Thought I'd Share...

I know I sat and heard this talk back in 2008, but I was reminded of it the other day as I was reading a friend's blog.  She had the following quote on her sidebar and I was instantly grateful for the reminder!


"The more you trust and rely upon the Spirit, the greater your capacity to create. That is your opportunity in this life and your destiny in the life to come. Sisters, trust and rely on the Spirit. As you take the normal opportunities of your daily life and create something of beauty and helpfulness, you improve not only the world around you but also the world within you."


Here is the link to the talk, so you can enjoy it again or for the very first time! 


Happiness, Your Heritage



Another item I have been reading recently is the book, Change Your Questions, Change Your Life.  Many of you may have already heard me talk about this book, but if you haven't, click on the title and you will be able to read an excerpt from the book. I would definitely recommend this book, in many ways it is an easy read, but if you are anything like me you'll have a notebook at your side, so it'll take you a bit longer.


I've had a rough couple days, but I am so grateful for resources like these that remind me of all that I am capable of.  I never thought I would be grateful for hard things, but I am humbled that Heavenly Father trusts me enough to go through hard things & come out on the other side stronger and more ready to yield to the Spirit, becoming just a little more of who He knows me to be.  This week I so appreciate the simple words Stephanie posted "MIRACLES ARE MADE FROM ADVERSITY", and hope that for every adversity we face, we will see the miracles that are all around us.

CHAMPION OF THE WORLD

Saints are the SuperBowl Champs! We had so much fun watching the game with friends & it was so great to see the boys win the big game for a city that deserves some celebration. Did you hear that over 800,000 people showed up to the celebratory parade for the team?

It was so fun to see his little face all over the T.V.  On Tuesday this little clip aired on The Ellen Degeneres  Show... into the clip a bit Reggie is the player in the team locker room leading the Who Dat cheer for some Who Dat spankies.  I love that he almost knocks the lady over giving her a chest bump!!

We are so excited for you boys and the great city of New Orleans.
We are so excited for the wedding in 2 weeks, what a GREAT celebration it will be!
