Finally. General Conference weekend. I look forward to this two-day event each and every year...twice a year. There is nothing like coming home to family and friends, to the smells of various foods, to listen to the words of the prophets of the Lord. A special spirit fills your heart, fills your mind, as you share this occasion with those you love, with those you adore.
The weekend began with a long-awaited football game between Brigham Young University and Utah State, and it took flight from there.

| Miracle of Miracles! BYU actually beat Utah State, 6-3. Personally, I don't think BYU should have won...their offensive plays were awful. But I will happily take the win! Steven and I were able to watch the game with Rachel (my little sister) and her new beau, Christian Warner. It was a blast to spend time with them, freezing to death in the cool autumn weather! |
 |
| We decided to "FaceTime" with Candace (my eldest sister) and her family after the morning session of conference on Sunday. My niece, Samantha, is absolutely adorable. My nephew, Dallin, is unbelievably cute. Our faces reflect our responses to seeing little Dallin :) |

| Grandma and Grandpa came down for General Conference! They are the best! |
 |
| Mama and Sir Patric Newton, a.k.a. Patric. My mom has to hold him every single time we step outside onto the back patio because he won't stop eating the poisonous acorns! |
 |
| And of course, a weekend wouldn't be complete without my wonderful fiance. I was glad he was able to come up for General Conference with me. Plus, then I could give him awkward "blowfish" kisses all weekend long. What could be better than that? |
I would say this weekend was a success!
He seems to be enjoying the blowfish kiss =] His look is like "Yeah, I'm used to it"
