YSA Confrence 2009

This last weekend was a ton of FUN!!! There was a YSA (young single adults) conference in Boise. Basically it's an event where young singles from ages 18-30 (or so) and from Ontario, Or to Mtn Home, ID get together and go to a bunch of activities over the whole weekend. Thurs night was temple night so we did baptisms and endowment sessions. Fri night was a BBQ and they had tons of food, a rock climbing wall, mechanical bull and a couple volleyball games, ultimate Frisbee and eventually a dance. Sat morning starting at 9am we went and listened to Elder Nattress and Elder Walker give talks (which were GREAT) and then attended classes all day. The classes ranged from investing, to dating, to cooking, to the gift of the atonement. They feed us lunch and then pizza afterwards and then Sat. night we all went to the West Boise YMCA. On Sunday former President Hillam of the Boise Temple and Sister Hillam spoke to all of us at a special fireside. What an amazing weekend and man did I learn so much! I am just so happy that I have been brought back to the church...thank you Justin and Marisa. I truly am so blessed to have you 2 and everyone in the branch to help me along! Having the gospel in my life has made me a happier person and I am better because of it!

Below are some pictures from Friday night. Unfortunately I did not get pictures the rest of the time.

I Never!!!

A group of us decided that we wanted to do something last night, the only thing we knew for sure was we were going to go to dinner. We ended up going to Red Robin and had tons of fun just telling stories and trying to decide what to do for the rest of the evening. Also we had this great waiter who did an excellent job for us...I don't think any of had to wait for drink refills! It was AWESOME!

So last night was the night of I never for Heidi!

This is the group: (Right to Left) Brandon Walker, Bryce Cornwell, Mason Peterson, Dani Gardner, Me, & Landon Larsen.

The above picture is of Dani, we asked Landon to take a picture of the 2 of us and then he just started pushing the button and taking random picutres...so in turn Dani and I got the giggles hard core...she was basically crying and my stomach hurt so bad from laughing so hard!

The picture below is of Landon...he was making this face as I was trying to tell him a story, so I just had to take his picture.

Dani and I gave up on Landon and we finally got Mason to take our picture...this was the best we got below!
