  PICTURES TO COME !!!!!!!!!!

Star Trek

yesterday we got to see the new Star Trek. it was pretty good.m and f covered their ears almost the whole movie. at some points it was confusing. but it was good. the cast was cool especially Spok. he reminded me of the earlier Star Treks. the movie was awesome. my mom said," that movie really stuck with the earlier Star Treks."

Special stake conference

Today we had a special stake conference. Elder David A. Bednar ,from the quorum of the twelve apostles, and Elder Gibson, from the quorum of the seventy, came to visit our stake. I loved Elder Bednar's talk. it was wonderful. after the meeting we got to shake both elders hands. that was a great experience to do.

snowboarding

there is a snowboard/ski program at the Lyon county school district. some of my friends from school and my ward go there. Adam and i have had so much fun. we go every Friday for 6 weeks. we have already gone 2 weeks. we have learned our turns, falls, hills, and how to sprain your wrist. 2 girls today have sprained their wrists. 1 girl i saw sprain it but the other i didn't. Adam and i get rentals there. there are 3 hills we have gone down, galena is a hard one, ponderosa is pretty simple, and flying jenny which is the easiest. these last 2 weeks have been really great except for the sore bum and wrist. but it's worth it.
