I absolutely love General Conference weekend, for several reasons. It is always so uplifting to hear the messages of faith and hope. I have been trying to come prepared with questions in my mind as I listen to conference of situations in my life and how to handle them. It seems the last few times Elder Uchtdorf has been the one to really give me answers. If I was as smart as my daughter Emily, I would link you to his talk, but he really reached in and touched my heart and gave me hope at this challenging time in our world and lives. I am so grateful for the words of apostles and prophets, what a blessing. Instead of the nightly news, we need a daily dose of one of the conference talks. I especially loved how Elder Holland told us to move forward with faith not fear! Every generation has its challenges and problems, but we all have the blessing of the Spirit if we will just seek it. What peace it brings me!!!
The other blessing of conference is my children generally try to come home. It is craziness, but the craziness of my favorite kind! What a great weekend. And in October it is Rylie's birthday party, so we have to squeeze some fun time in there for her!
This year we tried going to the Deseret Book ladies night out - - I think we have more fun at home playing!
And...next time, my goal is to get a picture of all the handsome men on their way to Priesthood session! What awesome guys we have!
