We had such a fabulous weekend up in Salt Lake/Orem area this weekend. For those of you who don't know, I'm coaching a club volleyball team here in St. George. They are 14 years old, and the cutest girls. We sure have fun, but I'm also a little competetive which is hard for 14 year olds to comprehend. Anyway, practices are sometimes not fun for the girls because we are working hard on fundamentals, which is important for improving. They are improving a ton, well at least the ones that listen and apply themselves. We ended up taking first in our tournament over the weekend, and the first two tournaments we took 41st, and 43rd. Talk about a huge improvement. These girls know now how fun it is to win now, which makes me excited, because I think they will try harder now. But I do need some good volleyball drills for this age level if anyone has any suggestions!!!
The next amazing part of our weekend was that we got tickets spur of the moment to.....
The sunday morning session. That was a fun session because right before is Music and the Spoken Word that they record, which totally helped the spirit to flow in that ginormous building. I enjoyed and got more out of conference than I ever did before. Just feeling the General Authorities presence and hearing their inspiring words made me cry so much.
Isn't he amazing? He has a story to tell about any and every detail in the world. He is living his message, and it makes me want to too! The greatest thing that I got out of it was that I need to find Joy and happiness in my life no matter how hard my circumstances. The atonement and the gospel provide the way to having that joy NOW! not just in the eternities. I love this church!
