General Conference

We enjoyed watching General Conference over the Internet from the comforts of our home. It only stopped on us once for a few seconds. The picture was pretty choppy, but the sound was constant other than the one brief pause. Much better than last year.

James played while Jon and I listened and watched the speakers. We had to barricade James into a "safe" area in our living room, since James has found the joy of playing with cords behind the TV and under the computer desk. His favorite part is flipping the switch and turning off the light on the power cord. Mobility is so wonderful! Here is James trying to climb through the saucer which was used as part of the barrier. He is a pretty smart kids. He also tried to move the saucer by twisting it back and forth.

James enjoyed having daddy around so much that he would not nap. He had one nap each day for about half an hour. Then he was of coarse starting to whine for bed at 6:00 each night, but his mommy would not let him go to bed until after 7:00.

On Sunday between sessions, we went for a walk around our little block. We saw another family from our ward doing the same, and they invited us over for some hot chocolate. It was fun to visit and get to know them a little better.

It was a good weekend! I love to hear the words of the prophet and the other leaders of the church.
