"You would have thought..."

"You would have thought it was the second coming!" (our Relief Society President said it the best)



David Archuleta was in town for a Jerry Lewis telethon at the Southpoint (which is just up the street from us) so our lucky ward were graced by his presence...it would have been awesome if he sang for us but with it being fast and testimony meeting that would have been really odd though...

Honestly I want to say "whoopdidoo" but I might get stoned. LOL! I think he is a talented kid and if I was a young woman between the ages of 12-19 I probably would have been giddy too.
But it was more entertaining to watch the reactions of others...

I will be honest I had no idea he was there until the end of church. I was subbing the CTR4 and 5 classes and I had opened the door at the end of the last hour to let the parents of the CTR4 class know where there kids were (because they were not in their usual class) when David walks around the corner with his dad to leave... now I thought to myself that is David Archuletta in my head but I was not going to draw attention to him by saying Hi, ( I just smiled at him) when this cute lady in our ward whom I help out taking to the store and what not was sitting across the hall in one of the armed chairs...when she caught glimpse of him she about had a heart attack right there...she actually handled it quite well but she says "is that "MY" David Archuleta" he then gave that smile he gave on American Idol when all the girls were oogling over him (or the judges) whichever...and shook her hand...Mary (the older lady) turned to me after he left and said..."Ruthy, did you just see that? David Archuleta just shook my hand" you would have thought she struck gold...okay in her life...that was as close to gold as she was going to get...but it was priceless to say the least...I think tomorrow when I take her to the bank and store that is all I am going to be hearing about....LOL!

Well David, so sorry you had everyone "oogling" over you at our ward today (including the Bishop) really we do think you are a normal "joe shmo" but it isn't everyday you have a celebrity walk into your church for the full block of meetings...

Gods Hands

God's Hand I haven't blogged in a while. I guess it's time to show some gratitude. I have come to realize in the last year or so how often we take for granted how incredibly involved our Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ are in our everyday life. Just because we can't not see them physically, I find that we often forget how much they really do have their hands extended and are continually guiding us.        Of course I do believe that life is all about choices. The good, the bad, the ugly, or rather determining what is good, better and best. What we choose can shape a lot of who we are and who we have the capability of becoming. We have agency. He let's us choose. But as we follow His guidance through the Spirit I definitely think He knows where He needs us better than we do. He also knows how it will benefit us and others around us the most. I believe in being in the right place at the right time.       Most of you are aware tha...

Merry Christmas 2018! I deeply apologize for the 2nd year in a row not sending out Christmas cards/letters. I just haven't had the extra time or patience to do so. I haven't been on my blog in forever and almost forgot how to post anything. I hope you all enjoy. The past couple years have brought some trials as is life. But through it all we have continually be blessed and the outpouring of love and support from those around us have made burdens lighter. We are most grateful for our Savior and His divine hand in our lives and that is really all we can ask for. A short blurb for each of us. Nathan's business is expanding which brings more travel and more stress. But blessings all the same. He hiked the JMT trail this summer/fall for his birthday that was in May. He spent two weeks with bare minimums to survive the Yosemite mountains. It was quite the accomplishment I must say. He also co-runs a flying club that people rent planes and learn ho...

CONTEST!

I sat thinking today (dangerous I know)  and decided to change things up on my blog today...who doesn't like a CONTEST! Yup...now don't get too excited. You won't be winning millions of dollars or anything like that. Now I have friends ALL over the country and out of the country for that matter. SO if someone outside of Vegas or Utah wins this ridiculously silly contest, then I will figure out something I can mail to you. If you are local or in Utah I will make you something amazing. My amazing chocolate cupcakes, or fresh baked bread, or maybe even invite you to our home for dinner (if you are local). But as I was pondering my lack of energy today. It has taken me years...I mean years to find the secret trick to getting my energy back and back quickly. Most people I know rely on I also know several people who rely on Energy drinks/Boosters I even know a few who rely on  to get them through the day do to lack of energy as well as pain. Well for me any ...
