So, I thought I lost the camera, so, I didn't want to do anything on the computer until I found it...that's explains the blogger sabbatical.
Want to know what
heaven
is going to be like?

Not this, necessarily:
This is Mt. Si in Washington, it's gorgeous, maybe visually capturing the essence of "heaven", but I think heaven is going to be like the experience we had last weekend.

Last Friday, the YM & YW had a Ward Youth Conference overnighter at a church owned ranch that was near the place pictured above. The highlight, the heavenly moment, was captured on film. In the kitchen, in the lodge:Seeing my son...scrubbing pots, smiling kind of, and other young men working together, in a kitchen:
Heaven. Boys are hard workers. They are so sweet, I would want to take them all home, but I know this would never happen in my own kitchen. They even served breakfast to the YW and adults.
That was pretty much the best moment ever for me that day.

Other highlights include very spiritual & fun learning experiences:
2 hour long ping-pong tournaments:and other character building activities that I didn't take pictures of.

Basically, heaven for me is a place where:
  • I sit around watching other people work hard and
  • if I could get my back scratched at the same time...
that would be heaven.

Wait, wait, wait. Do-over. That turned out lame.

Heaven for me is a place where:
  • I get to witness my kids and youth apply the gospel lessons they've learned by serving others
  • and some other stuff like, be with my husband and stuff
that's what I meant.
