General Conference

We had General Conference this weekend and I loved it.  Mom put together some cool projects for me so that I could listen better to the prophets and apostles. 

We had our very own Conference Center that mom made with pictures of the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.  When they spoke, I moved their picture to the podium.  And there were pictures of things they might talk about, so when I heard them say temples, or families, I could move that picture next to them.  When they got done speaking, I put their picture on their chair.  Then when the choir was singing, Mom and Dad would share the notes they took from each talk with each other, and write their favorite parts on sticky notes under the apostles' pictures.

Mom made some popsicle stick puzzles to put together.  I got them done so fast!  (I bet it took Mom a lot longer to make them than it did for me to put them together.)

Mom also helped me make a Lego temple and an Easter egg laced with yarn.

Here's a closer look at the temple.  Do you like the fountain?  And the guys sitting on benches looking at the fountain?  They rode their motorcycle to the temple.

My favorite part of conference (besides hearing the prophets speak, of course) was the candy.  Mom had four little buckets with different candies and words attached to each bucket.  When we heard one of the words, we got to eat a piece of candy!

Morning conference was the best because Sydney slept through most of it and I paid better attention.  In the afternoon, she only slept through part of it and was totally distracting.  Plus, I was kind of tired by that point and wanted to do more playing. But I'm still glad we got to listen to conference.  It really is awesome!
