Conference Weekend

Conference weekend was fun and relaxing for our family. We went to my parents house, which is always a favorite for Ella. I love conference and this one was no different. I feel rejuvenated and spiritually uplifted. There are definitely some things that I need to do better.

In between sessions we were able to take some family pictures, dry pears, make pear preserves, and eat some yummy food. It was a fun and spiritually uplifting weekend. It was the first conference that Ella got excited about, she was excited to see and hear the prophet. I had a game for her that I got from primary, it was BINGO. She really liked it, she needed a lot of help but she had fun doing it.

She loves my mom's flowers. I am surprised they survived the Summer, with Ella around.
Potty training was a little rough this weekend at my parent's.



I haven't had pear preserves in long time but it is so good. We made more than two jars.

Love the pictures. The orchard looks so green and it looks like it was fabulous fall weather.

Great pictures. Mom told me about your potty adventures! I love mom's new shower curtain! I guess I'll tell her that when she gets her tonight!

What a nice weekend (minus the potty-training)! Cute family pictures too.
