Conference Weekend:

We loved what we saw and hopefully by next year our children will have matured will sit and take notes -right?

Personal Highlights:

Elder President Uchtdorf:
My inheritance of the Lord is True Happiness!
It comes through acts of Creation & Compassion.

Elaine S. Dalton:
Being "Poisoned by degrees" Loosing sight of our divine identity.

Mormon Tabernacle Choir:
We Ever Pray For Thee, Sung with such reverence for the mantel which our Prophet carries, and fervency to listen and heed President Monson's Council.

Please comment about one or two topics that touched you.

President Uchtdorf's talk in Women's conference was one of my very favorites- If you want God's happiness, it will come with two things: creation and service.

I also thought President Monson's talk was very sweet. "Never let a problem to be solved be more important than a person to be loved."

The reacurring theme of having more gratitude was definetly something I needed to hear.

Miss you, Jeni! :)

My favorite was Pres. Uchtdorf's talk at conference - regarding hope. It was exactly what I needed to hear.

I loved Elder Bendar's perspective on prayer (and noticed today that it was a continuation of his talk at last conference). He described prayer as a type of spiritual creation and said our morning and evening prayers should not be separate and distinct events. Something to think about.

I also loved Pres Packer's talk on marraige. I love being married and it's wonderful to receive counsel on improving and growing in that area.

Another theme I heard-- simplify and focus on what is essential.
