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!!

Christmas was soooo much fun!! As usual on Christmas Eve we have a traditional Riding Fam party. Which was not the typical one with Grandpa bein in a care center, but it was still fun. We watched a nativity they we had done like ten years ago...can we say EMBARRASSING!!! But the best part about Christmas Eve was my sister Tiff surprising us by coming to town early. I only wish you could see the look on my mommy's face...priceless!! On Christmas, after we opened our gifts we watched the Walt Disney World Christmas Parade...which is LIVE!!! (jk)
Our Beautiful Christmas tree...which I might add is mostly Disney :)

Hey baby!!

My break was so much fun, and I miss my friends sooooo much!! But looking on the bright side I'm looking forward to a fun and adventurous semester!!!

Disneyland!

So my sister and I decided to take a quick trip to Disneyland about 2 weeks ago. Luckily with Wendi working for Disney, the only thing we had to pay for was the hotel and gas. I think it cost about $50 per person, which is prolly the cheapest its ever been for us to go. Disney is seriously one of my favorite places in the world!!

Ya know suprisingly we didnt get wet. We soon discovered that the water was down low due to the fact that IT WAS FREEZING!!!

It was great, my good friend Emilie Gibson and her mom both work for Disney. It was so great seeing them again. I MISS YOU GUYS!!

I love ya Emy G!!

That trip was so much fun. It was great being able to have the whole park to our self because of the rain. So what if we froze our butts off, we walked on almost every single ride!! I love havin sisters who work for disney....I LOVE FREE STUFF!!!

End of the Semester Fun!!!

OH MY HECK THE SEMSTER IS OVER!!!! It flew by sooooo fast!!! But we went out with a bang!!

I'm gonna miss her!!!

Haha dont you just love Lacey's pj's!

So those pics were from our Christmas show...Festival of Carols. It was so much fun because for Company we got to wear our pj's as we performed "The Night Before Christmas". It was alot of fun, but I'm so glad to be getting new music to work with! We also had our 72nd Annual Messiah, oh my heck it was so much fun but scary at the same time. I had a solo and i was scared TO DEATH!!

BUFF MAMAS!!

I can never take a normal pic!!

So with the end of the semester comes the end of the semster STRESS RELIEVER!!! The Friday before finals EAC had jumpy toys and slides and such for several hours so that we could relax before finals. Man it was a blast, even I almost died a few times. Not gonna lie but I really liked punching people.
