I have no words to explain how much I will miss President Hinckley!! He has been the only prophet I really remember. His words and inspirations strengthened me in many ways. I remember him giving the fireside on the famous "B"s. I thought it was really cool but figured other prophets had done something similar in other times. I was wrong. This made me realize how much this prophet cared about the youth and wanted them to succeed in life and not be taken down in temptation. I will always have a special place in my heart for him. I am grateful for the influence he has had on me and the whole world. I will miss him but know he missed his wife and is now with her and someday I will be able to see him again.

Am I really??
You're yellow, the color of joy and energy — two things you definitely bring to everyone around you. It's hard for anyone to be sad or lonely in your presence; your sunny disposition and cheery outlook just won't allow it. The warmth of your personality shines through in the kindness you show friends and family (and strangers, too). Always ready with a lighthearted joke or heartfelt compliment, you know how to make people feel good about themselves, so they can't get enough of you. Yellow is a warm and inviting color for a warm and inviting person — you!

Update!!
I have finally had time to actually post about my fabulous adventure to New York. This was by far the most spomtaneous thing I have ever done. It was totally worth it. We decided a few days earlier we wanted to go to New York to get purses. One of my friends works for Continnenal Airlines and was able to get us buddy passes so we decided to just go. We left on the midnight flight and came home that same day at seven at night. We did New York in a day. I wish we were able to spend more time there but we did get our purses so what we went for was accomplished! Here are some of the highlights from the trip!The subway station. Laura, Jessica and I all bought matching hats so we needed to show them off to everyone!
This is the fabulous Times Square. It isn't as cool in the day as it is at night but still fun to go see!
I really enjoyed the train ride as you can see from my very excited face!! This was taking the train ride from the Newark airport into Manhattan!
What is a visit to New York without Central Park. This was our very last stop on the trip before we headed on the train to get to the plane to get home. It was a good way to end the trip though. Everyone got there shopping done and now we are home and ready to go back for our next fun adventure.
