Conference Reflections

It has been a great weekend so far. Yesterday we were able to watch conference at a friends house who had a satellite dish, so that was nice. Today we were at home, and I tuned into the Mormon Tabernacle Choir program at 9:30 on two different stations. I thought, wow! This is great! We will be able to just pick it up from home, on the radio. The internet was down. It turned out that both of those stations were not planning on airing the conference, and I had to scramble to find a way to get it. I called mom quickly and got ahold of Jennifer. I asked her if she was watching conference, and if so to put the phone by the tv speaker, because we couldn't get it any other way. She did and then said could you hear it? I told her I could and then she said good. I thought she would put it back up to the speaker, but after she said goodbye, there was a click. I thought, oh boy. I called back and asked for mom and she set us up to hear it. That worked well for a time, then the phone cut us off. I ended up calling back two other times for IS support, but we were able to catch most of the conference as consequence.
It is great to hear the words of the prophets. It has been a much needed relief from the pace of life. I have learned a lot from the words I have heard and am excited for the last session. I think our internet is back up and running, so we shouldn't have any more problems. we will see though. Otherwise, it is not that bad having a 'conference call.' LOL. No pun planned, honest!
Hope you all have an enjoyable evening.

B helping mom cook




One day, a while back, Aleesha was cooking in the kitchen and B always loves to help. Well he got fed up and decided to talk a quick 5 minute nap. Aleesha saw this and just had to get a picture of it. It was adorable.
