#7- Go to a General Conference

In my fall semester of 2009 I had the opportunity to attend a General Conference and not just one session but TWO of them. The first one was on Saturday October 3, 2009. Cody and I arrived and had pretty good seats. We were on the second or third row on the second level all the way to the left. I just couldn’t believe how huge it was! WOW! It was so neat to be in the presence of so many apostles and be able to sustain them. My favorite talk was by Neil A. Anderson http://lds.org/conference/talk/display/0,5232,23-1-1117-14,00.html

After conference Cody and I walked around Temple Square and took a lot of pictures. On Sunday we were able to go to the morning session. That means we were there for Music and the Spoken Word. It was so amazing and we had such good seats!!! The acoustics were perfect where we were sitting. They sang two of my favorite songs. My Shepherd Will Supply My Need and Come Thou Fount. Conference was amazing even though we were tired. I am so thankful I had the opportunity to go and think that everyone should go if they get the chance!
