Conference Weekend

I love conference :) It gives me a chance to listen to the soothing voices of our apostles.  And even though I end up falling asleep, I know that it was good.  I'm so grateful for all our apostles and the work they put into their talks.  What they say, is especially for us, straight from God.  It's truly amazing.

My weekend started off with a BEAUTIFUL Friday.  I had two classes and then was able to enjoy the rest of the afternoon.  I sat outside and read for awhile then came inside to clean.  It felt so good to be able to clean and do laundry.  I just felt so productive and accomplished.  I finished reading my book (The Lucky One by Nicholas Sparks...so great!) and then went outside again because Sam, Hillary, and Jenna were playing with chalk and I thought that sounded fun.  When that was done I went to watch Tangled with Susan, Anna, Bree, Amy, and Carly.  That is the best movie!  Well, one of the best at least.  Then we got Icee's and candy and went to the park.  We found this girl's phone and while trying to figure out whose it was we read some texts from this boy Elliot.  They were hilarious.  I can't even begin to tell you.  Anyway the girl came back and I gave it to her.  Me, Bree, and Carly were spinning on the tire swing and started to not feel so great, but then I still ended up throwing up Icee.  I do not recommend it if you can ever avoid that situation.  It was like sweet but acidic and not fun.  We went back to Bree's and watched She's the Man and that was the extent of our night.  It was lots of fun!  And I ended up sleeping at Amy's in Micadyn's bed because Kat's sister was here and I told her she could have my bed for the night.

Well, Saturday morning I went to breakfast with Kat and Natalie to IHOP.  Then I watched conference with Amy and then we went to The Grind to try some drinks and just walked along scenic Main Street in Cedar City.  We went to the store and got stuff for caramel popcorn too!  Then we went to Bree's to watch the afternoon session with Anna, Susan, Bree, and Carly.  It was great!  Breezy made us delicious cinnamon pull-aparts!  Me and Ames went to The Tempest Retold later that night and then to Applebee's with her friend Matt who was in the comedy.  Bedtime was calling my name by then even though I'd napped on and off.

Sunday!! I watched both sessions at Amy's with her, Anna, and Susan.  We made caramel popcorn and played card games in between the sessions.  I love those girls.  I remember at one point waking up during the afternoon session at the end of C. Scott Grow's talk.  Yeah, "See Scott Grow"  I got a kick out of it!!  Elder Richard G. Scott's talk was probably one of my favorites though.  He talked about marriage and how us young single adults need to get there, but he didn't make it seem like a huge deal.  I feel like he focused more on getting guys to ask on dates and make them meaningful so that the relationship can be meaningful and possibly lead to a meaningful marriage.  He's been one of my favorites ever since primary.

Basically this weekend was so much fun!  I love the girls that I get to hang around with and they are all such great examples in my life.  I hope everyone enjoyed conference as much as I did!!
