Day 06 - Favorite super hero and why / Time Out For Women

i am not a big super hero fan. not sure why. they have never been things that really fasinate me. but i do have one i would choose as a favorite:

Elastigirl

she would be a cool mom or be a cool mom to be, plus that is one sexy A outfit =)

This last weekend the girls in our family took the wonderful oppurtunity to go to Time Out for Women. it is a weekend (Friday evening and most of Saturday) full of uplifting and inspirational speakers and music. put on by Deseret Book and they have stops all over the country throughout the year.

this years them was Choose to Become - "All things are possible to him that believeth" Mark 9:23

Our line up was this:

Friday Night:

Virgina H. Pearce (President Hinckley's daughter)

Jason F Wright

Music by Macey Robison

Saturday Night:

Dean Hughes

DeAnne Flynn

John Hilton III

Mathew Baldwin

Kris Belcher

Music by Jericho Road

It's so hard to pick a favorite, they were all good and most of them where pretty funny. i was very very humbled by Kris Belcher but i loved DeAnne Flynn's personality. she is someone i would want to be. and i loved Jason Wrights humor. it was all so good. check this out to see about the presenters. also go here to learn more about TOFW and to check out the 2010 schedule.

Here are some pics. the ones in the middle are from my phone and are not the best.

sunday

this weekend was General Conference weekend. I love it! I love my church! I just downloaded all my podcasts of this weekends talks and I am excited to go listen to those I didn't hear or re-listen to those I did. our leaders are the greatest men ever. I love to watch President Monson tell a joke. he laughs along with everyone and then gets a straight face so quickly...it is hilarious. I love to hear everything President Uchtdorf says...he is the one person that I take his words like a sponge. and I love to hear the depth and knowledge that comes with President Eyring. these men are amazing. President Uchtdorf gave a talk on trying to not take on so much in life. make life simpler and not fill your days full with things to do...enjoy the beauty of life and take time to ponder things. lately I have been feeling so overwhelmed. there is so much I want to do. these is one of those things i needed to hear. my goal is to try not to do so much...I can't wear myself out at such a young age! click here: General Conference to hear that talk (saturday morning session) or to hear many more or go download them on your ipod..the podcast is free!!
