Hooray! It's General Conference Weekend! I always look forward to hearing what the Prophet and Apostles feel prompted to teach us, and I love the feeling of peace and inspiration as I listen to them.
Our new ward apparently has a tradition of holding a pancake breakfast the first morning of Conference. We ate a hearty breakfast . . .
. . . and tested our knowledge of the modern apostles . . .
. . . while the little kids ran around the gym.
Back at home, I think we've finally settled on a good way to help the kids pay attention during Conference. I print off "Conference Squares" bingo cards, with a different Gospel topic in each square, and for every six spaces they cover during a session . . .
. . . they can choose a snack after the session. Cheez Its and Gatorade tend to be the most popular items.
Between sessions, we went on a family outing to the YMCA pool. Daniel and Anna were pretty excited to test out their swimming skills . . .
. . . and Joy was excited to swim with Daddy (it was his first time coming to this pool with us).
