Youth Conference

This weekend i had the opportunity to go up to Thatcher to go visit the Gila Valley Temple and spend time with the youth in my ward. The Drive up there was super long. PS i dislike car rides. i always have to be moving. it causes a problem during trips with my family. But anyways! The drive up there was three and a half hours and there wasn't a TV or anything! The music wasn't turned up that loud either so it was basically a quiet drive. still really fun though. We all had our moments.

So here are the people i drove up with (minus Corbin) Trent and i made our own fort so our leader didn't know we had our phones and I pods. we were rebels i know. but yeah we played games most of the times and then told stories and played word games. overall it was a fun drive.

But the best part was the Temple. it was really small compared to the one we have here in Mesa. It was super cute though. Scratch that it was Beautiful! I loved every second of it.

The rooms inside were so so so pretty. words can't describe how i felt in there. In one of the rooms they had this HUGE chandelier. A lady inside said it had about eight thousand crystals hanging on there. My eyes were drawn to it when i walked in. If you haven't had the chance to go there, i highly recommend it. After we left the Temple we went to the church building right next to it and had a testimony meeting. The youth in my ward had strong testimony's and it really made mine way stronger than it already was. The are such good examples to me and i love them lots.

After we were done with that (it was about two hours) we drove to our hotel. I thought it was going to be a gross hotel but it was really really nice. We got there close to midnight and went up to our rooms. i stayed with Ashley Lake and Summer Allen i love them, they are so funny! Everyone went out into the halls and went insane until we all got in trouble because we woke up some persons kids. That was bad. So we all went to our rooms and started going to sleep. The next morning we got up and had breakfast and headed to the garage sale we set up. it was a success we made 1300 dollars for the Women's Shelter. It was a great experience and it made me realize how much i actually have in my life
