Day 80

Today was Shabbat. I meant to wake up this morning to go to the Garden of Gethsemane, but unfortunately my alarm clock ran out of batteries sometime during the night. It was still a nice morning, I went to breakfast and then choir practice before Church. We sang Come Along, Come Along and it was really fun- it's the first time I've sang in Sacrament meeting with the choir.

After Church me and Natalie visit taught and took hallah bread to our girls. It was a big hit. Everyone loves them some hallah bread. Then we had a relief society enrichment activity about journaling. It got me really excited about keeping a better journal and doing a personal history. I have loved blogging over the summer, but I don't know if I'll keep it up when I get home. I definitely want to start keeping a more day-to-day journal of the normal every-day things that go on in my life, even if it's just a short paragraph or something.

This afternoon I spent a lot of time reading my scriptures and writing in my journal. After dinner we watched another segment of the Messiah movie, a series that Brother Brown produced that goes over different aspects of the Savior's life. This section was on the Sermon on the Mount and some of the other things that took place in Galilee, and it was fun to see each place and go, oh, I've been there. I talked to my family and that was awesome too. I miss everyone so much and I can't wait to see you all next month!
