We had regional conference this weekend. It was so wonderful. I found so many of the talks were just what I needed to hear. And although Earl wasn't able to go (someone had to stay home with Brayden) we were both able to feel the spirit from those talks. I took Spencer and Andraia with me. I was worried that 2 hours would be the breaking point for Andraia, but she did great! My friends Cheryl and Kristin sat on our bench with us, and Mindy's family was right behind us. I know if it hadn't been for all of the different laps to sit on, she wouldn't have lasted as long as she did. At the 1.5 hour mark, she was too restless, so I took her out to walk around the hall. After just a few minutes, we sat on the couch in the foyer and she watched the little babies in the area. She was fascinated with them and sat so nicely while I listened to the speakers. Spencer got many comments from people about how reverent he was. They both did a great job.
We spent time with my family on Sunday at the park. We also went out to dinner with my parents on Saturday. It is so nice having them all so close. They are always here for us when we need someone. (If our ward hasn't helped out first!! They are great, too!)
Hope you had a wonderful weekend!

Ours was a great weekend too. Our nephew (22 years old) was baptized in July and received the Melchezidek Priesthood this last weekend. It was a memorable and beautiful time. He was so excited he was literally bouncing on his toes!
Just wanted you to know that I've linked you to one of my new blogs Mormon Bloggers Speak Out.
The purpose of this blog is to share with the world what Mormons are like in our many facets. What we believe, what we do, how we play, what we do for fun, our thoughts on family, Church, Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, life, standing for truth and righteousness, missionary work, doctrine, our countries, etc. Hope you don't mind.
I enjoyed that first talk so much. It tugged at my heartsrings and I hope others were able to feel it. I loved watching the look on Chris' face when Andraia sat on his lap. Spencer was so good when you were gone. He is such a good kid!
