General Conference Weekend

It was my hometown high school's homecoming this week!

So I hurried home Friday to go to the football game that night.

It was probably one of the coldest games I have ever been to

but it was a lot of fun!  It was actually a pretty close game, but

in the end we came out on top!

On the Saturday of General Conference,

we were busy helping my aunt and her family

clean and move some stuff around.

So, we didn't get to hear much of the Saturday sessions.

But I'm working on catching up!

At the end of the day, we went out to Grandma and Grandpa's

house.  Dad got cleaned up and went with the guys to town

for the priesthood session.  I snapped this picture to send

to the cousin/brother missionaries.

So we all chatted and played cards while they were gone.

When they came back, we had a fondue party!
Melted caramel, apples, pretzels, chocolate...the works.

Aunt Jodie just cleanin up the last of the caramel ;)

Then Meg's date, Til, came to pick her up for
the homecoming dance.

His mom made the corsage

Aren't they cute!?
I LOVE her dress.

Hilarious: Jake pulled out his gun
and it 'just so happened' to be when Til was
picking up Megan haha.

So since we were all there on Conference Weekend,
Meg introduced him to everyone haha.

(Translation)

Dear Aleisha,

I know about your crush.  I think Makayla likes him too.  How do you feel about him?  It might make him hate you.  Makayla says he likes her instead.  But I did not tell her about your crush.  You might be in mortal danger.  I think he might not have a crush on you for reals.  Makayla says he looks at her in a special way.

My reading class instructor shared this with us in class today.  She took it from two girls, and at the end of the day she found it in her pocket.  I really wish I had the a copy with the little 2nd grader's handwriting..."mortol danger"....bahaha so funny!!!

LDS Temples

I ran across this video today, and thought it did a

great job of explaining the temple.

What a wonderful blessing they are!
