The Art of Catching Grapes and Other General Conference weekend Adventures

Emily will probably shoot me if/when she finds out that I wrote about this.
That's 14 grapes that she caught in her mouth, folks.
But hey, it was a highlight of my weekend.
Among other things, like:
Going home because there was nothing in my fridge. And getting overfed while I was there. We had a bridal shower for my cousin Anne, which was a lot of fun. And then more family over for ice cream after the Priesthood session. Whenever 30+ people are over at my house you know that copious amounts of good food will be had. 

And this:

I couldn't breath, so I mowed the lawn looking like a bandit. In my Red Hat, of course. 

Last but certainly not least...there were good amounts of spiritual uplifting to be had by all. Conference weekend was awesome!! All of the talks had bits and pieces of what I needed to hear but I especially liked Elder Scott and Elder Eyring. I won't say that those were my favorites, because I don't think you can really pick favorites when it comes to Conference. Check it out!

And I guess this wasn't really the weekend because it happened today, but:
Melanie and I successfully changed her extremely flat tire. In under 7 minutes. I enjoyed it, anyway.

  1. Dearest Syd,
    I extremely love your blog... also, your lawn-mowing picture is probably the greatest thing I have seen in a long time!

  2. I just barely stumbled upon this post and the picture of our fridge made me laugh a nostalgic chuckle. Do you ever wonder how we survived last year? Like literally, what gave us the nutrients we needed to keep our bodies breathing and glycolysizing?
