Seven Brides for Seven Brothers!!!

Okay, so one of my favorite movies of all time is Seven Brides for Seven Brothers! I hadnt seen it in a while, so today, we watched it!!! This was actually the first time my 7 year old brother Sam has seen it, and (of course) he loved the fact that a bunch of guys were kidnapping a bunch of girls! Soooooooo, if you havent seen it, go watch it!

Quote Of The Day!!!

Adam: This is my brother Caleb.
Milly: How are you brother Caleb?
Adam: This is Milly, my wife.
Caleb: Your wife? Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle! Hey Dan, he did it, he got married!

General Conference

Twice a year (the first weekend in April and October) my church has something called General Conference. It is where the leaders of our church talk about different principles of the gospel. Well, General Conference was just held last week and one of the most powerful talks I have ever heard was told...This talk was spoken by Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. He spoke about the Book of Mormon and he bore his testimony of it like no one as heard before! The spirit was everywhere and everyone, including little kids, looked up and listened to him! It was amazing!!! You can go see it here
Quote Of The Day
"I want it absolutely clear. When I stand before the judgement bar of God. That I declared to the world, in the most straight-forward language I could summon, that the Book of Mormon is true! That it came forth, and was given to bring happiness and hope to the faithful in the travail of the last days!" -Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, General Conference October 2009

Leavenworth!


My whole entire Young Womens (9 girls and 5 leaders came) stayed at a cabin in Leavenworth last night! It was one of our leaders family cabin, it used to be a church so it is huge!

When we first got there, me and the other 2 Beehives made Tacos and Pumpkin-chocolate chip cookies for dinner!

Then, we all got bundled up and walked around the town...we went inside the Nutcracker Shop, the Hat shop, the Christmas Shop, and the Candy Shop!
When we got back to the cabin, we all got in our pajamas and did a spa! We did chocolate facials, and foot baths! it felt soooooo good...

Then, we watched The Legend of Johnny Lingo (I love that movie!) and Sabrina gave us all amazing pedicures! When we finally went to bed (around midnight) Me, Sabrina, and Victoria stayed up till 4:30 in the morning talking! We only got 3 hours of sleep!

In the morning, we ate a yummy pancake and sausage breakfast and bundled up again to go on a nature hike at Blackbird Island...the scenery was gorgeous!!! We even saw huge fish in the river! They were so big, they were the size of small sharks!
The trip was great and I hope that the Young Women get to go together again!!!
