I love visitors!!

Saturday could not have been more perfect! The weather in DC was amazing. It actually reminded me of a nice summer day on the west coast. Believe it or not, the evening cooled down and the humidity was nonexistent. My friend's Bryndee and Julie came down for a quick visit...and I loved it! Bryndee and I had a VERY relaxing day. We slept in, made waffles, went to the pool for a few hours, took a nap, got pedicures, went out for dinner, and shopped a little. Could the day of been ANY better?! I think not. Sunday Erika and I went out to the Washington DC Temple. I love that temple. The grounds are beautiful. They are currently showing the Joseph Smith movie in the Visitor's Center. I was grateful for the opportunity to watch the movie again and reflect on the great faith of the Saints. They were continuously kicked out of the places they settled and had to leave everything behind. But, they kept going and exercised great faith. I am grateful for the principle of faith. It truly does shape character and bring us closer to our Savior.
