Last night the boys headed off to Vernon for a youth dance. Jim and Linda came over and we walked to the local chinese restaurant with them and the girls. The weather was drizzly, the meal was huge and tasty and the company was nice. After dinner, we came home and played on the Wii fit until the wee hours (almost!).
Today was the first day of our two day General Conference for church. We watched the morning session on the internet whle eating crepes in our pajamas. The afternoon session we again watched on the internet sans PJ's and crepes. The kids did an exceptional job of paying attention and taking notes this time, even though everyone was up too late last night. We will probably do a pajama day tomorrow and watch the sessions at home again.
As always, there were some very inspirational talks given by our leadership. The building of 5 more Temples was also announced. The two most surprising for me were the Calgary, Alberta and Rome, Italy announcements. One of my favorite talks was given by Pres. Uchtdorf. He spoke of replacing fear with faith and acting with faith. There was another good talk given about the importance of hope, now that I really think about it, I enjoyed nearly all of the talks and took something of value away from each one. If you have access to BYUTV, I would encourage you to watch at least some of it tomorrow. The sessions are at 10 am MDT and 2 pm MDT. (9 and 1 for us on the west)
The weather has been on the damp side much of the day today, very much needed too!
I'm very tired and getting rummy, so I'll post something that makes more sense later!!!
