As sisters in Zion....
Today I had a most amazing lunch with the most amazing women... I have been SO lucky .... wait... BLESSED is a better word... to count these beautiful ladies as my dearest friends/sisters. We had a little reunion (thank you SO much Chris.. for opening your beautiful home and providing the scrumptious lunch!)... lots of us have known each other well over 20 years... We were in the same ward when we were VERY young and raised kids together, had babies, (then grandbabies) served in callings, presidencies and committees together, went on school field trips, concerts, sports events. So many carpools, so many kids doing fun stuff! We did lunches, shopping, crafts, scrapbooking... and the list goes on!There were ALWAYS some of us in the grocery store on Saturday night! We served each other through happy good times, sad times and trials. .... errand of angels definitely describes these ladies!

About Me

- Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!

I feel sad, I wasn't included, but then we were sent from one Zion to another. Pioneers, we were!!! Then the second wave of Zionites were sent to us, some of us were reunited again, but I still remember the good times, just as you described it. We all had so many little ones and the same joys and trials. Memories.... It it great to see a picture of everyone together again. Everyone looks so young!!!! Yeah, I'm teasing.
