I had a great week. It was my birthday. And like the cupcakes show, I am 24 now. One more year and I can rent cars and my car insurance will lower. :)
I'm always telling my family how bad Utah drivers are. I'm starting to learn why they are called Utards. I got out of dinner Wednesday, on my birthday, and I see this car sitting like this. But it wasn't parked like that, it had rolled out of it's original parking spot because the driver did not put on the brake. Park.... then brake dorks!
This is my best friend Deena. Her birthday is 4 days after mine and we both turned 24. Happy birthday to us.
On Friday I attended an activity given by my church. It is called the Manti Pageant. It is a play that the town of Manti puts on at the Manti temple. They act out the story of Joseph Smith who was a prophet. It was such a testimony builder. I am grateful for my belief. I love my church and I am grateful for Joseph Smith. He was a brilliant and caring man. He went through so much and never denied God's existence. He knew God lives and I know God lives.

When Joseph Smith was younger, he wasn't sure which church to join. And while reading the bible he came across the scripture James 1:5.
And it says:
"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him."
I bear testimony and witness to all, that God is there to answer your prayers and give you guidance. He loves each of us and is here to help us live a happy, righteous life so that we may one day live with him again. I know that God, our Eternal Father lives and I know that His son Jesus Christ lives and lived a life on this Earth, walked among men, performed miracles, died on the cross for our sins. He bridged the gap so that we may return to heaven. I know that Christ returned to Earth 3 days after His death and that He came to the America's, where we live today, and taught the people living at that time and promised them He would return again. I know that one day Christ will return and what a wonderful, amazing day that will be. I can only hope that I will be there to witness His return. I know that I am a daughter of God. I am grateful that I have been blessed with a wonderful family who taught me right from wrong and showed me the way to be happy. I cannot imagine how tragic life would be without having a Heavenly Father and without having a Savior who loves me and watches over me.
Here is the group Wayne and I went down to Manti with. Wayne and Dave are Star Trek dorks... I mean Star Trek Spocks.
And here is Wayne and I.
