Easter

We had a great Easter this year. We celebrated it by having Stake Conference. We learned a lot about the atonement and the resurrection of our Savior. It was a satellite area conference with 58 Idaho stakes involved. Here are some of our precious grandchildren. Kinsley and Aila are missing but you can check them out on their blog
We had dinner after Stake Conference with the members of the Stake Presidency and their families. The Stake Presidency are great men they serve well together. We are grateful for their inspired talks on Saturday evening.

Conference Weekend

Before leaving for Conference we celebrated Abby's birthday at a new place in Rupert called Spinners. Abby made some homemade almond joys for Chad but lo and behold they were cotton balls dipped in chocolate (April Fools) try eating these... they seem to stick to your mouth. The dessert ,however, was a big hit at this restaurant.
We had a great time attending conference. We were uplifted and taught so well. It is so wonderful just being in the same room with the Prophet and those who serve so faithfully with him. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir is so amazing to listen to in the Conference Center. The only session I missed was Priesthood, so as soon as I got home I listened to it on the computer. Couldn't wait until it came out in the Ensign!
