missing something...

i'll be the first to admit that sometimes i complain about how long church is and getting bored. i know, i know...i'm repenting. but the past couple of weeks i've been traveling, etc. and haven't been able to go to church every week and i have noticed such a huge difference in my life that it actually kind of surprised me.  it's just seemed like something has been missing and i haven't felt like the spirit has been as prevalent in my life. that just goes to show me...not complaining anymore.  really though, it's been a good reminder of how important the little things are like just attending your meetings, reading your scriptures, praying, etc. etc. etc. 

on that note.  i've been listening to past conferences talks recently and have happened upon some phenomenal ones that i'd forgotten about.  such as...


this talk is beyond amazing and has become one of my favorites.  i probably listen to it at least once a week, just to remind myself of all the truths in it. listen to it if you haven't, or even if you have. i promise you won't be sorry.

the church is true and i love it.

the best part of the summer.

best part of summer: boating


this past weekend matt, brenna, and tim came to visit. 


we boated [of course]. bbq'd. ice cream potato-ed. and it was awesome


because i suck at taking pictures {as in...i never do} i don't have many but here are a few snapshots of their water sport skills. which were pretty impressive






all in all. great weekend.
