 people to come and view the conference and almost 3000 showed up. I was first in line so we got great seats! It was really amazing!
Erin with Megan's baby, Elijah! He just loved the spots on her jacket.
Julia came with a couple of her friends. Her and Alyssa were SO excited. Stephanie's sister Jane was there too so Alyssa was so happy. She reads her blog too.
Look at how big Elijah is getting!
Megan and Elijah came with us! It was so fun to see them and catch up :)
Her speech was so good. And her and her husband are so cute together, they are truly a great example for how every couple should be!
LADIES NIGHT!!!
Every 6 months my church has a general conference where we get to hear from the general authorities of the church all weekend long! It's so great. I look forward to it every time. Every year since our freshman year we have done a Conference Campout. We all pull our mattresses into the living room and sleep out there all weekend long. It's so much fun and such a great tradition.
Every Saturday Night during conference weekend the men attend a session of conference just for the priesthood. While the boys were at priesthood session we went to Comedy Sportz for a Ladies Night celebration. Admission is half off for the ladies and it's always a great show. It was fun to hang out with just the girls :)
CHECK US OUT!!!
It's been a fun couple of weeks. There are still more pictures to come. I told you, I'm behind!
