Okay, so everyone knows that I love soccer, right? Well, Saturday, 29 March, was the Rapids home opener against the LA. Galaxy. It was a multi-stake singles activity where we got a nice discount on the tickets and there was a drawing, which allowed 20 people the opportunity to be on the field (sitting on the player’s benches) while the teams warmed up. Okay, so it probably sounds cheesy, but it was awesome! David Beckham plays for the Galaxy and Cobi Jones is a trainer! It gets better, so who should be there but Alexi Lalas! Cobi and Alexi played on the US team and I loved watching them… so it was pretty cool to think that I was only 20 feet away from them! I think that is the closest I have ever been to a celebrity. Anyway, the game was a lot of fun- we killed the Galaxy 4-0! Go Rapids!

Today was General Conference and the first Conference since President Hinckley passed away. It was a really good Conference. It was neat to see the change in President Monson as he now stands as the Prophet of the church. I was happy that he even brought some humor to the Conference in his closing remarks- reminded me of Pres. Hinckley. We all miss President Hinckley, but it was nice to finally have a chance to sustain our new Prophet, even President Thomas S. Monson.
Well, that’s all I have for you right now. Work still consumes my life… pretty exciting, huh? Until next time…. I love you all!
