Conference Weekend

On Friday, Kadee and I went to West High School's homecoming football game while we waited for Spencer to get off work. The weather was fantastic and we had a good time. Kadee did pretty well. She didn't like wearing the earmuffs at first but her Mommy wasn't going to let her sit near the band without them. And of course her Mommy was going to sit near the band. Why else would we go. (We seriously went just so we could see the band perform. Their halftime show this year is 'Carmen' and it was pretty good.)

Saturday I was actually productive and while Kadee slept the morning away, I got a lot of cleaning done. Then we both hung out and watched Conference together. My favorite talk was on Saturday morning. It was Elder Hales. You can watch the whole thing here, https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2016/10/media/session_1_talk_5?lang=eng 

What I liked most was the quote, "The calling to be a parent includes the gift to teach in ways that are right for you and for your children." 
I am very much looking forward to teaching Kadee and spending time with her. It's good to know that I will have help and that it will be in the ways that Kadee needs most.

Spencer says his favorite part was the kalua pork I made on Saturday. But really Spencer just enjoys the whole experience and loves being home with his family and listening to all of the talks. 

The kalua pork was really good on Saturday. I slow cooked it for about 13 hours and it turned out great. We had a few people from our ward over after the Saturday sessions and that way I could have the ladies stay and watch a chick flick with me during the Priesthood session. We had fun.

Kadee makes Conference a little different. There were some talks that I missed part of because all I could hear was the screaming. But that's why they print them so we can read them over and over! We snuggled a lot though. I still just like to hold her. Only on Sunday Spencer and I had to fight over her a bit. That tends to happen whenever we are all home anyway. Plus Kadee really loves it when she is held. Heaven forbid you ever put her down for any length of time.
Overall, we enjoyed General Conference.
