CONFERENCE​CONFERENCE​CONFERENCE​CONFERENCE​CONFERENCE

i love general conference!!!!!!!!!!! sooooooo so good!!!!!!!!!! everybody is like "woah sister proffit calm down" and i'm like "nooooooo i love it!!!!!!!!!! LIVING PROPHETS AND APOSTLES WILL SPEAK THIS IS AN ENORMOUS DEAL plus i miss my family!!!!!!!!! no one does conference like the proffits!!!!!!" and then i laugh at my own pun and everyone else just rolls their eyes.

 

story of my week.

 

but anyways, it was sooooooooooo great!!!!!!!! i loved it!!!!!!!!!!! such a miracle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) :) 

 

where even to begin. 

 

well FIRST of all, everyone congratulate because i said a SPANISH PRAYER this week and i felt like hermana hirschi :) :) i said "nuestros padre celestial.... gracias por familia...... gracias por amigas... amigos?..... gracias por la comida......... por favor..... bless............ la comida......... en el nombre de Jesu Christo, amen." :) :) :) and i was so proud of myself!! hahaha :) :) thennnnnnnnn sister butler did the rest of the talking hahaha. :) :) but it was good. :)

 

also, wanna know something WEIRD??? sister butler and i met 6 years ago. at philmont. we realized this very late at night one night. because she was like "and my friend had a crush on this guy named jeremy carver..." and i was like "wait......... who?" and basically....... we figured it out and we met. and we did not like each other hahaha. SO SO SO SO WEIRD. yeah. WEIRDNESS. 

 

lately we have had washington weather and i have loved it :) :) :) fall is SO SO SO SO BEAUTIFUL HERE i can hardly stay on the road when i'm driving. dangerous? perhaps! 

 

also wanna know something dumb? (sister butler thinks i'm the weirdest person ever because i get like MAD when i'm happy about things hahaha like the stupid trees and the stupid clouds and the stupid beautiful sky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) okay s is reading the Book of Mormon like a CHAMP she is already more than halfway through mosiah and she just started 2nd nephi like......... last week. go her :) :) :) and the other morning she TEXTS us and she's like "you two are like parents.... ye will teach them to walk in the ways of truth and soberness; ye will teach them to love one another" no. stop. no. why would you text that to me??????????????? haha she is doing soooooooooo well!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) we just love her! 

 

also, speaking of the Book of Mormon, wanna know something cool?? :) :) k go to Alma 47. story of lehonti and them who are "fixed in the mind with a determined resolution" not to fight the nephites. and so i wonder to myself, why? why do they care so much? do they just not feel like it? enter the footnotes! check it -- the little a before the word "not" in v. 6. takes you to Alma 44:19. what is this? the story of some lamanites making a COVENANT that they never would take up arms against the nephites.

 

woah, woah, woah.

 

this changes the WHOLE story for me. now this is a story about keeping your covenants. and woooooooahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhlini that changes everything. read it again. mind blown. wowowowowow. i love the scriptures!!!!!!! they're always changing!!!!!!!!! they're always the same!!!!!!!!!!! (1 Ne. 16:29)

 

 

so anyways, THAT was cool......... hmm. what else. 

 

 

OH YES CONFERENCE.

 

so as i stated, i was extremely excited. s (and everyone...) makes fun of me because my hands go UP in the air when i get excited about things, which happens a lot on my mission because HELLO this is the perfect plan of HAPPINESS so what is there not to be excited about, nothing i tell you. nothing :) :) hahaha when they announced that we were going to sing press forward saints sister butler and i both went "yessssssss!!!" and threw up our hands in complete & total unison. #compunity. hahaha everyone was like "who are those weirdos" and sister butler was like "oh no i'm becoming sister proffit" hahaha it was joyful :) :) :) basically i was excited the whole time. also stephanie said that she liked the relief society broadcast and she got the chills when president monson spoke and she knows he's a prophet "but........ he has really lopsided ears" hahahahahahahaha changed my life. for the better. such a gem :) :) :)

 

oh yes, remember s? remember how she works third shift which means she goes into work at 9pm, works all night, and then sleeps during the day? did she come to conference? YES SHE DID. on saturday she texted us "there's one at 3 right?" and we're like s you're supposed to be sleeping but yes there is....... apparently she just WOKE UP and couldn't go back to sleep soooooooo she drove to the church to watch it with us because apparently Heavenly Father really wanted her to see it so He woke her up hahaha :) :) and then she goes into work that night, works all night, forgets that there isn't church at 9am sunday (i promise we told her!!! hahaha), drives to the church, realizes that there is no church, takes a nap in her car, watches the am session (we watched it at a members house so we didn't know this until later) takes another little nap, then watches the afternoon session. all without ever falling asleep. yes. she is a CHAMP and i love her :) :) :) and then she had her baptism interview and then she went to take a nap and then went to work!!! and tonight we are having fhe with our friends and i'm so excited! we're writing psalms :) :) :)

 

 

so basically.... i loved conference. i can't even begin to pick a favorite. it went by SO FAST!!!!!! not happy about that but that's okay :) 2/3 mission conferences done. and i still see pictures/videos of sister missionaries and i get all jealous and think "i want to be one!!" and then i realize that i AM and i am literally living the dream :) :) :) it's hard but it's good. it's hard to be everything that God expects of me. sometimes i just feel so down and hey satan is real, really real, even for missionaries........... but guess who already overcame him? JESUS CHRIST and He is my best friend so there :) :) :) i'm just trying to be a little bit better every day. and sister butler is helping me :) :) :) 

 

i love you, family!!!!! so grateful for God's plan that allows us to always BE a family :) :) i miss you so much, especially at conference time, but i'm so grateful to be following the prophet :) :) :) happiness, safety, & peace come when we do!! what a miracle :) :) :) 

 

 

love, love, love you -------
