Conference Weekend

No pics on this post just a run down of our exciting weekend. 
1. Watched the Saturday morning session of Conference in which President Monson announced a temple to be built in Cedar City!  Gasps of joy were heard in the audience.  He also spoke of the temple dedication in Tegucigalpa, Honduras.  Then went over the numbers of missionaries serving through out the world. 
65,000 now serving, 20,000 with calls waiting to go, and 6,000 awaiting calls.  AMAZING!!!!!!
Jordan is part of the 65,000, K'loni is in the 20,000 category, and Mom and Dad in the 6,000 group.  It is just THE MOST WONDERFUL THING!!!!!!
2.  After all that good news Mark and I hopped in the truck and drove to St. George to buy a car.  Yes, I said BUY A CAR.  And we brought one home.  A BRAND new Ford Escape.  It is sooooo fun to have a NEW car.  We have had ONE new car in our lifetime.  And that was 17 years ago.  I've been driving a 1996 jeep for the past four years so yes, I am a bit elated about this new development.  We have been for 2 Sunday afternoon rides this afternoon.  Whitney drove after Conference and we watched the odometer turn to 100 miles! 
3.  This morning the missionaries serving in our Stake came over for eggs golden rod and watched Conference with us.  They are nice boys and I love having them around. 
4.  We got to listen to messages from our Prophet and other General Authorities.  There were so many great talks.  I am growing to love Conference as I age.  :)
