more to come ...

Now what do we do?

Mitt has officially pulled out of the running. I was listening to his speech and it broke my heart. I agree with everything he says. He really was the best candidate! He is what this country needs right now. So now what? Am I really going to have to choose between Hillary, McCain or Obama? I really don't want to vote for a democrat ... but the alternative is not much better. I wish someone could convince me that one of the remaining candidates is worth voting for. It is going to be an interesting four years. I am officially tired of this election.

VOTE!

Don't forget to vote today!!!

Oh the things we will do!

My dad had some skin cancer removed from his nose. It ended up being pretty major with several stitches. He had a stitch that was sticking out and driving him crazy. So he asked me to clip it off for him. Good thing I have never had any aspirations to become a surgeon. My hands are way to shaky! My brother in law, Dan, thought this was so funny that he took a couple pictures. Oh the things we will do!

Winter Wonderland

This is the view from my front door this morning. It doesn't do it justice at all! They even canceled church!

This morning as I came to school I noticed several students dressed up. It turns out that the student body of my school started a text message chain encouraging each other to wear "best dress" today in honor of Pres. Hinckley. I am so impressed with our students. As I look out at my class right at this moment it is hard not to get teary as I see young men wearing ties and the girls in their dresses honoring a great man! I love that I live in Utah where something like this can and does happen.

The first thing I thought of when I heard that President Hinckley died was the amazing reunion that was taking place at that moment. Just imagine how the heavens opened and he was reunited with his sweet wife, the greeting line of all the prophets that have gone before him, choirs of angels, friends and family, and most importantly our Savior saying, "Well done thy good and faithful servant." What a spectacular event that must have been!

I'm hooked!

I found this on a friends blog ... thanks Amanda. Try it! It makes you smart and feeds the hungry!
