I've never posted a video on this blog that was not made with our own video camera, but for some reason, this one I wanted to share. I didn't know what to think of it at first- some guy, dancing goofy in different countries. As the video progressed, however, I started to really enjoy what I was watching. It was interesting to see how people related to Matt. I love how music and dancing can be so magical that it can bring people from all different cultures and various walks of life together... and be happy! Basically, it made me happy. If you've seen it (it's pretty popular), maybe it made you happy too.

There we were- two proud parents, beaming at our oldest daughter, our three-year-old from the back of the Primary room. She caught our eyes and gave us a slightly embarrassed smile and laugh. She couldn't stay still up in front and I'm glad her turn came quickly. I crouched down next to her to whisper the scripture in her ear, reminding her to speak loudly. I wasn't sure she would actually do it. I thought she might get stage fright since she is often shy around others and in big groups.

It is not a bad thing that children should occasionally, and politely, put parents in their place.
I didn't think I was going to stop running up that hill before I encountered it. I thought, "As long as I just keep moving and keep a steady, albeit slow, pace, then I'll be alright." Well, I never stopped, but I didn't keep running either. I fully intended on doing some recon of the hill before running it, but I'm glad I didn't- I might have chickened out. Let me refresh your memory on the trail profile:
