Gila Valley Temple!!


I know this was a few weeks ago, but this is something worth blogging about. So on V-Day several church members in the Gila Valley area came together to take part in the ground breaking of the Gila Valley Temple!! It was such an amazing spiritual experience. Myself, and several others had the opportunity to be apart of a choir that sang at the ground breaking. It was so amazing to be in the presence of some general authorities, and to be seating on the grounds where the house of the Lord will be built!! I can't wait to see the process of the Temple being built!! I SO EXCITED!!!! I cant wait for day when I enter the Temple...I have the goose bumps just thinking about it!!


I got to turn some dirt!!



This is what the gorgeous temple is gonna look like :)




We froze, BUT IT WAS A BLAST!!

FREAKIN AWESOME CHOIR TOUR!!!





One of the best perks of being in choir, are the amazingly fun trips you get to go on!! Last week ACAPPELLA went to Utah, and it was the best experiences I have had in my life! Not only did I get to know some the coolest people, but I also had some really great spiritual experiences.

I love the snow with the temple...its so beautiful!!




So I'm werid, I hung with married people the whole time, but they were so much fun!


We had the coolest group ever...everyone wanted to be as cool as us!!








So one night we got bored and had alittle to much fun...I'm sure the hotel loved us

We ate alittle too much!

Yay for wrestling in the lobby at one in the morning





one word A-MAZING!! She brought me to tears as she sang
This girl was HILAROUS!!!


So on Sunday we were so blessed with the chance to watch MOTAB sing the "Music and the Spoken Word", and it was so amazing. However, I would have enjoyed it so much more if i wasnt dead tired, but for some reason I went to bed at three in the morning the night before. Anyway, after they finished, they asked us to come sing. HOW COOL IS THAT!!! We sang in the FREAKIN TABERNACLE!! It was one of the greatest experiences of my life!!!





WE GOT TO SING THERE!!


This tour was the funnest tour I have ever been on. I got to meet of the greatest people ever. Not only that, but I had some amazing personal experiences that I will never forget. Thanks to everyone who went on tour, it wouldnt' have been the same without you guys!! I LOVE CHOIR!!
