Conference Weekend With the Fam

General Conference weekend was the best! 

My parents and all of my siblings, but Logan were

able to come to Utah for Conference! 

We had 10 extra people staying in our house and 

we loved it!! 

Get ready for a TON of pictures haha

So everybody got here on Thursday and then on Friday we

all went to the zoo! The zoo still had the dinosaurs up

and the kids thought that was pretty cool. 

It was a nice day, but at one point it was a total down pour!! 

SOO much rain, luckily we were inside the reptile 

building at the time, so we just hung out till it calmed down. 

Lots of fun! That night mom and dad watched the kids so some of us siblings 

could go to the temple.  Unfortunately we didn't get all in together, 

but it was still such a great experience and we all went 

out for frozen yogurt afterwards.  It was fun to have a little kid free time together :) 

The next day was conference.  

We got some treats for the kids and put pictures of

the first presidency and some gospel topics in

the treats.  That way whenever they heard those words or saw

those people they got the treat.  

It helped them pay attention for the first little bit of the

first session haha

Listening to conference was amazing as usual.  

I was so glad that we had a basement and a little outdoor

area that the kids could play in while we watched conference. 

It was funny though because as all the other kids ran 

around and played Micah stayed on the couch 

by grandpa almost the whole time! 

He definitely wasn't sitting still.  But he just wanted to 

be on the couch by his bamba! 

helping bamba make breakfast Saturday morning. 

After the Saturday afternoon session Matt and Luke decided

to take all of the kids for a little hike. 

They left from the house and headed to the mountains 

with six kids haha 

I decided to go up and meet them at the parking lot of the hike

So I went up and met them and started the hike.

After a little while of hiking we realized that we were 

running out of time and then it also started to rain. 

We didn't want to turn around, but decided we better.

Pretty much as soon as we turned around it started pouring! 

The poor kids were not too happy about it haha

So we ran back to the car that I had brought up, but not 

before we all got soaked. 

We were all trying to dry off kids so fast when we got home 

that I only got a picture of Micah.. 

That night my sister made these delicious cupcakes! 

Sunday was filled with more Conference and yummy

cinnamon rolls

After the last session we took all of the kids for a walk 

And when we got back we all sat down and had a turkey 

dinner and talked about our favorite talks from conference

That night my dad gave us a family home evening lesson

and it was amazing. 

Having family around is always the best.

And when you mix family and conference it's even better!

Thanks for coming everyone!
