Wow! The last month and a half has been extremly busy for me. I started school back in August and my day usually consists of going to the math lab at 830 to get ahead in math, then math class at 930, where i then return to do the homework assigned, i then go to my other classes with an hour break inbetween for lunch until 330. At 330, I go to work until 11, where I continue to be blessed working with the girls and helping them change their lives and become better people. It's really heart breaking to here some of the stories of what these girls have been through, but it is a very rewarding program. We recently had two girls graduate and it was hard to see them leave. They have made so much progress and I hope they can continue on the path they have set for themselves. Aside from the busy schedule, I continue to be the husband of a very very busy Relief Society President. The rare moments we do get to spend together, she is always busy visiting sisters, being on the phone talking to sisters, or doing something else.
Now, I'm not complaining, or saying that we never get very much time together, but the times are not as much as they used to be. This weekend has been fall break, and it has been a great vacation for me to let my brain get a rest. Kat and I took the break and took off to the Vernal Temple on our quest to visit every Utah temple. It was quite the drive and it was a wonderful temple! The Manti Temple has been closed for cleaning and as I was in the temple, I got the most peaceful feeling and realized that even though we didn't have a temple open that was 5 minutes away from us, it was worth the drive to the temple.
Speaking of worth the drive, We also got to have the oportunity to go to General Conferance. It was amazing! We had close seats and learned a lot! I am so thankful to have a living prophet who guides and directs us! Our breaks went out on the way there and when we went to fix it in Salt Lake, they wanted to charge us 400 bucks! Well, Kat and I decided to just drive it to Gunnison and take it to Reids where we knew they would not try and cheat us out. It ended up costing us a little over 100 bucks this time which was much better. But even though the trip ended up being a bit more pricey than what I wanted, it was well worth being able to be in the same room as the prophet and apostles and recieve instruction from them.
