BYU Women's Conference





Just got back from a week in Utah. Saw family and dear friends and also got the chance to go to Women's Conference at BYU with a group of the greatest ladies! My dear friends from Flag! It was so much fun being back on my old stomping grounds -- Yes -- I went to BYU and am still forever a cougar! We stayed in the dorms, ate out, laughed our heads off, stayed up late, but more than anything, we totally FILLED with the greatest spirit, talks, music, inspiration, testimony, and strength! Thursday morning's opening session was so amazing! My dear friend Merrillee Webb got up and led thousands of women in the Marriott Center in the hymn" Now Let us Rejoice" The entire place was filled and as we all stood and sing together -- IT WAS POWERFUL! That hymn was one of the first of the Restoration and was written at a time of great tribulation for the Saints, and yet, Rejoicing is what they felt to do! It was inspring and such an amazing weekend! I truly loved every minute and was so grateful to my parents and wonderful hubby for being with our kids so that I could go! I feel like I hopefully have returned and better wife and mommy! It's a must for me from now on!!! And thanks again ladies for a great time! Love you!!!!

Good for you for going back to the Cougar campus. I'm glad that you had fun. I love your tiny baby bump (as they say in the gossip magazines)!
Utah, this spring, has been beyond gorgeous. I can't get enough of the trees in blossom and the green everywhere.
