Quivering Cheeks

Kelly Wood

So basically if you know me at all you know that A.) I can usually get up in front a microphone and wing it for 20 mins in a sacrament meeting or anything else like it (I think that must be my spiritual gift) but when it comes to singing the only place you’ll see me is as I’m running out the back door. Well Sister Haynie asked me, sister rydalch, sister Sears and sister lemmon to do a musical number for zone conference. We had to sing this cool version of I am a child of God. We practiced quite a few times and it seriously sounded perfect every single time, believe it or not haha… butttt zone conference rolls around and i got up there, saw all the people, and we all agreed we were all so scared our cheeks (yes, both sets) were quivering….. Haha sooooo if president and sister haynie who were sitting behind us werent impressed with our voices at least we know we have some insurance lol😅
I WISH I WAS JOKING but I’m not hahahah #mylifesamess 🙂
Other than that my week has been awesome! I had my first baptism, President Cordon is now here as the new mission president and I was warmer than my parents at lake powell!! Karma? ….yeah I’d say so.
Anyway I’m super behind this week so I have to go but I hope you all have an amazing week and stay safe! My spiritual thought of course has to be to tell you all to go listen or read President Cordons general conference talk called “Language of the Gospel” its SUPER good and basically he’s amazing! Love you all:)
Love Ryenne

Small town girl. Lover of stories. Believer in God, family, America, and in finding beauty in both the past and the here and now. I grew up alongside my five siblings as our parents dreamed and worked and picked themselves up time and again while creating their small business . Interestingly, I married my high school sweetheart, who now co-owns his own small family business with his brother- the same business that he grew up in, working alongside his dad. We have five kids of our own (who are pretty cool, if I must say so myself), and both understand the grit and determination it takes to build our own dreams. I feel honored to share our story here and join my parents and brothers in their desire to create a welcoming, positive spot – where we can share stories and resources for those wanting to make memories with the people they love the most.
