Women's Conference


I went to the Friday session of the Women's Conference.  I'd never been before but my mother-in-law Pam was speaking so I ventured out.  I took my mom along with me and sister-in-law Tiffany and friend Anna.  My silly mom would only take a picture with me if she could hide behind me...isn't she cute!
Our first stop was to the bathroom along with the rest of the female population.  They conveniently had the men's bathroom used for women so that's how this fabulous pic came about.  I couldn't help myself.  My mom took the pic and she is notorious for cutting heads out of pictures.  She got our heads but cut out half my urinal!
 Pam got us seats on the floor to hear Sister Beck speak.  Sheri Dew was sitting kitty corner from us.  I was so entertained!

Pam showing us how excited she is to speak.  Her session had 3 speakers talking about their conversion stories.  Pam did fabulous.  She is so poised and graceful (as seen in the above pic).
And for all her hard work she received a Women's Conference bag with water bottle and a coupon for 1/4lb. fudge.  Not bad for a days work.  After we got to go to the art studio of Benjamin Mcpherson.  It was awesome.  His painting of the last supper was on the cover of the Ensign a few months ago.  We got to hear some of the stories behind his paintings and I loved it.

I am glad you had a good time at Women's conference. I agree, your mom is cute. And Anna's hair does look cute short. I enjoyed hanging out the other day also. I wore my earings yesterday and think I might be hooked on hoops. It made me feel like my outfit wasn't quite so boring. We will definitely have to do it again!

Hi Honey, how are we doing?

You tricked me commenting on my blog under your mom, I was wondering who Sandy was, now I know. Hi Sandy! Your daughter is awesome. I love that our boys are the same age too. I hope you guys stick around here and they can grow up together, that'd be so fun. I love Graham, and am excited for when the babies can play together.

Your mom AND your mother in law are beautiful! How fun to go to Womens Conference with all of your friends and family! My favorite is the urinal shot! The ladies in line behind you were probably wondering what in the world you were doing taking a photo of that!? :)

I have to agree with Autumn, your mom and mother-in-law are beautiful! I'm glad that you got to go. I'm sure that it was inspiring. One of these years, I'm going to get there!

Nat started the Host, she said it was pretty good, she was 20 pages in. I meant to go pick it up today but got too busy baking more bread..hehehe, it's so fun being domestic. I'm going to go get it tomorrow. I'll let you know what I think. Was it you that's read Star Girl? I was thinking of reading that one too.
