Conference Wall

General Conference week-end is always a lot of fun.  Lots of family time, yummy treats and listening the counsel of our church leaders.  We had the normal bingo and talk worksheets for the kids.  This year we did something a little different and also made a Conference Wall.  I put lots of different topics on the wall, like Prayer, Scripture Study, Jesus Christ, etc.  Every time one of the members of the First Presidency or Apostles spoke about one of the topics on our Conference wall, we taped a picture of them on the topic on the wall.  It was fun to see how many touched on the same topics as they gave us great counsel.  The best part of the wall was that by the end of the week-end, everyone who spoke had their picture on the Jesus Christ card.  We were able to use that as a teaching moment about the Apostles duty to testify of Christ and the kids were visually able to see that it had really happened.  It was great.

Of course, it wouldn't be General Conference without yummy treats to enjoy together.  This year I made homemade cinnamon rolls for breakfast Sunday morning.  Luke and Hayley were happy to help taste the icing to make sure it was sweet enough!

 

I love this video highlighting the talks we listened to over the week-end.
