President Hinckley

I was sad to hear that President Hinckley had passed away, at first it didn't seem real even though he was 97 it seemed like he would live forever. It's sad but also happy because you know he is with his wife now. I watched an hour special last night about his life and the things he has done since he was called he was truly remarkable. It goes to show that the Lord knows what he is doing because President Hinckley was definantly a prophet for this day he traveled the world, built temples, and always spoke so openely about the church to people outside of it. They said last night that he has dedicated 72 temples, that is amazing. I will miss hearing him speak in conference, even though he was speaking to millions of members I felt like it was just for me. He also had a great sense of humor!

Much needed update

I am trying to make my blog cute there is a lot of fun stuff you can do, I discovered http://www.pyzam.com/ from Mauri's blog and so I spent all my time playing on there instead of updating. We had a great Christmas! It was a lot of traveling but that is a great way to spend that time of year. We are glad to just be home on the weekends, I have a lot of "New Year" projects for us to do (Dean is not so excited about that). I seem to have misplaced my camera cord so hopefully I will find that and can post some pictures for us to remember. Drew was really fun this year he got excited about every present, and thought each one was some kind of car.
