General Conference :)



And how long ago was that?? GEEZE Jennifer... You stink at blogging on time. I apologize for the few followers I have :)
So for general conference this year, we were a little adventurous.. kinda. We went and stayed with a huge group of people at a friends house in Salt Lake. It was a ton of fun! We even got tickets by begging and ended up with plenty of tickets to spare! It was really fun and it was my first time actually being able to go to conference. I did love the experience but I think I love watching it from the comfort of my own home with the presence of my lovely family :) I loved the talks that were given. My favorite talk was probably actually in the Relief Society Broadcast. President Uchtdorf gave a talk on "Forget me nots". He gave us five things to never forget...
Forget not....
1. to be patient with yourself
2. the difference between a foolish sacrifice and a good sacrifice
3. to be happy NOW.
4. the why of the gospel.
5. that the Lord loves you!
I absolutely loved this talk and it really helped me a lot with my life circumstances right now. I have never been able to say that a talk was written and spoken just for me until now. I found a little picture of these phrases from the talk.. It may or may not be my computer background :)

So here are some pictures from this amazing week...

[on a side note... loved watching a whole disk of modern family with the girls while the guys were at priesthood session!]

 The its getting really late lets take pictures with bracelets part of the sleepover :)

It isn't a true sleepover until the pillow fight begins :)
and the girls in the next room tell you to be quiet.... hehe :)

That was my general conference weekend! Sorry it was a good month late!
