Be strong, and of good courage!

With the roller-coaster ups and downs of life along with the integral drama that fills the emptiness of boredom, it's really important that we do the best we can to stay strong and make a difference. Stake Youth Conference was amazing this last weekend. On friday night we were able to participate in an ettiquette dinner which they thought was unique. Little did they know........it wasn't. It was fun and educational just not unique. After dinner we were entertained be Full Scale which was an all-mormon acapella group which was phenomonal. They were able the permeate every soul with the comfort of the spirit and create an amazing start to the youth conference. Their performance was able to remind us why the Gospel is so important and why we were all there at youth conference.
Saturday morning we were treated with doughnuts and orange juice accompanied with an array service opportunities. I got to serve at the Opportunity Village Thrift Store. What they do their is very important to those who are less fortunate. We helped organize, stabalize, and sterilize the store. The best part of service is knowing that you were able to make other people's lives happier and easier by making that small wave that would soon cause a tsunami of service acts everywhere. That night we had the priviledge of listening to 12 amazing and talented speakers at the Speech Festival. Topics ranged from dating to trials to even shotguns. Once we heard them we got to go to the dance. Church dances are always very fun to go to. Although not everyone is acting the way they should I know that the friends I am hanging out with help me keep to my standards. Also, they help me keep Lady Kanye from stalking and video-taping me.
Finally we ended youth conference with a bang. Testimony meetings for me are always strengthening for my spirit. They provide that extra little pick-me-up that reminds me that everything will be ok. With an ice cream bar to finish we all went home to spread the word and knowledge we had gained from youth conference. Joshua 1:9 Be strong, and of good courage!

Everyday

I have been hurting so much lately. I don't know why but I am. I can't stand it and I need to get control over it before school starts or else I'm in big trouble!

Families Can Be Together Forever

I am just on a roll tonight with all of my posts. My sister is so amazing. She is such a hard worker and knows what she wants! She will definetly be just fine on her own, but I will miss her so much. Even though she can be a little bossy.......ok, very bossy sometimes it always turns out fine. The person next to Morgan in the picture is Nanny. Nanny is my dad's mom and she is one of the best grandmas ever! About a month ago Nanny had a heart attack and survived! She is still up and running and I am so greatful for everything she has done. She is so caring and she definetly perseveres. I love my family especially my sister. Even though she may be leaving, she will always be in my heart, and at Christmas lol. She is a part of the family and we are not complete without her.

If The Savior Stood Beside Me

Tonight I have been having a really hard time sleeping with all my pain. I have been going through a lot metally, physically, and especially spiritually lately. All of these trials I have been going through have really tested my faith and righteousness. I have realized that the Lord really does have something big planned for me. The Lord really loves me and my family. His love for us has shown greatly as we have overcome numerous obstacles and difficulties in the last few years. I know His gospel is true and I am so greatful for it and what it has done for me all through my life. It has made me stop and think 'If the Savior stood beside me would I do the things I do?' One of the problems I have been having lately is respect, especially toward my mom. You know, you don't realize how rude you are in a situation until you see it done by someone else. You think 'How much ruder could he/she be to mom!' When I have the time to stop and come to the conclusion that I do that to, I really become greatful for what the Lord has blessed me with. My mom is the so giving and such an amazing person. I love her so much! I also love the Lord and Heavenly Father. I know He has a plan and I am going to hold to the rod!

Imagine

If no one already know all my posts are song titles lol. Imagine that!

Fuego

Today I realized how much I really appreciate my mom and what she does for my family. She hurts all the time and no one knows what is wrong. She still manages to keep us all from fighting and the house from burning down lol. She means so much to me and I hope that she can see that.The love that she shows for us can be seen by everyone and she tries her very best to keep everyone happy. She is the best mom ever and keeps us from catching on fuego!
