Birthday & General Conference

I love when my birthday is on General Conference.  We used to have a cabin in Heber and every conference weekend the whole family would go to the cabin, watch conference, walk around the lake amidst yellow quaking aspens, and have delicious lunches and dinners around the conference schedule.  It wasn't too uncommon to have my birthday fall on such a wonderful weekend so the combination is always my favorite.  After a busy day of going to the beach and hiking, conference was wonderful.  We got to relax and listen to the words of living prophets.  What an amazing gift it is to have the Gospel of Jesus Christ in my life.  It has been a happy, peaceful, birthday weekend to say the very least.

Thanks for all of the birthday wishes through text, phone calls, facebook, and cards. We are also grateful to Tyler and Whitney Whiting who had us over for dinner twice this weekend.  It is nice to have 'new'ish friends (JD & Tyler served in India at the same time and know each other) here in Oregon.
