Dedication of the Bishops Central Storehouse

Nearly two years ago I had the privilege and wonderful opportunity of jumping on the bandwagon in a memorable project.  Last night I joined with many who contributed to this great cause.  Though my part was small in the grand scheme, when my father showed me what he called the "Heather wall," I felt honored.  This building is huge and serves such a great purpose.

I loved pondering the scriptures and learning the principles of welfare.  From Joseph sold into Egypt, to the Savior's mortal ministry, from Alma at the Waters of Mormon, to the early church welfare.  I came to love this wonderful work.  Many days I thought about being in this hallway.

The Heather Wall - when I saw my lil primary kids on the wall, I almost cried.

These were shoots I had the priviledge of learning from Mark Mabry, and shoots of which my girls were able to be a part of.

My Father didn't know at this time I had my camera or I would've been grounded.  Dad with his dear friend Elder Rudd.

I will miss the visits to Salt Lake, and the lunch dates with amazing people. I'm pretty sure those don't have to end.  I love the mexican place in salt lake that as soon as these guys walk in they are walked to their booth ahead of anyone else waiting in line.

President Uchtdorf.  He is amazing.  I love hearing him speak.  When you meet him in person, are their words? Not so much.

Sister Beck.  So much to say.  So much to learn from her.  I love this woman!

For the past several months, I've begged my dad to introduce us.  I also met Sister Thompson.  So wonderful.  I wish I could sit down and visit with these sisters and learn from them.

Sadly Mark couldn't make it but he sent his model.  I smiled at the reaction of everyone around him.

This is Sister Miller, she was in our stake in Colorado.  I came to know her and her husband when dad served in the stake presidency and her husband as a bishop of one of the wards.  So great to meet again in Salt Lake.

A great photo to end with.  What does dad do now?  Haha, he was at work before 7 im sure.

I left with a resolve to develop my talents as an offering, because I love the Lord.  Thank you father for this opportunity.
