this past weekend made me SO HAPPY! I did so many great things that seriously just made me smile all weekend long. First of all it was a great weekend cause of conference. i love conference! An odd thing about BYU is that I swear every conference weekend professors give tons of work to do. Its like really? You know like ever single student is going to be watching tons of television and wont have time for homework. So....I was especially excited for conference when I realized I didnt have homework to worry about or lessons to plan like last time. it was so great to be stress free. But here is a little recap of my great weekend:
Friday/ Saturday.
Headed up to Ogden canyon to go to a friends cabin to enjoy watching conference. Our Friday night included eating some gross pizza, playing catch phrase and making the trek in the snow out to the hot tub. No joke there was like 3 feet of snow that we had to walk in it to get out to the hot tub. And it was also snowing whilst in the hot tub. WHAT? its suppose to be spring. Apparently Utah didnt get the memo. Saturday morning we were woken up to the sweet smell of pancakes, so got to enjoy that while watching conference. Watched the first two sessions and then headed down to the SLC to meet up with my DC friends!!!
Saturday Night.
Naomi, Melanie and Mindy aka the El Eds were all in town for conference/ Easter. We havent seen them since we had to say our goodbyes in DC. Needless to say i was so excited to see them! But before I get to my reunion...As I was driving down to Salt Lake, and as I came around the bend I admired the Utah Capitol building and it immediately made me almost cry as i missed DC. Then I called Chanel and she informed me she was at the capitol about to get a tour! Im sure "Shut Up" was my response. Followed by "wait for me! im coming!" So we got a little mini tour of the capitol and i loved it. Then off to dinner with the DC crowd. It was so great to see them and catch up on each others lives. Of course there was loud laughter involved at this reunion. We did greatly miss Jessica and Jamie. We needed more Second Eds there. No joke, as we were walking out of the restaurant--like 5 hours later-- I couldn't stop saying how happy I was nor stop smiling! Then off to Sandy to spend the night at Ms. Dixon's! Where we danced a little bit too much haha. 



Sunday.
It was great to spend the night in Sandy so that I could easily get back up to SLC to go to conference. I only had a mild nervous breakdown as I was driving up there because I thought I lost my ticket! Luckily I prayed hard and got blessed for going to conference because I found it once I arrived. Sunday AM session was so great it was so great to see and hear from the Prophet. Of course, we had to meet at the flag pole afterwards to take lots of pictures with our friends...I spent Easter at Cortney's house and it was so good. Highlight: the annual bunny cake of course.
