I had dinner with the prophet last night! It's true! I'd like to say it was just he and I, but if I'm being honest I would have to say that the entire Mormon Tabernacle Choir and their +1's were there too. My mom invited me as her date to the Tabernacle Choir's Annual Christmas Party at the Grand America. I thought it was such a neat experience watching President Monson and his wife at the head table just chatting it up with their friends. And me... just a few tables away. It was also fun to hear him speak in a non-scripted way, making jokes with his friends. He's so human and such an amazing man. How blessed we are to live in this dispensation with a modern-day prophet to lead our church! Thanks mom for bringing me along!

That is a neat expirience. For all our complaining, we really are lucky girls when it comes to mom's choir. We had got to do and see some pretty cool stuff.
Hey, I can't get your blog to load all the way. I get the posts and the header, but nothing else.
Kinda weird.
That is fabulous!
Wow that is so cool, especially just as a casual get together and to see him just as a normal person. I think that is awesome.
Sorry I missed lunch today. Being out in the north end of the valley, it looked pretty scary to drive a long distance. But I'm glad Isaac could go, and so nice of you guys to treat. BTW-Glad to see you are still fans of the murder mystery dinners. Sounds and looks like a great time! So neat that you got to have dinner with the prophet too. I'm just getting all my comments out here for the last three posts. Merry Christmas!
Oy, I mean south end o the valley or the north end of Provo. I just thought I should clarify my typo.
That is SO COOL!!!!!!!!!!!! Did you shake his hand?
Sadly no. I really wanted to shake his hand, but I was too stinkin' wimpy to go up and ask him. I wanted to be able to tell my girls that I had though. I wish I wasn't such a wimp sometimes.
It was really nice to read this. That would have been wonderful to attend. It's great that you think this is such a good time to live in, cause I just think of the bad things that are happening. Now I'll try to think of the good things and good people and leaders.
