More Beautiful You- Official Music Video

Shelby just got back from a workshop for young women the age 11-15 in our area.  They have focused on resisting peer pressure, hair, nails, inner beauty, making and keeping friends, resisitng drugs, drinking etc..., self-defense, and how to study.  Very timely as she starts school in a few weeks.  This song was one they used as they were discussing peer pressure and she shared it with me.  I wish all women thought of themselves and the beautiful Daughers of God that they truly are.  The times in my life I have struggled the most are when I forget that or lose sight of truly who I am.    Hope you enjoy as much as I have.  Kappy oh the song is by Johnny Diaz

Shelby and Rachel having thier digging turn.  They invited all t he children up
Our family had the wonderful opportunity to attend the ground breaking for the new temple here in Brigham City.  The anticipation and excitement in our little town has been so fun.  My children and I ran around the site Friday night and then early Saturday morning we went and attended the event.  We were able to obtain tickets and we feel very blessed to go with my parents and sit very close to the front.  Our Rachel has been dancing around the house singing I love to see the temple and saying "We are getting our temple".
