Jenny Phillips Choir

About a Year and a Half ago, I sang in Jenny Phillip's choir, which I'm sure most of you remember. Due to work getting in the way and a few other things, I had to quit. Just recently, I was listening to some of Her music and realized how much I missed performing as well as feeling the spirit SO strong at Her firesides. Right then and there, I emailed her assistant and she informed me that they were holding auditions for it. Well, today I auditioned, and I will be singing in her choir again!!! I am just so thrilled!! I know this will fill that void I've been having lately. It is the most amazing feeling to perform and share the Gospel with others!! I just know this is what I'm supposed to be doing!! So, I'm inviting you all at one point, to come to a fireside and see what I'm talking about!! Such an amazing experience!! That is why in addition, I am so excited for Women's Conference! Like I said, I get to do what I LOVE doing while sharing my testimony!!

PLUMB


So, I was working today, and had to switch over and speak with another department. During my wait, I was listening to music and a song came on. It sounded familiar, so I quickly wrote down some of the words to look on who sang it. Come to find out, the name of the Group is called Plumb. Never heard them before, but as I started listening to her music, I instantly fell in love with it! Her lyrics are so beautiful as well as her voice. I put a few songs of hers on my playlist. Hopefully you'll like her as much as I do!!

A Great Opportunity

I was chosen out of 10 people in my ward to be in the choir for Women's Conference. Being a part of the choir is going to be such an amazing experience! Our first practice was tonight. The spirit while singing was so strong! I can't even imagine what it's going to be like in the Conference Center! I am so blessed to have this great opportunity to do what I love doing as well as sharing my testimony!

A Future For Tomorrow


I just finished an Amazing book called "A Future For Tomorrow." It's a true story about my Cousins Megan and Marci's Cousin Haley, who suffered with Anorexia as a teenager, how deathly ill she became, but how she overcame her illness through help from her Family, Friends, and especially our Father in Heaven. I was so empowered with the spirit while reading it. Luckily, I never had to deal with an eating disorder growing up, but being a Girl, I constantly battled with my self worth and always worried about my weight and what I looked like. So, the way she felt about herself, really connected with some of my feelings I've had in my life. I am so touched by her strength and faith she had in overcoming her sickness. What an inspiration she is to me! Thank You Haley for writing this Book. It definitely will help so many people out there!

Sprinklers!!

After a week of lots of work, we FINALLY have sprinklers in our yard!!! A Big Thank You to my wonderful Hubby as well as all who helped in getting them in!! I am just so excited to not have to worry about keeping our lawn green with one lousy sprinkler, which really never did much! It'll be so nice to get our Yard the way we've wanted it to look! Now, we just have to put seed on our yard and wait for the grass to grow and be green again!! Oh, the joys of home ownership :)
