Testimony

Hi again. Today was Fast and Testimony meeting for our ward, because General Conference is next week. I didn't get up and bear my testimony, :(
I know, I should. Anyway, I was thinking that Rob really hasn't 'heard' me bear my testimony before, and the General Authorities are always telling us that your testimony gets stronger the more you bear it. So, I thought I should write my testimony and share it with my family and those I love... Here I go...

The things I know to be true:
I know Heavenly Father loves me and you and all His children.
I know He watches out for us, and protects us.
I know He sent His Son to live and to die for us.
I know that through the Atonement of Christ we can all be saved and return to live with Christ and our Heavenly Father again.
I know that after a time of darkness, Heavenly Father sent His gospel back to the earth, and that Joseph Smith was the one chosen to start the work.
I know that I was sent to the best family in the world.
I know that families are forever when sealed in the temple of our Lord and that we will live with each other forever
I know that all of this is a gift given to us by our Father in Heaven
I know that the book of Mormon was given to us as a map to show us where to go and how to get there.
I am so very grateful for all my blessings, and for all of you who read this. All of you mean so much to me. Thank you for your love.

Good News

Hi again. I was given some excellent news yesterday that I want to share with everyone. I went to the new english advisor that USU has. The purpose behind this was to plan out my remaining year at school. I wanted to know what classes I had to take in order to graduate in the spring. Now, I must confess something. I had been convincing myself that it was going to be an uphill battle to have enough credits in time. I thought that I had a good 18 credits or more to have to take each semseter. Well (now to the good news) I was wrong. I talked to the advisor and she informed me that all I had left was 12 credits and that I was going to graduate THIS December! I couldn't believe it. I was SOOOOO excited yesterday! Rob and I celebrated with Cafe Rio and a movie. It was great! I can't believe that I am actually going to graduate from college. I just wanted to share the good news! WAHOO!!!!
