Conference Weekend

Tobey received some conference tickets since he is in the bishopric, so we decided to head down to Utah for the weekend. We left Friday morning and spent Friday afternoon touring down town Salt Lake as a family. We went to temple square, inside the tabernacle, looked at the outside of the conference center, and even toured the Beehive House. Then, Friday evening we went to Tobey's mission reunion at his mission president's house. After the mission reunion we went to Brandon & Kristy's house. They housed us for the weekend.
Saturday the girls and I spent some time with Thresa (I didn't take any pictures of that - darn it) And then Tobey & I went to the Saturday session at the conference center. It was so amazing to be in the same room as the prophet! I am so glad we went. Then Saturday night after the Priesthood session we played Settlers of Catan with Brandon & Kristy. (Now we can finally play our game at home since we know how to play).
Sunday we watched the morning session of conference & ate lunch with the Marshs. Then we left to come home. Luckily, we were able to listen to the second session of conference on the way home. :)
Thanks again Brandon & Kristy for housing us - we really appreciate it.


Here is a cute video of the girls all singing "I Am a Child of God"

How are you able to watch conference (especially LIVE, wow) with tiny kids?
Any tips for a new mom? :)

I didn't know Tobey was in the bishopric. When did they change it up?

Hey Melyssa, That is awesome that you got to go to conference! We got to go like 10 years ago, it was amazing. I love that you took your picture with all your kids and Tobey. Too cute. You look really pretty! Thanks for being my friend!

Glad you guys had fun. We had tickets for the Saturday session and of course I left them on the kitchen table at home. We wouldn't have been able to go anyway, because all of us caught the flu that weekend.
