General Conference

Today I got to go to the afternoon session of conference. Basically it comes down to having wonderful people that I am about to move in with. I was over at their house yesterday watching conference, and they asked if I wanted to go.






This was where we were. I never noticed on the wall where it looks like there are yellow strips of light, its actually just gold. It's beautiful.




















Jenny Lynn was having more fun than this picture is letting on.










We really were right up against the wall.















This guy was walking around all over the place, before and after. If you can't tell what it says, "The Antis are just jealous, feel sorry for them"

















Going to conference again was really great. I am so lucky. I know that I have been to general conference more than many other people. Some people have only ever been once-if they are lucky. I remember when I went for the first time the session that they did the dedicatory prayer with the white handkerchiefs. We forgot them so we used tissues. Even more wonderful is the fact that I am getting new roommates that are already too nice to me. Dinner, movies, they have been helping me move my stuff. They are so wonderful, I don't have to worry at all because they act as though I have been their friend forever. I am really excited to move in with them. These girls have been wonderful the last couple of days. They somehow just show up or call right when I need them. I've had a pretty hard weekend, and it was nice to have a place to go.

I am also excited for this coming weekend. I am going to Idaho Falls to be with my family this weekend to do some temple work on some family names. I found out today there are going to be 400 names and I am one of 6 doing the baptisms for them. holy crap, that's a lot of water, but I guess it's a sacrifice that I am willing to make. Yeah for the temple and families and conference .

Yay for new roommates! You are so lucky, they're great!

That is so cool about the family names! I have trouble getting 10 names, let alone 400! I should talk to whoever is doing the work in your family! :)
