My first week of not working was super nice! I feel more awake and excited about things again. I watched Avery twice this week, cleaned and reorganized the downstairs common room as well as the under-the-stairs toy closet! Kevin and I ordered wood laminate to install ourselves in the common room and hallways. We'll have Beth and Ben help tear out carpet during spring break next week. What fun! Ha ha! I also helped Sarah and Megan install some wallpaper at Sarah's new house. I went to Circles. We had young women at our house on Wednesday. Beth taught the girls to play Ultimate Werewolf. Pretty fun!

Conference is this weekend and my kids love conference which is pretty awesome really. Bethany told us about a month ago that she would love to attend conference in person and that she thought it would be so amazing! So, miracles of miracles, just a couple weeks later, Kevin was given tickets to the Saturday evening session. Not only have they limited the number of tickets they give out now (because of the construction that has closed all of temple square and they need to limit the impact of conference on the city) but they have no stand-by. You can not get in without a ticket. Bethany was over the moon! We had four tickets so Kevin, Bethany, Ben, and I went. It was so fun. There's nothing like seeing a place and people on TV over and over and then to suddenly be actually there and in it. Plus, the spirit. And the choir! Wow! We feel so surprised and blessed that we got to go.
