On a personal note...

I hope its ok for me to get a little personal.. I wanted to share something I have learned. After 3 knee surgeries and countless days inside the house, I had the opportunity to travel to Salt Lake for a weekend and as I travelled I was overcome by the immense beauty our Father in Heaven has created for us. This is nothing new for me, I have always marvelled at his creations and have felt so humbled as I sit on the shore of a beautiful river looking up at a magnificant mountain range. What I have learned this winter is that no matter what circumstances you are in and what trials are upon you, all you have to do is open your eyes. I know I have learned this lesson many times but as someone who was very active all my life I only believed I could experience this sense of joy and euphoria by going full speed into it. I have been taught to slow down and truly experience life and all its beauty. I feel so blessed in all I have been given and I just want to express my deepest love and gratitude for my Savior this Easter Season. I hope each of you are enjoying the simple moments and have a very Happy Easter! We love and miss you all!
