Conference Weekend

Well, it was time again. A nice relaxing weekend of being able to attend church services in our jammies! Don't get me wrong, I love all the speakers, the messages and the nice spirit that comes with it, but there is just something so incredibly cool about being able to lay out on the couch with snacks and what not and listen and enjoy.
But I must confess, at times I found it quite difficult to lay down and stay awake! And I know for  a FACT that Josh found that part a little tricky too! (Sorry hun!) As a child I can remember just totally DREADING conference and having to sit and listen to a bunch of "old guys" talk. But over the years I have come to actually look forward to it and come away with comforting thoughts and the will to be a better person. We tried to get the boyz to come and sit and listen but that lasted all of about 30 seconds before they were fighting and  messing around with each other, the pillows and whatever else they could do to not have to sit still. So we told them that if they couldn't be quiet for even one talk to go and find something else to do. . . 

And that's just what they did!

Your house sounds a lot like ours. I usually DVR conference so I can go back and watch all the talks I missed or just couldn't hear!:)

Your boys look so sweet and innocent... I can't even picture them causing problems! And I really do think the church should hold services via satelite a little more often... we love watching it in our jammies too!
