All you LDS people know that Conference happened last month in October. We enjoyed watching it in our new house. We did breakfast and had the Moses family over. I stitched as usual and the girls stayed fairly reverent.
I love how Tyler lined up the kids at lunch time so they could still watch but wouldn't be eating in Midgard.
I am still trying to think of good ways to encourage our family to reread the talks. There is so much good content that bears a second, even third or fourth glance. So I came up with the conference wall. All the General Authorities are listed. As each person reads a talk, they can sign the board and get a treat. June demonstrated how this works for FHE one night.
A few signatures have gone up. I think I need to remind people that reading conference talks are an excellent Sunday activity. (You know, along with napping. Whatever happened to Sunday naps?)
I would like to say that I have read more talks. I haven't. But this is because I am frantically finishing the Book of Mormon before the end of the year. However, the wall has made me think about reading them more. That is definitely progress. And when I finish the BoM, I will be all over the wall.
When we come to visit I would be more than happy to reread some of the Conference talks and sign the wall. I was able to listen to all the conference talks this year - even the Priesthood ones. Great, weren't they!
