"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Conference Weekend

I just love Conference for so many reasons. I look forward to it every six months. It is easy for me to stay in my home and watch it or listen to it rather than struggling with my kids at church to try to listen to church. I can takes notes and I just get so much out of it. I love to hear the prophet speak and most of the time I feel like he is speaking right to me. I learned so much this weekend and I made myself a rather large list of things that I need to do better at. My kids were good for the most part, they listened on and off, Jaxon was my hardest one and he is just a mini tornado so I had to try to disregard what he was doing during conference so I didn’t get distracted. I painted the girls nails and toe nails and put sparkles on them. They did some bead work and I ironed them together and they were thrilled with their masterpieces. Those beads keep them busy for hours it is so nice. It was a wonderful weekend full of lots of good things and a wonderful spirit.
