This past weekend we had the opportunity to hear from our Prophet, apostles and other leaders of our church during General Conference. I love this time of year! The air is becoming crisp. They days are getting shorter. Holidays are just around the corner ... and what a great way to start this time of year!
During Saturday's morning and afternoon sessions, we piped General Conference throughout the house on the whole house speakers (another thing I have found I love about the house). I busied myself with cleaning and painting all of the baseboards - they were horrible from the previous owner's paint drips and poor maintenance. During the afternoon session, I headed up into Julia's bathroom and painted some fun stripes. It was so nice to have someone keep me company the entire time with inspiring words!
Then, on Sunday I kept my hands busy again. Jaley and I finished up her yo-yo quilt! (pictures to follow) All 1,640 are sewn together ... with 60+ to spare. We still have yet to attach it to the black comforter/quilt. It has only taken over 2 years but it has been worth it! Lots of fun time sewing and chatting with Jaley and a few others who hopped in to help (Kerst, my Mom, Emily, etc).
It was a wonderful productive, relaxing and inspiring weekend.
