Conference

What a great conference we had last weekend, I'm all refreshed and ready to go after a nice break from primary planning.  Oh, and I just have to share the great conference helper my sister made for me:

Its a jewelry/craft storage box, and before conference I fill each compartment with some candy.  The kids get the candy that corresponds to each speaker if the can recognize them.  The kids love it and dad & mom too!  I also print off personalized conference packets to keep them entertained and focused.  There are tons of different conference ideas on pinterest and sugardoodle.

I've got a great family, by the way.  Last year I wanted to have a tent for the kids to sit in during conference like King Benjamin's people did - turned the door of their tents toward the temple and the prophet.  I asked my dad to make one.  I just wanted a simple triangular A-frame type set-up.  I should have known it would end up being slightly more complicated, but the kids loved it and it was roomy enough for them to enjoy it too.  Thanks Dad!
