This blog was poorly abandoned due to the
following
consecutive fun-filled-out-of-our-small-town trips.
So here it goes…
One. EMPACT at Des Moines
We are so blessed to be given the chance to attend this 2-day
lecture on different topics. My favorite of all was “Straight Talk to
Women: Fireplaces and Cheating on Your
Husband” by Sister Nancy Bolinger. You can read her notes here.
That aside, I also documented some neat 10-minute hairdo how-to’s
demonstrated
by some lovely saints in between lectures.
The videos was then compiled into a DVD by
the amazing hubby
and copies were sold at the Ladies Conference
as a fundraiser
for Mother's Memorial.
to take
a picture of Iowa’s state capitol
and its golden dome as the background.

Two. CHICAGO, take 2!
Revisiting the windy city was equally amusing
but not as
tiring as the previous.

Three. Ladies Conference
Like last year, this means a day of shopping and food.
Sadly,
I don’t have pictures of such because
my camera weighs as much as I do so I pretty
much left it in the car.
Anyways, the conference went wonderfully
with such a witty
speaker, Sister Cindy Miller.
The message
that hit me was to “let God be God.”
I do not always understand certain occurrences
in my life,
rest assured, His ways are always higher than mine.
Then.. as one of the official photographers,
I was deprived from being in the pictures except this one.
Lastly, I received this delightful message
from Sister George, IA Ladies' President.
Truly blessed to be able to help.
