Be of Good Cheer

Yesterday in Fast and Testimony meeting my friend talked about how she was feeling that it was unfair that all these crazy laws are being passed and bad is being called good and good is being called bad.  Then she said she remembered Alma and his people in Mosiah 24:8-15 where Amulon says he will kill everyone caught praying, but that didn't stop them from praying in their hearts.
She said it is the same for us. We can still worship God, and we can still respect the flag and acknowledge Christmas no matter what the world says is right.  I was really grateful for her insight.  Thought I'd share.

And because  I can't have a post without pictures, here's a cute picture of Elle with her hair all curled yesterday.


And since it's a new year, I'm taking pictures again of all 141 Primary kids. (not including the nursery kids)
Here are a few choice shots of the new Sunbeams:

Not too photogenic their first day.  Maybe next week will be better :)
