Wonderful Sunday

It has been a beautiful Sunday. We had ward conference and listened to some wonderful speakers. I love the gospel and I am so grateful to have it in my life. Nothing can bring more happiness than living the gospel and learning to trust in Heavenly Father. I love the Lord. I am so grateful for Him. I am also thankful for the gift of the Holy Ghost, prayer, a living Prophet and for the scriptures. I am happy to be in the new ward that I am in. I already love the people in my ward. Today we sat in front of Robert and Tamara Nixon. They lived in Bryan College Station for four years in the early 90's but they didn't know Grandma and Grandpa Petersen... They were so friendly and kind to us.

The rest of the weekend has been fun. On Friday night we had dinner with Jenn and Jordan Singer, fellow first-year dental students, and then all of the dental/medical students in our apt. complex played volleyball together. There were probably 50 people there. It was mostly the guys playing and the wives sitting around (with their babies) talking and having fun together. We are so happy to live near these people.

Then on Saturday Rob and I spent the day at our hospital participating in the "marathon class." It was a class that lasted all day that combined all of the hospitals birthing classes. It was very helpful and informative and now we feel all ready to go ;). We got a tour and they explained exactly what will happen when we come to the hospital in labor. The l&d and mother/baby rooms are really nice :) After the class we went to Brynn and Danny Snyder's apt and played games. We played a really fun game that is like backwards charades where the team acts out something and only one teammate guesses. It was hilarious. I couldn't get a good picture because everyone was moving so much...
