Amazing!!

I got a calling issued to me yesterday. I was asked to be the first counselor in the new relief society presidency. Can you believe it?! The woman who is the relief society president has just moved here about 3 weeks ago and didn't know anyone. What an amazing honor that she chose me out of all the young ladies in my branch. If that wasn't a big enough compliment the fact the the President and more importantly the Lord sees me as worthy and capable to be able to serve the woman in such an amazing capacity. Tears come to my eyes every time that I think of it. What an electrifying blessing to know that the Lord sees me fit to be an example to the sisters in my branch. I feel overwhelmed with gratitude and so humbled by the position that I am now playing in the branch. Thank you Heavenly Father for having confidence in me! I pray for strength and for the spirit to be close by so that I maybe able to help these woman find themselves in thee before making the huge decisions that we face in a singles branch. Thank You!!

Baptisms for the Dead!

Hannah Haupt and I

Last night I got to go with my branch to do baptisms for the dead for the first time since I was in young women's, and I actually didn't remember doing so before. It was incredibly. The spirit was so strong! I loved it and can't wait tell I get another chance to go. :)
In this picture I am wearing Grandma Bucks dress and jewelry. Lately I have been really missing my 'gma b' who passed away in May. I love you grandma!

My First Stilettos

Aren't my new shoes sooooo cute! Yeah that is what I thought until I wore them for the first time. I did end up tracking all evening after wearing them to church. My poor baby toe is bruised under the bed of my nail. Awful! I wish hadn't worn these shoes all day, now I'm afraid to wear them again. Yet they are so stinking cute!I even went up to bear my testimony and for like the first time ever they didn't have to lower the pulpit. Ohh the pain we woman go through to look good!
