Great Movies

Lately Aaron and I have watched 2 great movies! See below:

#1 -- My lovely sister-in-law Linsey has been telling me to watch The Ultimate Gift, and I'm so glad she kept telling me over and over to watch it! It is so great!! We rented it the other night and watched it Friday and Saturday night. I'm not going to say much about it, but it is a tear jerker that teaches us what is MOST important in life!

Linsey I finally watched it!! Now I'm going to buy it!!

#2 -- For this movie Aaron and I actually went to the theater! First movie we have been to since I was like a million months pregnant with Abby! We heard great reviews, and decided we just had to see Emma Smith. (it only cost us $2.00 to get into the movie, gotta love the cheap theater and our trusty coupon book!) This was a great movie that was also a tear jerker. Emma Smith was an amazing lady that had a very deep, deep love for her husband, the Prophet Joseph Smith. She was so Faithful, Patient, and Enduring. (there are a million other great words to describe her) As I was watching this movie, I at times felt so depressed. I will never be able to fully comprehend what those faithful Saints had to go through. I wondered if I would just throw in the towel and lose faith and quit, or if I would press forward and endure....... One thing I did learn, when life is throwing me challenges and hard times I will reflect on Emma Smith and use her strength and example to get through it! What an Elect Lady she was!!

Well, that is all for my movie reviews. It is great to be able to watch such inspiring, clean shows!
