Conference Weekend
I love conference weekend! And I especially loved THIS conference weekend. I thought Saturday was phenomenal. I loved all the talks Saturday morning and I learned so much about the Tabernacle Saturday afternoon. Sunday for me is just full of tradition. I love making a big, fancy breakfast and watching Sunday morning, doing something fun between sessions and then finishing with the afternoon session. This was the first time in 4 1/2 years we've done that. I love the internet. Instead of going to the church, we were able to enjoy the talks from the comfort of our own home with a big plate of food on our laps. I felt like I was home in Utah. Thank you www.byu.tv! Max had a much more enjoyable conference weekend, too. Instead of trying to wrestle him down in a bench at the church, he was free to roam about the house as he liked. It was fun to see him come over and watch every time there was a song or he heard a new voice.
In between sessions today we drove down to the Marina and went rollerblading. I love rollerblading down there--it's VERY flat, and Max and Blake like trying to hit all the pigeons. The only thing that would have made the day better is an April Fool's joke. I totally forgot to short sheet our bed. There's still time...

So what was on that big plate of food you made? Dad made waffles and for his April Fools joke, he put Banana's in them! I actually thought they were pretty good! Especially with a little whipped cream and more bananas and strawberries!
what does short sheet the bed mean? we taught ruby what april fool's meant and then after about 5 of her jokes, we were ready for the day to be over!
i loved conference, too. you can tell what a failure of a jokester mother i am when my oldest daughter doesn't know what short-sheeting the bed means. i'm not a funny person.
Oh good, Patty. I'm relieved you know. I didn't want to try to explain short-sheeting in a comment. Now you can do the honors.
I don't know what short sheeting means either. My family is not really into pranks, in fact I hate April Fool's Day. I am a party pooper I guess!
Okay, for all you crazies who don't know what short-sheeting is, I tried to find an adequate description, but they were all pretty confusing. Luckily I found a how-to video. Hopefully this makes sense and you'll be able to use the trick next year! http://www.viewdo.com/now_viewing.php?id=131
Thanks for the video, I didn't know what it was either. Did you ask someone to take your pic, its a good one!
I hate April Fool's Day. Does that make me a fool? Anyway, I get absolutely no joy out of playing practical jokes. I wonder why. That's why I don't understand Jim and Pam of "The Office." It's funny to watch, but I wouldn't want to be involved. I guess I'm just lame.
