Conference Weekend

 Oh- what a wonderful time it is to hear our loving prophet speak.  This year I really tried to make conference fun for the kids to listen to.  It really helped to have different things for them to do.  They each had their own basket of things to do on clip boards, new crayons, a little toy.  Then we had a get to know the 12 apostle game and 5 different candies for them to grab if they hear certain words.  We had a conference wall where they would find the speaker and then write down what the main points of their talk was about.  This was a really good way for the kids to focus on what was being said.
 This conference we also worked on getting our 72 hour backpacks up to date.  They got to wear their clothes in them and eat the food that was in them.  We plan on do that every time so it stays up to date.
 As a mom don't you love it when every one wants to sit on your lap.  At one point I had three kids sitting on me.  I had to ask them to get off after a little while.
