The Lovliest Place

While still cleaning my room, I camp upon a quote the brought back many fond memories.
"This is the lovliest place and the best people under the heavens. Little do they know the trials that await them" -Jospeh Smith
Dad, Sar, Mike and I were able to participate in the Nauvoo pageant for two weeks this past summer. We got to share our testimonies by singing and dancing like the saints in Nauvoo. I loved this adventure. Nauvoo is such a lovely place and we did meet some of the best people under the heavens.

Tia, the directors daughter, and sarah and i one our last Sunday there.

Joseph Smith and us being goofy the last night.

The Nauvoo temple- trademark of Nauvoo.

A lot of our dear friends- blue cast members

I love Nauvoo, and if you ever have a chace, go visit. It's an experience you're sure not to forget!

Care Free

While cleaning my room tonight, I was listening to the song Care Free by Jon Schmidt ( a wonderful and calming song) and I found this quote that I love. Here's how it goes:

God is weaving his tapestry according to his own grand design. All flesh is in his hands. It is not our perogative to counsel him. It is our responsibility and our opportunity to be at peace in our minds and in our hearts, and to know that he is God, that this is his work, and that he will not permit it to fail. -Gordon B. Hinckley

What a reminder that Heavenly Father has a plan for us! As we are Care Free and let Heavenly Father's plan unfold, we will see all he has in store for us!
