#LDSCONF

I love conference and I feel like it always comes at the perfect time (even though its the same time every year.) It is still mind boggling to me how I hear exactly what I need to hear each time and gain so much from it when none of the speakers are given a specific speaking assignment or topic. 

Conference is always that little bit of hope that seems to make everything better. My friend and I were talking about this when we were visiting teaching. We both agreed that even though a trial that we are going through is not changing our outlook, attitude or feelings can change by listening to conference, going to the temple, etc. and can make the trial easier. 

Conference always enforces the importance of marriage and family. As I was listening to a talk I was thinking how fortunate I am to have married such a great man. Matt is such a great example to me of endless amount of service and faith in the gospel. I am grateful for the fact that we can speak candidly with one another. I am grateful for the marriage we have and the relationship that we share. I am grateful for how hard he works towards his goals that in turn will benefit our family. I am grateful for how smart and wise he is. I am happy to say that we really are the best of friends and truly enjoy one another's company. I get teary eyed thinking of how great of a dad he will be one day. He treats me like a queen and gives me more than I deserve! 

Some of my favorite randoms from conference: 
1. We must not see men as they are, but as what they can become.
2. The Savior wants to forgive us. Its that simple. 
3. Marriages are based on cooperation, not negotiation. Marriage is also a gift of God. 
4. Technology is really over taking our daily lives. Matt and I have decided to set aside time to completely turn off all technology and enjoy each others company.
5. Where there is respect there is also transparency. 

While all the boys went to Priesthood session that girls went shopping. 
She is quite the fashionista already! 

Park City was a perfect weekend getaway! 
We enjoyed a lot of time with family and a lot of relaxing. Matt is totally her favorite and I think its really cute.
