Wonderful Weekend

I had the best weekend last weekend!! It has been filled with my favorite things!

On Friday and Saturday I got to spend time with my old roommates Lorette and Teri and Jen. On Saturday I got to visit Shana and her family and my grandparents. And on Saturday and Monday I got to spend time with Chad! I love those people!

My stake conference was this weekend, and Elder Bednar was there. I was able to listen to Elder Bednar, an apostle of God, speak for almost two hours! One hour on Saturday and one hour on Sunday. He is an amazing speaker!! I am going to do another blog about something he said that I am SO excited about! He is such a tender, powerful, funny, wise person! I’ll confess I used to be a little afraid of him, but not anymore! I love Elder Bednar!

On Friday I was able to attend a meeting to increase awareness and motivation to help alleviate the problem of world poverty and hunger. I love international development and want to help children!

And last but not least, I danced in three rounds of fox trot and three rounds of tango in DanceSport! And I was able to watch two nights of AMAZING ballroom dance on Friday and Saturday night! It moves me! It is just so beautiful and expressive. One couple’s smooth waltz honestly brought me to tears, it conveyed so beautifully the love and magic that can be in a relationship. The pictures at the bottom of this post are pictures the photographer took of my partner and me during the competition. All of the fox trot pictures looked pretty much the same, so I only got one of them, but I liked three of the tango pictures, so I got those. I look pretty intense in the tango pictures, but that’s okay because the tango is an intense dance! I love ballroom dance!

Hasn’t it been a wonderful weekend?!
