What a Good Idea

So...I started listening to some conference talks while working on a project at work. I don't have a favorite (obviously), but I like this one a lot. Thank you to the wonderful leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints who so thoughtfully and prayerfully considered the topics they would speak on this last May.

Oh, and I also went into work today, and saw a new sticky note a co-worker had put on her wall. Just what I needed. It says,

"Peace comes by fitting into God's plan.
Stress
comes by trying to fit God into your plans"

Thank you, my wonderful co-worker, for your thoughts and drive to be better... it helps me too :)

Say Cheese!

Oh what a beautiful life! Honestly, I got what matters and the rest doesn't matter.

My sister-in-law (to be) is getting married in 10 days. Wow, almost in the single digits now - so crazy! I cannot tell you how excited I am for Jenni and Casey to get married! Those two are so cute!


...16 days!! Ekkk! :D

Help Comes

It's amazing what happens with a lot of prayer, and some serious searching for help and answers.

You end up finding help and answers.

It's amazing what happened after I started reading some of the articles and books suggested by my bishop when Matt and I first got engaged - that focuses entirely on the spiritual side of relationships, as well as the temple.

And also the support and prayers of my love, and my fiance, Matt.


So Wonderful :) Thank you, thank you God. For helping me, giving me some answers, and helping me to find my fabulous fiance!
