Getting to spend quality time with my older sister and little niece Skye all weekend, which I will admit was such a delight for me considering how nervous I felt about becoming an aunt for the 1st time ever. It was literally something that I can only hope will get better as the years go on and yet I have so many things to learn along the way. I am grateful for the memories that I was able to make this weekend more than anything else in the world, but having said that-- I can only hope for much more incredible times to come.
We also went to sacrament meeting at my older sister's ward & got to listen to talks about Mothers-- as well as their influences in our lives, but leading back to the Savior who is the closest example of who they are to us everyday. It was also such a joy to listen to the primary kids sing songs to their moms and how much they love them-- which was absolutely incredible (even though back here in Provo we had the same program going on.)
It was really fun and exciting to visit the well known popular must see attraction, The Mormon Battalion Museum right there in Old Town San Diego. We had a wonderful time getting to learn various things about those faithful pioneers who during a very tough time, were able to face their challenge of having to fight for what they believed in and yet if they stayed true to themselves-- it would be a very successful journey.
