Karissa's Field Trip- Living Desert

Tyler, Trevor and I went with Karissa's school to Living Desert. It's a great zoo out in Palm Desert. Luckily the weather was not too hot. We had a good time together. Some of the highlights were the animal show and the butterfly pavillion.

The Day we met an Apostle

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the quorum of the twelve came for our Stake Conference last weekend. He spoke to the priesthood leadership last night, then at the adult session, and again Sunday. We loved hearing from him and feel so blessed that he was here. He stayed after the meeting to shake hands and meet the members. We waited in line to shake his hand. Karissa said, "We had to wait in line a long time but it was worth it." I agree! The Spirit was so strong and we are so blessed to be members of a church led by prophets and apostles!
