General Conference

I'm a little out of sequence here, Travis had these pictures in his phone so I forgot to add them to my blog. We decided a few years ago that since we could get tickets to conference from my Dad so easily that we would try to go as much as we could. It is such an awesome experience. We love it! It is also a real bonus to be able to see the Halls. We have so much fun while we are there, that I forget to take pictures! It's just so much fun catching up with everyone and seeing all the cousins play. The kids count down the days until they can see everyone, and then spend every possible minute together while they are there. It's the best! This October was pretty cool because it was Brody's first chance going to the Conference Center. He was a little nervous about having to walk through the protestors, but he lucked out, and there weren't any that day. He said that he really liked being able to see the Prophet. That's my favorite part too! There's such an amazing spirit there being in the same room with all the Apostles and General Authorities... and hearing the choir! This visit we got to see Grandpa in the hospital and then be there when he came home. I loved it when all the little girls would go into Grandpa's room and sing him songs to help him feel better. The boys really liked playing with Grandpa's new gadgets that helped him to reach things. It, of course, became the new "weapon," and everyone wanted to play with it! We love Grandma and Grandpa and want to thank them so much for letting us stay and not minding all the chaos we brought to their home!
