Did someone say Thunder ?

I know its lame to do two blog posts in one day, but I haven't been on in awhile - so i'm going to do it anyway.

So it has been extremely hot here in Provo, especially for this time of year. Usually it is starting to get cold by now, but we are still enjoying 80 + degree weather. And as much as I would like it to cool down a little bit, I'm not sure I'm ready for it to go away. I was looking at the weather for this week and we are supposed to have thunderstorms... wait for it.. EVERY DAY! yikes - I absolutely love thunder and lightening storms, but I have a feeling it is going to be a loong week!

It was general conference this weekend and as always my mom and I went and visited the church distribution in the bottom of the Joseph Smith building in Salt Lake City. I always seem to find fun things in there :) This visit I found two! The first one I spotted was the new Personal Progress books for Young Women.
They are a lovely pink book with the Salt Lake Temple on the front, but that's not the reason  I picked one up. I finished my Personal Progress when I was 14, so it has been 5 years now that I have even looked at a book. This weekend I decided it would be a good idea to go through and do my Personal Progress again. This time I am going to take my time and really work to get the most out of all the activities. It is such a great program and I am really excited to do it again! 

My second find was a mini New Testament. It looks just like the small paperback Book of Mormons, but it is the New Testament. I was super excited becuase I am taking New Testament this fall and I hate carrying my big scriptures on campus so I usually end up just reading on my phone, but I can't mark my scriptures or make notes in class that way. Now with my handy dandy mini New Testament I can!! I am really excited to be able to use it for the rest of the semester!
