Time out for Women

We started a new tradition this year of going to Time out for Women in Salt Lake. After a really bad break up it was just what I needed. I loved every bit of it. We listened to some really great speakers who brought in the spirit. I got to listen to one of my favorite speakers, Stephanie Nelson, who was amazing. She has had such a hard life, but still remains strong and faithful! She is such a great example, and has influenced so many peoples lives. I also got to be with three of my favorite people. We laughed until we literally cried. Time out for Women is something I can look forward to each year.
Saturday session before it started
Yes I am related even though I don't look like the three sisters

Gege and I on the TRAX
We rode the TRAX both days. Each day when they would announce the next stop Gege would do this. It was hilarious. We laughed about it all weekend.
Highlights
  • Christ has the ability to change anything.
  • God is not content to be a part of the audience. He wants to be the composer.
  • Our motivation to stay on the path comes not when we look at the path, but at the goal.
  • The Gospel of Jesus Christ challenges us to become something.
  • We tend to pay more attention to the outside then on the inside.
  • The harder you try the worse it gets so try harder.
  • We become who we want to be by consistently becoming who we want to be.
  • It's up to us to make the decision to by happy.
  • We have all the tools to overcome our trials.
  • Choose to become me... ME is good enough
  • We don't get to judge others because we don't have the whole picture.
  • Don't you dare be the one thing that stands in your way.
  • Never loose site in the things you are supposed to do.
  • Face your doubts, stay on the course, and see the beauty that is waiting for you.
  • Choose to be the women God intended you to be.
I am so grateful for the opportunity I had to go to Time out for Women. I am so blessed to have the gospel. I am grateful for the opportunity I have to learn about the Gospel, and to strive to be better each and every day!!
