Keeping our religion with us at all times/Labor Day weekend

I was at a fireside today and Elder Holland was talking about how we NEVER check our religion at the door.  We need to realize and we are an example to everyone that is around us.  Another that was said that even in times of anger we need to keep our cool and know that even in anger we represent our Savior and all that he stands for.

Through these last couple of weeks I have been learning what it means to understand each other.  At times because of one little thing, everything comes out unexpectedly.  You can pick your friends but you are born into you family but the only thing that actually makes the people friends or family is trust. I have learned that even though you may think that you are speaking to someone in confidence, they will never just keep it between you two.

There are people who come into our lives and we start to trust them and to find that we can confide in them but because of one little thing where that one person starts to think that you are a liar and it just blows up  bigger than was needed.  These last couple of weeks I have been able to see who I can really trust and who I want to stay in my life.  I have apologized and now it is time to move on.  

Labor Day weekend!!

For Labor Day I was able to go to Everett, Washington and visit one of my brothers.  I had many firsts this week.  I went on a Ferry for the first time, was on a Island, and I was able to go on the Space Needle in Seattle.

 On the Ferry with my cute nephew, Charlies. He was scared from the wind and noise. 

Message on the beach. 

I love my family and especially the love that I feel being able to get to know Charles.  I hope to be a big part of his life when he is older.
