Conference Weekend

Conference weekend was absolutely wonderful!  Conference is one of my favorite things because we get a whole weekend to be together as a family and we get to stay in our pajamas on Sunday!  That was Erik's favorite part!  Bria was so into Conference, she even took notes!  I couldn't believe it.  She sat there, for three talks writing down as much as she could and we were so impressed!  That kid is going to be the next General Relief Society President one day!  She is just a straight arrow and wants to always do what is right.  Very sweet.  

Zak loved playing a fun game he made up and Grandpa was willing to play along!  They would put stickers on each others' noses and just laugh and laugh!  It was a very sweet moment!

Of course Derek loves to go all out cooking and we had the best food!  He made cinnamon knots and apple pie.  Zak just loves looking in the oven to watch the cinnamon knots bake.  

Of course the most exciting part of the whole weekend was the announcement of the missionaries being able to leave at the age of 18 and the sisters at the age of 19.  There was so much excitement feeling the room and even tears.  It was just amazing to hear the prophet tell us such wonderful news!  I just couldn't imagine the excitement in other homes of Seniors in high school with that news!
