Conference Traditions

Last weekend was general conference. I LOVE general conference. It seems like when conference rolls around that I can't go another week. I am so ready for counsel from the prophet and apostles. It is a long weekend - 8 hours of watching conference with the kids. To make it fun for them we have treats and good food. Last weekend we had lots of good food - we had a menu for each session. For Saturday morning's session we had sandwiches, chips, fruit and fruit dip, vegis and ranch dip and cream soda to drink. Saturday afternoon we had the fruit and vegis again with seven layer dip, Texas caviar and chips. Sunday morning I made homemade cinnamon rolls, and Sunday afternoon we had french dip sandwiches and leftovers from the previous sessions. Conference weekend is a fun, relaxing weekend for our family. It is also a weekend of spiritual renewal. I am grateful for a living prophet and the opportunity we have twice a year to hear from him.
