Internet speed

So, I got this email a few weeks ago, actually I got it twice. It was someone's notes from sacrament meeting. It had good things to say and mine said it was by Pres. Packer. My sister got it and it said it was Pres. Monson, and my VT partner got it and it said it was Pres. Oaks. I talked to another woman in the mother's lounge who got it 3 times in an hour. The church officially says that things aren't official unless it is published by them. Well, we had stake conference this weekend and Pres. Packer spoke, it was great, but it made me think of this email I received. It got around so fast, and so many people read it, with enthusiasm. I just hope everyone reads their conference Ensign with the same excitement. We got ours last week or you can go on lds.org and read all of them if you prefer to use your computer. There are many talks about preparing for hard times. Elder Cook even quotes Pres. Hinckley's comparison of the years of plenty and then years of famine from Joseph of Egypt's time. So, please read your coference reports, don't make me have to copy and paste them into an email and start the frenzy.

Happy Halloween

We had lots of fun for Halloween. Lucy was a monster and had to put her costume on each day after her bath, she was so excited. I wasn't going to go spend money on a new costume, since this was a hand-me-down and so cute, so she wore high-waters. She didn't mind. We tried to teach her to say trick-or-treat, but mostly got tk-tk-tk-tk-tk. The video is the best one I got, but it isn't a very good video. Then most of my pictures were blurry too. I am bummed, you try to be a good parent and document everything, but to no avail. Anyway, we went to a fantastic carnival with some friends at the beginning of our evening and Lucy had a blank stare for most of it, as in the picture of her at the fishing pond with Gary. She figured it out by the end and was wild the rest of the evening. We finished the evening with friends with smaller children who aren't interested in trick-or-treating. I can tell, she is going to Love Halloween each year.
