Once in a Lifetime


I know I pick on Utah a lot, but there are some really great perks about living in Salt Lake- namely, stake conference in the Tabernacle. Oh and did I mention that our ward was the choir? Yes, I sang in a Tabernacle choir- not THE Tabernacle choir, but I was so excited about sitting in those choir seats and singing with that amazing organ, it may as well have been. I tried really hard to pay attention to the speakers, but my mind kept wandering and thinking about all of the wonderful Saints and General Authorities who have sat in those seats.

How cool is this? I am glad you had the chance to do this. I like how you think-- about who had sat in those seats. I would do the same thing.


PS I make fun of Utah too but my secret wish is to live in downtown Salt Lake some day.

HELLO!! Are you in MY Stake? We were just in there On Sunday with the YSA singing....umm...I have the feeling we're in the same stake. Unless you didn't sing this last Sunday up there...What are the chances?

I had to start again, it came out wrong...You are so beautiful Lindsay inside and out! How awesome would that be to have Stake Conference in the Tabernacle, and to get to sing and sit in the Choir Seat. Truly a wonderful experience I'm sure.

Allison- small world, we are in the same stake! I'm in the Ensign
7th ward that meets in the building on G and 2nd. Thank you for not making a comment on how we sounded as a choir because there are some of us (big finger pointed at me) that aren't usually in the choir, but sang for the sole purpose of singing in the tabernacle. Totally ok, right?

That's So awesome. No, You guys totally sounded so good. And I was impressed by the sheer number of you all. That had to have been your entire ward up there, it was totally full.
And that's So funny that you meet at G and 2nd. We've also gone to that building for the last two years (I live a half a block away from there). We just got moved to the Stake Center since our big boy is in Primary. That is So crazy. I can't believe I never saw you there. I loved going there, loved the building, and all the cute old people. Our new ward is all crazy kids and unattentive parents (harsh, I know).

Pres Monson looks much younger and his hair redder when he's standing next to you...
