Conference Weekend

We had such a great weekend watching General Conference.
Saturday was a little crazy. We had a soccer game before the first session and a game in between the next session. Sunday was much more relaxed, and I was so excited to go downstairs and see the boys all set up ready to watch. We printed off a few little pages to color and draw while they were watching, and they were so excited to find the General Authorities. It also made it very pleasant for Erik and I to watch upstairs with Spencer.
Spencer was happy to have us all to himself. Anytime he can get one-on-one attention from mom and dad he is excited. It was fun to see him stand in front of the TV and point to the different General Authorieits. He loves posing for pictures and wearing any hat he can find. He likes to bring me the camera and say "cheese!"
The quiet didn't last for long. One-by-one the boys made their way upstairs, and it did get a little rowdy. They decided to give back massages and that helped them listen for a minute. It was so amazing to listen to President Monson though, and I loved having my little family together to sustain a new prophet. What a great weekend!

Hello,
Sorry to just invite myself to comment. I was exploring some friends blogs and found yours. I believe this is the same Elder Tadje that served with my husband, Tyler Mills, in Brazil. If I am wrong I am sorry. If not feel free to drop a note sometime.

I love the pictures! Especially the one of all the boys cascading down in front of the fireplace. The one of Spencer is pretty cute, too with his silly little smile. It's been so fun lately to see his personality come out more. He's so cute. I think he and Lincoln will be great friends.
