How Blessed We Are....

Family! So I'm sure that most of you already knew that we had the opportunity to have President Monson come speak at BYU on Sunday for a CES fireside for young single adults I believe. My roommates and I went at 2 pm to wait in line outside in the cold for the fireside that started at 6! We had our blanket, our Ensigns, and our scriptures along with all those other people waiting to have a wonderful time with for those four hours! :) Well we got seats about the 8th row up (not counting the floor seats) and we saved 17 seats for all our friends! It was amazing of course, and one of the best experiences in my life.

Well in addition to that, today we had Elder Holland come speak to us for our regular BYU Tuesday devotionals, and I think that this was the best talk I have ever heard in my life. I didn't get there early enough for good seats, (we had to finish our orange-glazed blueberry scones first...delicious!) But although we were far away, the spirit was so strong and the message was amazing.

So I think I found links to both of these talks so that you can all watch them to hear the exact messages they shared! I love you all and wish you could have been with me for these exciting events. How blessed we are to hear from our Lord's prophet on such a regular basis!!!

Enjoy,

Eliza

(for this one, you might need to download something if you've never watched BYU TV before, and then just make sure the date is the 13th and the time is 11 am. It doesn't start the devotional til about 6 or 7 minutes in. Enjoy! :D)

thanks, liz! I forgot about that fun part of college. We got to see/hear pres. Hinckley ~8th row - so neat! I'm excited to read the talks.
What a wonderful opportunity to be "educated" in spirit as well as in mind. I am excited to get to see you this weekend for Nicole's big event. Drive safely and I love you.
