General Conference

It is one of my favorite weekends. General Conference. The girls built their tent like in the scriptures when King Benjamin people built tents and listen to their prophets. It is a story the girls have learned since they were little.

They have become creative and made hammocks this year to sleep in. Taylie even took her nap in the tent.

It was great. I decided this year to just make little baskets for the girls to try and help us to be a little more quiet. Last year we did the different activity or treat for each member of the twelve and it was kind of loud and hard for us to concentrate.

It really helped and I found that it worked out better for us. We also had a picture of the Quorum of the Twelve and the First Presidency that had coins on each person picture. When that person spoke the girls got the coin on their picture. Each new session the girls had to put the coins back on the pictures of those who didn't speak or they would lose their coin at the end of conference. Allie got them all and Aubrie only missed one it was a lot of fun and helped them listen for who was speaking and help them remember who each general authority was.

We started making cinnamon rolls and Taylie wanted to help. Unfortunately this was the only picture that was taken. We got a little busy and after the rolls were out of the oven we went to go see some of our friends who had just moved back into our neighborhood.
