Weekend of Events

Last weekend, some of Danny's cousins from New Zealand were in town. We went with them to the Jazz v. Kings game Friday night where Danny's dad (police officer) let us onto the court to watch the teams warm up. Long story short, Danny's cousins were given a ball by one of the owners of the Jazz, a ball boy rudely took it back from them, but not before they got it signed by several of the Kings' players. Danny fought to get the ball back from them as far as he could, but no luck. So, be on the lookout for a Jazz game ball signed by half the Kings team!
Annnnd, up to our regular affordable seats...
  We had the chance to go to the Saturday morning session of conference as well. We figured we might as well take advantage of living an hour away from Salt Lake since it might be our last Conference weekend living so close. The choir was beautiful and the speakers were amazing. Aren't they always though?
Of the three sessions that I got to watch, here are my two favorite quotes:

-"Offering help really isn't much help at all--just help! ... Would you ask someone who was drowning 'let me know if I can help you' or would you jump in and save them?"-Ronald A. Rasband

-"When it comes to our own prejudices and grievances, we too often justify our anger as righteous, and our judgement as reliable and only appropriate."-President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

I just love conference. The things they say always make so much sense.
