Hump Day #4- from The Sprinkles on My Ice Cream

   Well, no such luck. In my last post I was hoping for a snow day- but it all melted :( Anyway.... Today is Wednesday and it is time for another Hump Day. If you are just joining us you can find more here.. Today's print  is from The Sprinkles on my Ice Cream. This is seriously an awesome blog! She really does make life sweeter :) This week she shared 2 awesome prints that I just couldn't resist sharing! 
 
The first is a great quote from Elaine S Dalton (the former young women's president) and it is super cute! I love this quote so much!
"What makes you Beautiful" (Post)
This quote is so true! Why be sad and negative, when we can just as easily be happy and grateful? It's all in your attitude!
"Magnify the Good" Post

I highly recommend reading both these posts (links in captions under the pictures)- they are both so awesome!
Happy (early) Thanksgiving!

The Acorn of Honest Inquiry...

If you watched this past General Conference you heard President Uchtdorf's talk, in it he said:



In his talk he also talks about how it is okay to have questions and doubts about the gospel- everyone does- we just can't let them get in the way of our faith. On Sunday a speaker in church was talking about faith. She made a really good point: If Joseph Smith had never doubted, the restoration wouldn't have happened. The important part is that he acted on his doubts. Once he acted his inquiry truly did grow into a great oak of understanding.
You can read his whole address here:

Have a great day!
