Easter Weekend Part 2

After Sat we were ready for conference to start. You may be wondering who those cute girls are with us? Well, the cute blonde is Emilee Rappleye she is our neighbor and the other girl is Tara Overwater, their foreign exchange student from New Zealand. ( oh yes, her accent rocks! ) Anyway - we knew that Kate would not be allowed into conference and so we took Emilee along to bbsit her while we went in, and Tara is out to see all the sights and things she can while she is in the states and she is not LDS so we of course relished in the opportunity to overwhelm her with mormonism.... Well, when you walk temple square with 4 gorgeous girls and a crazy Kate you get noticed.. It didnt take Tara Overwater very long to find people from New Zealand, including the BYU Rugby team, a couple of their players are from NZ and they promised Tara that they would come to her baptism in NZ if she got baptized, kinda cool! Anyway - we had a great time, We all loved conference and being there in the same room as the Prophet. I even mentioned to security that I was Henry B's 2nd cuz and asked if we could sit closer and he said, go for it, just go down there and sit. But Kev didnt want to move and you can see great no matter where you are, so we stayed on the mezanine. I was surprised how in real life the first presidency are a lot more rickedy and slow to get out of their chairs and fragile looking then they look on TV when you are at home. We headed home right away after the PM Session and got home about 10pm. It was awesome and worth it. I'm grateful for the gospel in my life, for a husband with a great job so we could afford to go, and that he can keep our big huge car running all the while, and for my wonderful children to set the example for a non-member and that we are all healthy and happy and blessed beyond measure.
