So it was General Conference this past weekend. I wanted the boys to watch at least 1 session of conference each day. So, I printed out their own little activity packets to color and to encourage them to listen to the speakers. They were really excited at first and got right into it. Then 1 hr into Sat morning session, Q asks, "How long is this?" I told him it was 2 hours. "2 hours???That is soooooo long". Excuse me? Um, church is 3 hours & you don't get to sit around the house. Anyway, it was downhill from there. Whine, whine, whine. So by Sunday I just told them to leave me alone so I could watch. Did that happen? Of course not. Oh well. Glad it is online and printed in the Ensign!

Aren't they soooo cute though! Jon T Pants could have used one of those activities packets too!
Three of the cutest boys in the whole wide world! Love the pictures. Maybe next time they'll sit for a little longer.
so glad you caught the "spirit" of conference with a house full of boys on camera. Wish I would have thought of it. I totally feel your pain!
